*Aesop Rock*
2
I can take my finger off
3
Old dog, old trick, new twist
4
Like actually take the finger off
5
Wrap it in a blanket as you would a severed horse head
6
Mail it to a friend you wanna pinky swear more with
7
And should they need a forearm
8
Or something they can practice drawing skulls on
9
Cut it from the shoulder while the saws warm
10
The full appendage really make a world of difference
11
And include it to a 30 teeth to chew out all your critics
12
32 would have been perfect
13
2 were casualties of its-its
14
I always wanted radder things for Christmas
15
The rest were cool
16
Im shipping out a torso in the AM
17
You should learn to hit the organs every time at 40 paces its important
18
I cant explain why now by the way
19
Legs in a crate delivery by today
20
If a uniform man knock-knock; sign his documents
21
You shouldnt have to walk out to the mailbox for the other shit
22

23
My Mom was a lunch-lady When I was in elementary school
24
She was outside during recess; she had a whistle and I thought that that was cool
25
She was really nice to all the kids who didnt have a lot of friends
26
She would give them hugs and tell them jokes or shed play catch with them
27
And my dad worked at the Laundromat which was really cool to me
28
Id get to open up the washing machines and clean them out and collect the money
29
And Id open up soap dispenser and put lil boxes of soap inside
30
I knew how it worked and I was good at it and helping out filled me with a sense of pride
31
I would meet all kinds of people there and Id look them in the eye
32
And Id say, Hi, excuse me, but do you mind if I shine the glass while your clothes dry?
33
*Kimya and Aesop*
34
My Whole life is a delicate cycle
35
A delicate cycle
36
A delicate cycle
37
*Aesop rock*
38
Inside a jar with a lid, a giant arm with a head
39
They said it used to walk upright and like New York after 10
40
One day it woke up out of order; nothing more to extend
41
Delicate cycle in the alpha of it's orbiting Zen
42
When in a personal skill has already poured it's best
43
A conversation can be riddled with exorbitant debt
44
And you dont know it but I know I owe you more than Ive kept
45
So if you find a biohazard by a door on the step
46
Maybe it couldnt find its faculties, but swore it would help
47
Wanted to be a larger part than its abnormalcies let
48
Hang on, Im over knighting eyes with a headlight deer-stare
49
One up, Bin-Ban, UPS, and ear pair
50
Wear em if you need a new perspective on a weird year
51
And one day when Im better we can square away a fair share
52
The last frame silhouetted by the sun was an air mail stamp on a still warm tongue
53
*Kimya Dawson*
54
I was 26 years old the first time I lived in a house with a washer and dryer in it and thats the year I bottomed out
55
Maybe what was missing was the sense of community that comes from hauling your big old load out in public and airing your dirty laundry
56
And the company of other people who also dont have the amenities
57
At their convenience in a home thats so set up that they never have to leave
58
I miss the smell, the dust, the coins, the trust, the squeaky carts, the vibrations
59
The bucket full of bleach, they dryer sheets, the old pay phone, the giant sink
60
Id watch my daddy mop the floor, and my heart started with a quarter
61
Id watch my daddy mop the floor, and my heart started with a quarter
62
*Kimya and Aesop*
63
My Whole life is a delicate cycle
64
A delicate cycle
65
A delicate cycle
