“the cock”
—
[song lyrics]
—
V1
—
i measure time in cigarettes
and distance in dollars.
i sober rhyme in deference
to old friends with blue collars.
—
V2
—
i keep the beat within reach
and the snare is set to stun.
all i lack is the good sense
to say enough is enough.
—
CHORUS 1
—
just one more grab
at the cock
of rock glory.
one more mad dash
thru the throng
of mass whoredom.
—
V3
—
i measure lust in barrelsful
that seldom turn out fun.
when the moon gives way to the sun
it is me, i’m the one, singing
—
CHORUS 1
—
just one more grab
at the cock
of rock glory.
one more mad dash
thru the throng
of mass whoredom.
—
CHORUS 2
—
just one more grab
at the cock
of rock glory.
one more badass
knock’em dead
allegory.
