Spinal Tap

Everything was under water

Like, like solid water

Not like ice, but solid water, y'know?

None of this stuff was there

But you were there and

Not the type you can float in

They say steam is the worst type of burn

Under your head was a pillow

And under your pillow was a tooth

Under the tooth was a sheet

If I could change everything I’d be a leather maker

Under the sheet was a mattress

Under the mattress was the bed

Under the pillow

Under the bed was the floor

Under the floor was

And while you slept

Your brain got rinsed

Cerebrospinal fluids

Took out your trash

In a spirited slam dunk

Swooshing, clear and smoothing

It’s called your nervous system

Think of it as an interior cushion

Night time is the right time

To let your body do its thing

It’s gonna clean that shit up

It has a chance to take a chance on you

This is what dreaming's supposed to do

It has a chance to restore you

This is what dreaming's supposed to do

It's supposed to help you

Your held, a hand

A wet opportunist

Your held, a hand

When your mind did not mind

A wet opportunist

At rest at best

Your held, a hand

A wet opportunist

Your held, a hand

A wet opportunist

Your held, a hand

Weak and anaemic

It scrubs your insides

A wet opportunist

Like the inside of a car wash

Your held, a hand

This is why you sleep at night

A wet opportunist

Your held, a hand

And have weird dreams

A wet opportunist

What a thought to be

Your held, a hand

A wet opportunist

Pacified by your own pus

Your held, a hand

A wet opportunist

A wet opportunist
