How to Be a Carpenter - Aesop Rock
So you want to be a carpenter do you Well it takes more than a hammer boy You'regonna need blueprints and a will to build and Straighten your cap You look like you'vebeen through a war Wipe that grin off your mug You got a sturdy frame Sluggish posture just won'tcut it You'regonna need schooling And and take notes And god if I catch you yawning again You'regonna regret ever asking for my help And dammit you gotta hustle This is a slackerfreezone And where'smy pencil go get your hardhatHere'sa nickel go get us a ruler And a saw and a drill and lots of graph paper I used to have a rope ladder But tattered were the rungs I strung it from the highest willow Trying to hug the sun The seventh level buckled And I tumbled from the summit Now I'mback to reclimbAnd this time light my cigarette from it My stitchin division to vision warfares numb Enough to soak suddenly in a bullet bath And skip stones in the morning as I Lie in color phantom tantrum explicable Sit and pull the petals off wild flower patches Magic happens Behold pity the lowlife parish Doom City barracks left remorse coursed On a horsedrawncarriage by the torch of Polaris To the Badlands where every bridge Collapse right where the crowd stands Where the witches are fireproof And every preacher'sa madman Frigid be the appleseed demeanor towards the bay Where the landshark Parliament swims When they pause to polish they fins The better brains will preach the village Through the city square To the light heavy and middleweightintegrate Slept with sticks and stones in my pillowcase Oohmy bomb'slight simulator Picks barnacles off the tugboat belly Left my spirit home in a shoebox in case I die Got a rugged smokegreenhalo floating inches off the swamp Had that phase when the devil Tree contacts a sparkle in my eye Now step back from the reservoir And let the settlers drink Salvage all priorities and iron out all kinks My house ain'tmade of bricks And straw but never has it crumbled Cuz I stitched the brain'srigidity with symmetry Come visit me It'sfascinating Now here'show its done I'monly gonna show you once So pay close attention Hear me now or hear me never Glue your little eyes to the diagram See the plywood the nails the glue You work every inch Your domain and you must treat it well Keep it clean or it'llswallow you whole Where'sthe Tsquarehand me the pliers Now dammit oh this will never do You have to want the castle Head Up shoulders back Be the materials Know your limits only to break your limits Are you listening God dammit boy pay attention Little bit more juice this time Try it again Yeah a little bit more elbow grease this time Try it again Concentrate a little more focus this time You can kick and scream And yell but damn I'monly tryin'to help Try it again You'renot doing it right Here now yall watch Try it again Stop sulking I'mthe example for real Watch Try it again I'mbout to make it easy For you yall just Watch You can kick and scream And yell but damn I'monly tryin'to help Stinging the hunt The hunt dispatched a pack of wild dog silhouettes All sulking by the skyline Focused with a bonus hunger pain My sincere addiction imbalance stems From a vintage grimace slap to the mug of Ancestral branch camped on the vessels Yes and I abide The laws of the hidden desert survived And every peasant presenteed it On the crescent less deprived With the exception of pleasant finale binges On the great endangered interests Of phantom brigades slaving to save that princess I double the negative To no avail no promised benefits Just delegates peddling pairs of negatives With magnified magnanimous appearance Sandy sinners in opinion shut Now what of the madness fragments Stagnant I oughta make a vision sing my twix Cling to your pigeon wings Vision militia indent benders We'veflooded Hell'skitchen sink Walkin'eye civility simpleton citizen Mixers to kiss the sky in unison Sinister cityblisteredcorporate ruleigansAll I really want'sa nickel to feed my little pigs Big d**kthree cheers to the product Consumer populace feed but never dreamed of the process When a slanted advantage point sort of makeshift Criminals date R**ethe hostage Dream away the blame pain yeah But it seeps through the cracks And drips from the ceiling and smells The rich scent of my tracks All I ever really wanted was a jungle And a jungle I got See it ain'tthe vision It'sthe plot that makes me stop Try it again I don'twant to Try it again I don'twant to Try it again I don'twant to Try it again I don'twant to Try it again I don'twant to Try it again I don'twant to Try it again I don'twant to Try it one more time I'mnot even interested anymore Try it one more time Guitar score
