lyrics

You're looking at it the wrong way
You're too close, stand back
Turn it around, give it a day
Make sure you're on the right track

Flip it upside down, inside out
Or just stand on your head
Invert the colors choose a new route
Completion means it's dead



Shift your perception
Skew the perspective
Unfocus your vision
Filter through preferred -isms
Try a new paradigm
Lose yourself, follow the signs
Oblique strategies
Organic machines


Theories of creation
Pollockian Big Bang
Or invincible da vinci's
Intelligent design is sane

Vermeer's camera obscura
A pinhole into plato's cave
Miracles, occult and magic
just what we can't yet explain


The line between art and craft
The divide unseen blurs smart and crass
a precarious rift between saved and shit
Our precocious wit floats on waves of spit
Like a sailboat without a mast
Thoughts on a tedious life raft
our callus ballast broke through the hull
Of our unbalanced palace seafaring souls

So plug the leak, repair the breach
Pick the lock on writer's block
And If we capsize jump off the side
Swim to shore and settle the score
Rebuild the vessel out of scraps
Clean up the mess of crumpled paper
Ruffle the feathers of your cap
Shuffle in the hand dealt by your maker
