[Verse 1: Joe Horton:]
Sparkling diplomat ‘ Fantastical fuck you
Passive attack, tactical glove slap for the gun duel
Frantic fool flips static channels for facts that he can handle
Like love taps to the chin, it’s understandable
Back when he was trafficking in Africans
Guilt crept into his abdomen and grew
He named is Lucifer
Velvet fist shatters his glass mandible
With one elegant thrust, a fancy uniform, and a tuning fork
[Chorus: Joe Horton:]
In his neighborhood explosions in the sky
Only happen in July instead of every single day
He keeps repeating his allegiance to the sequence
Even after all the colors fade back to smoky gray
They don’t hide it ‘ They put it right in his face
They don’t hide it ‘ They put it right in his face
They don’t hide it ‘ They put it right in his face until he likes it
Control is a helluva drug
[Verse 2: Joe Horton:]
Nobody does it better than us
Chatter in the dust ‘ Malignant patterns re-imagined as trust
Ignorance ‘ Too much information
Freedom under influence ‘ God over a blissful nation
Modern convenient come anemic, there’s no secret
We’re leeching the ecosystem, addicted to cheap excess
I’m not a misanthrope, some people just don’t listen close
Definition sickness, shit’ll slit your throat
Comb the coastline, with no sign of the ocean
Tide’s coming, hit your pose swimmer ‘ Hold it
Only the chosen got enough rope to dip their toes in
Castaways bake in the sun, chained to their own sweat
Exchange platitude ‘ Pray for the flood
Fake gratitude ‘ Same as it was
Save some shame for the next generation
All bite and no bark ‘ Nothing more sacred than our taste for blood
[Chorus: Joe Horton:]
In our neighborhood explosions in the sky
Only happen in July instead of every single day
And I remain forever debted to the favor
So unless I’m singing praise there’s not a thing that I can say
They don’t hide it ‘ They put it right in my face
They don’t hide it ‘ They put it right in my face
They don’t hide it ‘ They put it right in my face until I like it
Control is a helluva drug
