lazaretto

My veins are blue and connected
And every single bone in my brain is electric
But I dig ditches like the best of aem
Yo trabajo duro
Como en madera y yeso
Como en madera y yeso
And even god herself has fewer plans than me
But she never helps me out with my scams for free though
She grabs a stick and then she pokes it at me
When I say nothing I say everything
Yeah when I say nothing
I say everything
They threw me down in the Lazaretto
Bored rotten bored rotten
Making models of people I used to know
Out of coffee and cotton
And all my illegitimate kidsll be gotten
Thrown down to the wolves made feral for nothing
Quarantined on the Isle of Man
And Im trying to escape any way that I can oh
Any way that I can oh
I dont have no time left
Time is lost
No time at all
Throw it in a garbage can
And I shake gods hand
I jump up and let her know when I can
This is how Im gonna do it
They wanna blow down the prison
Theyre lighting fires with the cash of the masses
And like the dough I dont fall down
Im so detroit I make it rise from the ashes
