Die Alone

Scritti Politti


RAPPER: Disconnected inter-connected, I wrecked it 
GREEN: Not what the letter of the law suspected 
RAPPER: Candy and Sublime are friends of mine 
Maybe I'll have met 'em in the mists of time 
Whenever hold tight to what (what) to whatever I got 
And how I'm going to get to the whether or not 
GREEN: We oughta see through this 
RAPPER: Oh we do this yeah 
BOTH: Discencus is our word for today, now is that OK? 

FEMALE: Round and round 
Round and round 
GREEN: Round and round and round 

RAPPER: I'll make an incision, sleep like volcano (oh yeah, it's not 
better) 
I'll make the confession, good 'cause I say so (oh yeah, it's not better) 
I'll make an admission, big like neutrino (oh yeah, it's not better) 
I'll make a decision, I'm all ones and zeros 

GREEN: Throw me up 'n' come over 
Throw me down 'n' come under 
Roll around in the clover and wonder 
So you were the alone 
Since I was a boy 
Hold 'em down and we know you'll die alone 

RAPPER: Yeah, let a thousand thoughts contend 
I can hear myself thinking but it all depends 
GREEN: It's like a Tower of Babel 
RAPPER: Unable to get your fix on it 
GREEN: Get your kicks on it 
RAPPER: I bet you're sick with it, tell you how it is 
White grey for your livelong day 
GREEN: Refrigerator humming 
RAPPER: You're going or 
BOTH: You're coming 
RAPPER: You're numb enough to tolerate the pain 
The penalty for gaining an insight, damn right 

FEMALE: Round and round 
GREEN: Round and round and round 
FEMALE: Round and round 
GREEN: Round and round and round 

RAPPER: I'll make an incision, sleep like volcano (oh yeah, it's not 
better) 
I'll make the confession, good 'cause I say so (oh yeah, it's not better) 
I'll make an admission, big like neutrino (oh yeah, it's not better) 
I'll make a decision, I'm all ones and zeros 

GREEN: Throw me up 'n' come over 
Throw me down 'n' come under 
Roll around in the clover and wonder 
So you were the alone 
Since I was a boy 
Hold 'em down and we know you'll die alone 

We know you by now 
We know you by now 

Throw me up 'n' come over 
Throw me down 'n' come under 
Throw me up 'n' come over 
Throw me down 'n' come under
