Am 
I saw a
E 
dead fish on the pavement,
Am 
and thought "what did you expect"
There's no water round here, stupid,
E 
Am 
should have stayed where it was wet...

Verse 2
Am 
Hello my name is Pip,
C 
Am 
and I would like to speak some lyrics,
Into this microphone that's ampli
C 
Am 
fied so you can hear it.
C 
This piece of diction is the to 'Dis
Am 
traction Pieces',
That's all the shit that flies around my
E 
head and keeps me sleepless.

Verse 3

Such little food for thought my fuck

ing brain feels anorexic;

So many typos when I write, oh,

I'll claim I'm dyslexic.

I've got your poem here,

I've out it in this envelope...

I'm setting fire to it; hope you

all can read the smoke!

Verse 4
Am 
Most people where I live don't
C 
Am 
know me and I fucking like it!
Some people where I live don't
C 
Am 
like me and I fucking know it!
Some heads won't know my
C 
Am 
name or give me a look, since
E 
Am 
I flow kinda strange like spina
E 
Am 
bifidafootprints.
Ha!

Verse 5

I flow kinda strange like spina

Interlude 1

bifida footprints

Verse 6
Am 
Nothing's original, I stole
this flow from the creator,
And from some others too,
can't think right now I'll name them later.
If I say 'fuck' a lot well then
I may gain more attention;
E 
Am 
If I say 'cunt' well then with some
of you there will be tension.

Verse 7
Am 
I find this interesting 'cause in
the end they are just words,
You give them power when you cower,
man, it's so absurd.
But all that was covered by Lily Bruce,
back in the day.
Dm 
Am 
Nothing's original,
now I'm repeating what I say!

Verse 8
Am 
Paralysis through analysis
could stop me here
But that'd just be an excuse
to run in fear!
So I'll brandish the blandest man's
anguish with a round fist,
Directed at the throat of any

Verse 9

man to call me spineless.

I will brandish the blandest man's

Interlude 2

anguish with a round fist

Verse 10
Am 
I see these rappers that say things
like 'no homo' and such;
Dm 
Am 
It always seems maybe  the lady
doth protest too much...
Dm 
Am 
I'm really speechless but I speak less
than you might imagine
E 
Am 
Sometimes I stutter and I sputter
E 
like the words are catching.

Verse 11
Am 
I'm known to write about the shit
most people won't discuss;
Some find my music's too intrusive
with their words and such.
You see a mouse trap ' I see free cheese,
and a fucking challenge!
But you stay quiet for fear of
tipping the balance!

Verse 12
Am 
When it's horses for courses
my horse is distorted
I bought it for four quid then
forced it through horse shit!
E 
Am 
We walked through these morbid
remorseless discourses,
And discussed these disgusting
new sources.
C 
Am 

Verse 13

When it's horses for courses

Interlude 3

my horse is distorted

Verse 14
Am 
I've seen the world; I've seen the good
and the shitty bits;
And all I've got to say is "god damn,
y'all are fucking idiots."
Some people heard my words
and thought it meant they knew me
Truth is ' I don't exist; I'm just
E 
the soundtrack to your movie!
Am 
'Cause I'm

Verse 15
a background figure
in a story that's all descriptive,
And what I feel's just felt for you
to hear me fucking spit it!
E 
Am 
I jump in many different heads,
E 
through these words and poems;
Am 
Always hoping maybe the next
leap will be my leap home.

Verse 16
Am 
Ziggy says that if I keep
writing this shit
There's an eighty percent chance
that Al can make it a pop hit.
E 
Am 
But Al's an alcoholic and I'm a
E 
fucking schizophrenic,
Am 
So I'll close my eyes on this
whole fucking world and that will end it...
