Jumping The Great White

"Theres no censorship in heaven"
A satire for the dead man with open eyes
Every day brings new questions
New brain cells wasted if not occupied

Its so natural, clear as water
I can touch it when its so far off the scale
Its so true yet it lacks virtue
You breathe in where I try so hard to inhale

I won't be the odd limb washed up on a red tide
The shark's bark is much much worse than its bite

Jumping the great white
Jumping the great white
Jumping the great white
Spilling my electrolyte,
Jumping the great white
Jumping the great white
Movin up movin outta sight, outta mind

Basic chemical reactions
The rollercoaster moves up and down and around
With unequivocal refraction
And everybody stays seated, staring square at the ground

I ain't no chemical not me no chemical
My ears are open to your slogans and your paradigms
Your first breathe here could choke you
Your last words could tell you your answer in rhyme

Oh I wanna glow, I wanna spill out on a dark night
But the shark's bark is much much worse than its bite

Jumping the great white
Jumping the great white
Jumping the great white
Spilling my electrolyte
Jumping the great white
Jumping the great white
Movin up movin outta sight, outta mind

Thorn in my side.
