lyrics

i was born in a mud puddle in the ditch
son of an old junkyard scavenger
my subtle form is aligned with the double fish
i love to hang out in the trash and the lavender

i was raised on robbery and petty crime
countless nights under the smog reflecting city lights
shaped me into a man you'll never see with your two eyes
u wont catch me unless you learn how to read the signs

i was raised on petty crime and robbery
your fancy baubles are pretty but don't mean much to me
one man's treasure is another mans garbage
down in the scrap heap we keep what we foragin'

now i'm squeezing out the juice from some oranges
wake up in the morning. a/wake and bake with bacon
shaking off the nightmares of gravity's pull
i'm drinking hot black coffee from a dead man's skull
while i sweeten bitter liquid with my feverish dreams
you can hold the sugar, baby i don't want no cream
i started off as just some semen now i'm fully grown
into an animated skeleton collecting bones

(i'm just some minerals arranging themselves into a biological construct
but there's an intelligence behind the madness)

i grew up down a dirt road nowhere you would know
and nowhere you would want to go
if you dont like the way i roll then
don't go driving through the old backroads
you can be dismissed
my thoughts are roaming free through the dense uncensored wilderness

i'm feeling almost ready for a steady aim to claim my soul
dancing through the rancid smell of pain and all this vitriole
i feel just like a mole in the ground with a starry nose
gonna burrow down until i see how deep this mountain goes

i'm feelin hot and sweaty like a teddy bear so lose the skin
come play on my vertabrae like a vibraphone in a den of sin
i'll consecrate you haters with a lazer beam through hazy steam
you can thank me later when i'm phasing through your waking dream

i'm just a bone collector
collecting bones
i ain't what u expected
sticks and stones and dirty tricks are not my style
have fun while u running game
u be choking dust for miles
i be stoking white hot flames

i'm just a bone collector
collecting bones
i'm just a dirt bag
burning down the highway
i'm a mess of complex structures
and mental syndromes
i broke the mold at birth
u just a bunch of clones

i'm just a bone collector
collecting bones
