Earthling - First Transmission текст песни

I know who I am

Im not who you think I am

I know who I am

Im not who you think I am

I know who I am

Im not who you think I am

I know who I am

Im rock

Im roll

Nat king cole

Schatzakovic drowning in a fish bowl

Earthling something you can never get a hold of

Baby took a load off

And then she strolled off

Whistling

Hummin

Thumbin a ride

"driver wont you take me to the other side? "

Im a book

A poem

By leonard cohen

Son of the dice man

And I wont stop throwing

Im boris karloff

The man they could not hang

Im a ruffneck romantic

Talkin that slang

Im jesus christ superstar

Driving around in an old yellow car

Im jumping on the balcony

Landing on a bigger man

I can fly

I fly to japan

Hail stones falling on my dreads

Reminding me of something hendrix said

Tunes from the room

Come back on many levels

Sounds from the earthling swing and dishevel

Im pollyana in the way that I portray

Poo poo

La la

I kiss you on a good day

Hey little beetle

Sliding in my bath

When you flip on your back

You really make me laugh

I used to kill worms when I was a kid

Like mr. mclaren, someday Ill kill sid

Crazy how my girl wants a simple life

Shes a simple schizophrenic but we get along fine

Im a young parisian,

Maybe Im mistaken

Maybe Im cuban

Maybe Im jamaican

I know who I am

Im not who you think I am

I know who I am

Im not who you think I am

I know who I am

Im not who you think I am

I know who I am

I never say "never"

I always say "more"

I know the score

I know what to look for

I know who I am

Im not who you think I am

I know who I am

Kickin like a kung-fu shakespeare

Another girl another planet

On the corner, just wasted

Oh gosh

Oh gosh

Oh juliette binoche

Im on my way to babylon, by bus

Im a big bloke

When I smoke, I dont choke

"hi malachi" lets talk about hope

In the beginning

Head spinin make me dizzy

Im the mirror man

So dont ask who is it

London is my city

Jamaicas my country

Africas my history

It aint no mistery

How I came to be

Earthling-free

Sitting in ilford watching tv

Wheres uhura

On an adventure

Did she touch your sexual centre?

Cursing

Never seen an earthling

Never seen a microphone

Microphone

Now Im all alone

Lost in my head

On the road until tomorow

Im double demented

Like william burroughs

P to the I to the m p

Pimp

Sako urinocho reading iceberg slim

Im marcus garvey

Im harvey keitel

Im the ghost of a dog chasing edie brickell

Its crazy perplexing

Im hexing like a haitian

Im an arowak indian

Picking pockets like fagan

I know who I am

Im not who you think I am

I know who I am

Im not who you think I am

I know who I am

Im not who you think I am

I know who I am

I never say "never"

I always say "more"

I know the score

I know what to look for

I know who I am

Im not who you think I am

I know who I am

I know who I am

Im not who you think I am

I know who I am

Im not who you think I am

I know who I am

Im not who you think I am

I know who I am

I know who I am

Im not who you think I am

I know who I am

Im not who you think I am

I know who I am

Im not who you think I am

I know who I am

Im michelangello working on a totem pole

Im gallileo studying shinto

Im the rest of the earth giving birth to a baby

Grasshopper, tell me about slavery

Im in a sauna, watching television

Yeah, tripitaka gave me permission

Im that man in 1686

Saying black people come from venus

Yeah

I saw her reading poetry

Practising verses

Whats the meaning of 33 degrees in the morning ?

It aint easy man

It aint easy
