Jambi Cafe

[Verse 1: Kimya Dawson & Both] I wish that your headaches would subside, my friend And that your healing isn't just a case of double contact lens I've got my name down for table at the Jambi Cafe So I can "Meka Leka Hiney Ho" all of your pain away And I am outside D's Variety; I'm up on the brick wall And it's the first time that this tongue of mine has licked a fireball I close my eyes and feel the burn and say "Yeah, bring it on" I feel weak, but I'm trying to prove to myself that I'm strong I feel weak, but I'm trying to prove to myself that I'm strong [Verse 2: Aesop Rock & Both] I heard you ate shit at the skate ramp Two left feet watering a face plant Ah dude, you know that "skate or die" is just a term The latter half is fully independent of the first Still I get it you were curbside, sentenced to observe From the low-risk prison of a sedentary perch All jittery, vault triggering your inner tomboy Timidly slipping into the military convoy, dang Lose trucks aim for the fun box Juiced up, cruising over urethane gum drops You hit the kicker warp speed yelling "Punk rock!" Turns out plywood's not a fan of tough talk, oof Cued up a slow-mo heave-ho Everybody staring at the airborne freak show Scraped knees and a very bruised ego You're a good kid just a goofy Knievel The good news is it really doesn't matter The other good news is an apple Jolly Rancher And it won't heal wounds but it will heal moods And it's sweet and it's sour and it's green and it rules Can't do much so the cut won't sting But you can make a couple taste buds go z-z-z-zing Can't do much so the cut won't sting But you can make a couple taste buds go ziga-ziga-zing [Verse 3: Kimya Dawson & Both] If you got bit by a viper from the Amazon I would sneak my dad's X-acto and cut X's in your arms And I would suck out all the venom causing chaos and confusion And replace that shit with a Swiss Miss and Ovaltine transfusion And I'm on the stoop at Joe's and I am just a little kid And it's the first time that this tongue of mine gives a blue Raz a lick And all that I can say is "Holy shit, guys what is this?" What could I have done to deserve such awesomeness? What could I have done to deserve such awesomeness?
