All I Want

All I wanna do is
Lay low
Blaze Dro
Let the day go
All I wanna do is
Play some games
Go into space mode
All I wanna do is take a day to reset
Catch my breath and get to facing the next
When I’m ready for some faking and fretting on everyone’s vacant expressions
Flipping the pages at the pace of “Break Ya Neck”
Hello patrons, place your bets
Who can say which way he went?
Who can play the games he claims are all in jest
While I scoop two plates of the main event
That cuckoo brain’s all awash in flame while I’m watching it spraying mace and phlegm
Yeah, Q U A’s got a lot to say, but I’m not just taking the space to vent
I’m making ‘em wrestle
Got Jacob baked in a pretzel
That spladle stay ‘til I let go
Making faces’ll get you no attention
Those testicles'll get tickled ‘til I’m sure you’ve learned your lesson
And then we goin’ to fetch some din, I’mma bring you to Buca di Beppo
Speaking of who wouldn't get most of the bread thrown
You can settle for the best of the necro specials after I do the euguggliatta
Forgot I’m the Long Dong Dalai Lama?
Singing the Thong Song with your father?
Dripping in fondant, in a sauna?
Got me a spliff, and I'm chewing a neck bone
But all I wanna do is not eat animal parts
Y’all tearing families apart and getting some terrible farts
Damaging hearts
Grease and gristle going where it can start planning to cram in a dark cranny and slam into park
Damn it y’all
All I wanna do is
Eat potatoes
They’re fuckin great
So grab a plate, bro
‘Cause all I wanna do is
Make more of the homies face toward the only way forward
And all I wanna do is say one day you’ll regret the taste of death
But I think I’m wasting my breath
I stay to the left of the place they make painstaking effort to name the center
I’m way too deft to put much faith in blatant meddlers fake as them
Hello, hey, let’s take a swim
Who can guess which cage I’m in?
Who thinks yesterday, the catch of the day was filleted in the laser gaze of Invader Zim?
I play pretend on a weighted sled with gaiters baited to the brim
When they come sniffing, that’s when I get to taking fins
That’s when I get to making fibs
Fiddlesticks
I ain’t got that shit, go fish
I ain’t a rocket scientist, I’m just high as shit
S’why I don’t make no sense
No, no, no, no
I’m not gonna part with a mile, you won’t get a goddamn inch
I’m sick of you walking off with my moccasins
The toe keeps popping its stitches
I got a decision to make
And I’m thinking you may wanna not be the cause of indifference
You got me deplenished
Probably shocked at my reticence
Betting I’ll copy your interest
Nodding and bobbing along as we listen
But I’m not in the targeted audience
Difference is, Quadro is already potty-trained
Dripping on top of these crawling, incontinent children
All I wanna do is talk to you about that stupid doo-doo mouth that you keep spouting all that putrid dookie out
If you have the power to cool it down, then do it now
How many humans think they’re truly Doogie Howser?
Fuck the Dunning Kruger crowd
The rubes abound
All I wanna do is
Scrape those mangoes from where your brain goes
All I wanna do is
Take hold of those inane lobes right through your face hole
‘Cause all i wanna do is maybe pay some respect to the way you’re blessed just to be able to pay attention
And when it wanes, you get replaced with a brainless pest
You’re falling prey to the great deception
And every day I’m less afraid of the way it ends
Hell of a phrase, I’ll say it again
I ain’t afraid of the face of death
I may maintain some basic weapons aimed at the nascent threats that shape where I place my steps
I try to stay alert to this plane’s fun little games and play ‘em my best
While I’m wide awake to the purpose of pain, and some of the ways nature selects
What a graceful mechanism
It’s requisitional
Let the little ones guess, and go check ‘em all
Test the rhythm
Reflect the winners
And spade graves for the rest
It’s the same on many physical levels
Miniscule cells to the individual
Building to metaphysical realms connected to vague space in our heads
I do the same thing with myself
Hop in and flame-bathe for my health
It might sound way strange, but it’s basic maintenance
Make changes or else
If you lose your way, then say you need help
But the usual claims just make me check out
‘Cause the same damn traits you think make you special gotta get let go to save our house
And all I wanna do is find out how we’re gonna bounce around these obstacles that keep popping up as we’re knocking ‘em to the ground
I’ve found a lot
I spot ‘em walking ‘round the block
I’m down to ponder how to stop it
But if all you want is talk, I’d rather not
Yah yah

Blessed

Look at me, I got so many blessings
Look at me, I am so very blessed
I did, I did, I did, I did, I did the iditarod trail
Used to be like “woe is me”
Refused to believe I could ever get unstuck from the clutch of the web I wove
But it’s easy to see that I’m better now
Didn’t know my will was free
Assumed I’d be getting what I get
Until I figured if I try to understand myself, I might just get to where I’ve ended up
So I threw some effort into the self-work
Improved my network
Reduced my net worth, according to some
But fortunatement, the importance afforded to fool’s endeavors is irrelevant
Whatever’s at the root and center is bent on pursuing the truthful splendor
The new and ever-renewing effervescent set of clever and elusive illusion-edges
Ooh ooh, look at that, I’m a true pretender
Life starts in a spot you need lube to enter
So who could question the use of the warp and woof to pour through some more soup for beggars?
Confused and selfish, like “who am I spending on?”
Who are you stepping on?
Whose tomb’s got enough room for the doom of the under-echelon?
A few tools you can’t use
Is it you, is it Epsilon?
Buca di Beppricon, Psalm fifty-one
You knew I had to hit ‘em with the bum bickiti-bum
Wiki-wiki-wah
Wikiti-wikiti-wah
Wikiti-god lives in all, big and small
Think of a limit, you’re thinking it wrong
So I dissolve in time, depart the mind, and go to where I get it from
The inner outer work is always never done
Et cetera, et cetera
I bring about the words of fallen heaven-dust
I sing about the worlds on my agenda
Yeah
Cause I am the thing that blessed me with this penmanship
And guess what? So is everything
I can turn an ouroborus to a wedding ring
I stand firm against the word of the Pretender King
Reciprocating the anti-fractal
Anticipating a frantic battle
My pen’s been waiting
My plants are saddled
My ship’s a strange one, with hands for paddles
I’m commiserating with limitation as I’m slipping into a different station
Hip hip, hooray!
It drips bits of rain
But I’m still getting in a great big parade
I’mma not always follow the rules
If you see what I’m doing, you prob’ly could too
Use the proper tools when you cobble them shoes
No, you can’t keep mine, but I made a little model for you
Now every time I drop in the booth, you can spot the improvement
I used to ga-ga to the goo
Now I dribble so godly and smooth
'Cause I got the same tutor who taught y’all to move in the womb
I’m a sesame bun!
You can bet I sneak up when the recipe calls for some salt in the wound
It’ll never need much
But the envious ones all better keep up when I waltz in the room
‘Cause if it’s gotta be competition, Quad’ll be hopping all up in it
With a bit of what I’ll fondly call the “jibbity jobba jibba”
That'll chippity-chop to ribbons any riddim that I spit it on
And get me across the finish on a mission
Then, if I win the contest I’ll split the profits amidst some prophets with sinless targets
Maybe someday I’ll have some bigger pockets
Or Biggoron’s wallet all filled with nonsense
As long as y’all get something real
From the field
A bumper yield
A wondrous feeling, we’ve done the deal
It’s there and back again to Bag-end, Underhill
I carry packages for bad friends
It’s fun to steal plunder sealed up with real tough bunker shields
I go and slough a little fluff for the fungisphere
Then I’m right back on my Tom Bombadil, I go:
Miles zippity bungabee
Miles zippity bungabee
Miles zippity bungabee
Miles zippity bungabee
And that’s the kind of blessing you can get from having sessions where you let your inner segments wiggle in the fifth dimension
Incidental to integrity is everything I mentioned
Lessons sprinkled in the mess for your digestion
Come and get it
Look at me, I got so many blessings
Look at me, I am so very blessed
I did I did I did I did I did the Iditarod trail
Used to be like “woe is me”
Refused to believe I could ever get unstuck from the clutch of the web I wove
But it’s easy to see that I’m better now
Didn’t know my will was free
Assumed I’d be getting what I get
Until I figured if I try to understand myself, I might just get to where I’ve ended up
