lyrics

The billboard boys got so much nothing to flash

just some bandit rich man’s name

The Kings losers got two-cent words, itchin’ to burn, they fly so low
just puffing and muscle

And when the rages say it’s such a hated display

I’ve got to look ‘round and wonder

I’ve never found me a rose so red, a face so black, a heat so hard -
It made me a soldier

Falling in and out of love, in and out of love

From every corner they’re coming like trains, bangin’ their weight
Lord, how’s it only a dust-up?

And white knowers raid immigrant ships, licking their lips

and baking the remains

The Red Middle Mighty hate seeing such flesh sucking and shaking, mixing up browns
It gives those prigs a heart attack!

But that D.R. baby-mama, spilling out over the sides –

I wonder, “There but for what go I?”

Falling in and out of love, in and out of love

Call it world island, am I world island

love me worlds apart - make me your star then break my heart

You got no time to cry me oh my for all that shit that’s going on

Oh, ain’t you the hard one!

You got a notion that home is a myth, love is a trick - we are the same leather
I’ll take your venal straight money-cheap bait brotherly hate dare-of-fate

war on the avenue

Oh, but can you take me as I am?

Can you take me as I am, falling in and out of love?
