Marmalade 03:42
Off the tip of my tongue, let me give you a taste. Your bell head get rung, all your senses encased. Collect what I want to, I'm taking my place. I'm this'n and that'n and tit'n for tat'n. You're looking at the candlestick. Wax base. set match to wick. There's a name for the flame on the tip. It's yours truly. Burning longer than the core of the earth. Get on the floor while I finish my verse. I've come to disperse all my worth with fervor and mirth and a certain something that you can't put a finger on. Behold the lexicon dawn. BREAK THE BANK, BREAK THE BANK! GET IN THE DUNK TANK! (x2) SWING LOW, SWEET CHARIOT! OFF THE RADAR, OFF THE RADAR QUIT YOUR DAY JOB! ....... Cause now you work for me- from the left to the right to the in-between. You see what I did there? I aim at the sky and breathe life into dead air. And we've all been there. We've all been scared and we're all still here. Expand your ears. This passionate fashion is oh so sincere. Now sit up out your chair and just scintillate your whole atmosphere. (x2) Marmalade... mix that marmalade. Now you've got it made There's a golden sphinx at the peak of that mountain. Now that seems like a lofty endeavor, but let me tell ya; The path is that way. No barricades. It's feeling like a balmy walk right now. So keep all of your shadows tucked. Clamoring for a badminton racket to swat at a Mack truck. No, you don't need much, just your wits, your will and your sense of touch. Well, it's been said that I'm a mensch and I'm inclined to testify to something along these lines. When the speaker gets to bending I'm in your mind every time. Once in a while, you gotta shake your hair off, get your Nair on. Once in a while, you got to get sick, you got to get Air Borne. This here is a rare form born from mysterious origins that a mere mortal couldn't even form an opinion on, eons and eons were taken to forge the frequency that we on. (x2) Marmalade.

Walnuts 03:30
Walnuts, got a schtick you won't believe. Walnuts, keep it light, keep it clean. Walnuts, take it easy on your knees. I call 'em like I see 'em and I see 'em getting weaker. Walnuts, shake your boobs to the beat. Walnuts, set fire to your seat. Walnuts, make you bob and weave. The minute that it's finished you be hitting repeat. You have to believe me. I'm on shore leave from the normal ways of doing this. A gifted, cataclysmic lip gymnast, a magician, I think you get the gist of it. I think you just had your first taste of the first place pacesetter with the letters put together unfettered by the laws of the general consensus. The consequences are immense, talking George Wendt measurements. Knee deep in the beep-beep temperament. I keep it loose lipped with the penmanship permanent. Now I'm earning it, learning a trade. Nowadays I get around town by parade. Navigate your way to the stage and strangely your legs start changing their place. Now move something like you got a name for it. Now move something like you got a name for it. I know you might think that it's a bit late but Old Faithful is here to set you straight. Now shake something like you're getting blamed for it. Now break something like you're getting blamed for it. (music break) There's only so many things left to do. When I'm doing my job you're doing more than a few. Now wave something like it got flames on it. Now wave something like it got flames on it. You can't beat that with a stick, go get me a switch. Lick after lick so slick. Feel the snare hit, put your frame on it. Feel the snare hit, put your frame on it. (chorus again) Come off it, I'm a prophet, a professor. I'ma teach you bout the worm. These dumb job descriptionless wastes of breath are at best an unpaid intern at my firm. Squirm to the rhythm, keep the synergy going. I'm transporting more booties than Boeing. All up in your earlobe, the science so piercing. Serious king, a delirious thing the way I Siiiinnnnnngggggg. Perfect pitch, click the mic switch and watch how the kid gets to sinking your prices. Steamroller Joe, left to his devices. About as iconic an image as Isis. This is the truth and not even the half of it. Ruling the roost with a lucid advantage. To the point, on the dot 'til I'm ready to dip. I put my proton pack on my back and I split.
