y’see it started way back in nyc
when i stole my first rhyme from the m.i.c.
at a west end avenue at 63
the beginning of a leap year, february, ’96
with a guitar picked up in the mix
i committed to the licks like a nickel back of tricks
well look at me now
look at me now
look at me now, now, now, now

i’m just a curbside prophet
with my hand in my pocket
and i’m waiting for my rocket to come
i’m just a curbside prophet
with my hand in my pocket
and i’m waiting for my rocket

well you’re never gonna guess
where i’ve been been been
and i have no regrets
that i bet my whole checking account
because it all amounts to nothing up in the end

well you can only count on the road again
we’ll soon be on the radio dial
and i been payin close attention to the willie nelson style
like a band of gypsies on the highway while
i’m one man pushin’ on the california skyline drive
up the coast mc brag the most
i ’m pickin up my pace and makin time like space ghost
raising a toast to the highway patrol with the most
put my cruise control on coast
with Elsa the dog who exceeds my limitation
i say, “i like your style, crazy pound pup!
you need a ride? [*woof*]
well come on, girl, hop in the truck!”

and i’m waiting for my rocket to come on

see i’m a down home brother, redneck undercover
with my guitar here
i’m ready to play
and i’m s a sucker for a filly
got a natural ability to give the freestyle
look at my flexibility
dangerous at the mike
my ghetto hat’s cocked right
the ladies say, “yo, that kid is crazy”
the backstage betties taking more than they can get
they say, “what’s up with m-r-a-z?”

hey, hey, something’s different in my world today
well they changed my traffic sign to a brighter yellow
hey, hey, something’s different in my world today
they changed my traffic sign to a brighter yellow
i’m just a curbside prophet
curbside prophet now
curbside prophet now
curbside
come on, now
curbside prohet
waiting for my rocket to come…

It’s a word, so don’t try to buy it out with a ring,
Cuz it’s a verb, to love someone, open up and let them in,
Just don’t, just don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid to set them again,
This ain’t no heaven, ain’t no hell, ain’t no in-between,
Cuz there’s just too many faces and places in this world,
That I ain’t never seen, I’m gonna keep on keeping on on,
I’m gonna reap on being strong, and I got my head on,
Though misconnected, its alright cuz I do it protected,
I got a day job, I drive a cheap ride, Sounds like I’m gonna be fine,

You only get one life to learn, There’s only so many brain cells you can burn,An’ life can take a turn, and take away everything that you’ve earned,[www.kantatero.com]

And leave you yearnin’ for more more more,
Life is gonna leave you yearnin’ for more more more,
Your stomach gonna be churnin’ wantin’ more,
You wantin’ wantin’ some more, you wantin’ some more,
Do you want some?
Do you want some?
Then I got some,
Um (a bunch of times),
Well I got one right here,
And I’m okay, I’m okay,
And you’re okay, ha ha, we’re okay, ha ha ooha I am alright.
I answered alright, I’m doin’ fine.

But you don’t fold, you don’t fade
You’ve got everything you need, especially me
Sister you’ve got it all
You make the call to make my day
In your message say my name

Your talk is all the talk, sister you’ve got it all
Curl your upper lip up and let me look around
Ride your tongue along your bottom lip and bite down
And bend your back and ask those hips if I can touch
Because they’re the perfect jumping off point of getting closer to your

Butterfly
Well you float on by
Oh kiss me with your eyelashes tonight
Or Eskimo your nose real close to mine
And let’s mood the lights and finally make it right
But you don’t fold, you don’t fade, you’ve got everything you need
Especially me
Sister you’ve got it all
[www.kantatero.com]

You make the call to make my day
In you message say my name
Your talk is all the talk sister you’ve got it all
You’ve got it all, you’ve got it all, you’ve got it all [2x]

You’ve got it all, you’ve got it all

Doll I need to see you pull your knee socks up
Let me feel you up side, down, slide in, slide out, slide over here
Climb in my mouth now child

Butterfly, well you landed on my mind
Damn right you landed on my ear and then you crawled inside
And now I see you perfectly behind closed eyes
I wanna fly with you and I don’t wanna lie to you
Cause I, cause I can’t recall a better day
Sun comin’ to shine on the occasion
[www.kantatero.com]

You’re an open minded lady
You’ve got it all
And I never forget a face
If I’m making my own
I have my days
Let’s face the fact here, it’s you who’s got it all

You know that fortune favors the brave
Well let me get paid while I make you breakfast
The rest is up to you, you make the call

You make the call to make my day
In your message say my name
Your talk is all the talk, sister you’ve got it all

Cause I can’t recall a better day
Sun comin’ to shine on the occasion
You’re a sophisticated lady, oh you’ve got it all

You’ve got it all, you’ve got it all, you’ve got it all [3x]
You’ve got it all, you’ve got it all

Butterfly, baby, well you’ve got it all

What will happen to a face in the crowd when it finally gets too crowded.
And will happen to the origins of sound after all the sounds have sounded
Well I hope I never have to see that day but by God I know it’s headed our way
So I better be happy now that the boy’s gone home. The boy’s gone home.
[www.kantatero.com]

And what becomes of a day for those who rage against it
And who will sum up the phrase for all left standing around in it

Well I suppose we’ll all make our judgement calls
We’ll walk it alone, stand up tall, then march to the fall
So we better be happy now that we’ll all go home.x2

Be so happy with the way you are
Just be happy that you made it this far
Go on be happy now. Please be happy now

Because you say that this is something else

this is something else all right x4

[www.kantatero.com]

I tried to live my life i lived it so well
But when it’s all over is it heaven or is it hell
I better be happy now that no one can tell, say nobody knows
I’m gonna be happy with the way that I am
I’m gonna be happy with all that I stand…for
I’m gonna be happy now because the boy’s going home.

The boy’s gone home. yeah the boy’s gone home. x4

A cosmic fish they love to kiss
They’re giving birth to constellation
No riffs and oh no reservation
If they should fall you get a wish or dedication
May I suggest you get the best
For nothing less than you and I
Let’s take a chance as this romance is rising over before we lose the lighting
Oh bella bella please
Bella you beautiful luna
Oh bella do what you do
Do do do do do
[wwwkantatero.com]

You are an illuminating anchor
Of leagues to infinite number
Crashing waves and breaking thunder
Tiding the ebb and flows of hunger
You’re dancing naked there for me
You expose all memory
You make the most of boundary
You’re the ghost of royalty imposing love
You are the queen and king combining everything
Intertwining like a ring around the finger of a girl
I’m just a singer, you’re the world
All I can bring ya
Is the language of a lover
Bella luna, my beautiful
How you swoon me like no other
[www.kantatero.com]

May I suggest you get the best
Of your wish may I insist
That no contest for little you or smaller I
A larger chance happened, all them they lie
On the rise, on the brink of our lives
Bella please
Bella you beautiful luna
Oh bella do what you do
Bella luna, my beautiful
How you swoon me like no other, oh oh oh

Who am I to say this situation isn’t great? It’s my job to make the most of it
Of course I didn’t know that it would happen to me. Not that easy.

Hey what’s that you say? You’re not blaming me for anything that’s great
But I don’t break that easy. Does it fade away?
So that’s why I’m apologizing now for telling you I thought that we could make it
I just don’t get enough to believe that we’ve both changed.

Who am I to say this situation isn’t great? It’s my time to make the most of it
How could I ever know that this would happen to me, not that easy, no
All along the fault is up for grabs why don’t you have it
Well it’s for sale go make your offer, I’ll sell it for no less than what I bought it for
Pay no more than absolutely zero.
[www.kantatero.com]

Well neither one of us deserves the blame because opportunities moved us away
And it’s not an easy thing to learn to play a game that’s made for two that’s you and me
The rules remain a mystery. See it can be easy.

Who am I to say this situation isn’t great? It’s our time to make the most of it
How could we ever know that this would happen to me, not that easy, no
All along the fault is up for grabs and there you have it
Well it’s for sale go make your offer, I’ll sell it for no less than what I bought it for
Pay no more than absolutely zero.

There’s no one else I would rather go out with, that’s hell when I see them standing there

[www..kantatero.com]

Me and my mouth we don’t mean to be rushin’
We talk about deep freely cuz we crushin’
I’m gonna shake both sides of the butt yeah
Theoretically yes ain’t we lucky

And when the coyotes they sing in the park
It’s when the city life starts falling for the sea
Winding roads are winding down and the flying men’ll hit the ground
Every motion is closer to touching the coyotes sing when they call on your lovin’

(hello)

We’re coming back for more
You know why we’re coming for you
You know we should be… we should be together
Coz once we rock, we won’t wanna stop
Not today or tomorrow
Not today or tomorrow (oh no)
You better lock your doors
You know why, coz we want you
Coz we like you a lot
[www.kantatero.com]

I wish the world was alive like you
I wish the wind would blow me through
Another opportunity to approach you
Another telepathic rendezvous
I wish you well with your walking and jogging
You got a double side in Mexico
I gotta try to keep your attention
Gotta write using less emoticons
Gotta figure out the snooze alarm
I wanna lay in your place till dawn
I wanna to play in the park come on now
Let me see your other upper echelon

And when the coyotes escape to New York
Then the city life has crumbled to the sea
And the girls fall to lost and found
The flying men’ll hit the ground
Every motion is closer to touching the coyotes sing
When they feast on your lovin’
I’m a coyote and I got a taste for your lovin’

We’re coming back for more
You know why we’re coming for you
You know we should be… we should be together
Coz once we rock, we won’t wanna stop
Not today or tomorrow
Not today or tomorrow (oh no)

Coz once we rock, we won’t wanna stop
Not today or tomorrow

We’re coming back for more
You know why we’re coming for you
You know we should be… we should be together
Coz once we rock, we won’t wanna stop
Not today or tomorrow

Well I’ve seen a thousand things in one place
But I stopped my counting when I saw your face
Erasing memory I feel as though I’ve never seen a face before
Until I saw your eyes smiling back at me thru my tears
I’ve been counting all these years
Now suddenly the thousand things I’ve seen were
Nothing more than dreams of you and me
[www.kantatero.com]

You and me quietly at a stand still
Fortunately you will kiss me and I’ll kiss you back
Fact of the matter of is that I don’t know what the latter is
That I always wanted to kiss you but
I always wanted to run from you
Because I always wanted to miss you
And that I’ve always wanted to come for you
[www'kantatero.com]

So… how do you do?

Smoking, often, and calling out our guilty pleasures,
Let’s keep, talking, anything to stop clockwatching.
Lately we’re running out of time, aren’t we?
Crazy for running all the time, m-m-m-m-maybe.
Let’s forget we’re running out of time.
[www.kantatero.com]
I’m off like an airplane,
I’m licking your postage stamp again.
I’m using my right brain and I’m praying that we don’t crash.
Who knew I’d cum so fast.
Well so what if a two pump chump can’t last.

But I made it to three, and I foreclose a five minute, fantasy.
On a short-lived flight, making love on economy
No jumping, conclusions,
I don’t think there’s no solution,
Let’s get, backwards,
And forget our restless destination.

Let’s live in this moment just this time, could we?
Just take one moment of our time m-m-m-m-maybe.
Let’s forget we running out of time.

I’m off like an airplane,
I’m catching my second wind again.
I’m using my left brain
And I’m righting all my wrongs.
I’m yearning to turn you on.
[www.kantatero.com]
I’ve been working on getting you off, so get on board.
Well how can I guess by the subject of the best predicate that’s left unsaid when the matter is too delicate.
My loneliness is evident.

And its you,
You’re running through my mind and it makes me c-c-crazy cra-cra-crazy.

La la la
La la la la la
La la la (ooooooo, so amazing)
La la la la la la
La la la
Laaaa oh oh
Laaaaaa lo oh oh oh

Lady, dreamer, you might be the soundest sleeper,
Tonight, sleep tight, and build your nest upon my shoulder.
