the challenge has always been
comin' in on the downbeat
keepin' it funky, steady
like a surgeon's fingers, but cool
like a moose with sunglasses
wrestling sumo paralysis
I'm outweighed. staring at a blank canvas
I'm snow-blinded, waiting for the bus
well, what the fuck can I say
where is Fred Astaire !?
where is Gene Kelly and Debbie Reynolds
where is the transitional grace
who stole my god damned segue
I'd like to catch that little bastard
give him a blanket party
where is the secret door
I've pushed against every spot
on all four walls, and I'm still here
in the same fucking room
but I ain't cryin' about it or nuthin' mind ya
just a little impatient this morning
my wings are flappin' like a phoenix out of hell
just a little too short
for inter-celestial flight, and I really had my sights
set on the milky way
