lyrics

"I'm feelin greedy today.
I'm gonna take ev'ry human form.
I’ll take astronomical and nominal relations.
I’ll take natural phenomena for rations.

I’ll perform ev’ry part in the play:
The drunk, the junkie, the missing wheel.
Wanton and wobblin and wantin for nothin,
Straight and strangely sweet I can make this change.
Take this little cliché and make it literal.
I'll take the rivers for collateral.

I'm takin every street in this town an I'll turn em into shortcuts.
An I’m takin the seconds and turnin em inside out,
Takin up, takin back, takin everyone's turn.

A harmless man overheard me and held out a cup to me and offered help.
I was too tight to be polite, cause it’s a heavy rain an I’m feelin greedy today.

I’ll take anything left unfinished.
I’ll take a bite an I’ll get a jawfull.
I’ll take this whetted wedded woman into my own hands, tender and legal
And I’ll take a photograph.

I'm gonna take advantage of what I take for granted.
I'm gonna take the whole day, whole day.

The day took off, like a private jet
Once I said it and settled up with myself.
I can make this change, you can bet.
Why feel remorse if there’s no recourse?
An a greasy palm agrees.”
