Haiku Hands - Mechanical Animal

Ladies and gentleman

Charlie Mingus, Charlie Mingus
Charlie Mingus, Charlie Mingus

Programmable animal, mechanical cannibal
Programmable animal, mechanical cannibal
Programmable animal, mechanical cannibal
Pro-, pro-, pro-

Lick skin, hold hand, I'm an animal
Get clean sinner man, I'm a cannibal
Rim shot, new ape, penny drop, landscape
In debt, inflate, infallible
Payphone fiend, breathe heavily
Payphone, hi, Beverley
Command Z, the breed that don't dream
Ultralight beam machines that need melody
I got the tag, kept the receipt
Day in day out, rinse and repeat
Summon the sound, keep 'em all keen
Lay it all out, I am ready to feed
Animal instinct still in me
While on the beat like lock to key
Givin' off heat at a hundred degrees
I'm an uncommon element, pleasure machine

We bang them drums (bang the drum)
We bang them drums (bang the drum)
We bang them drums (bang the drum)
When we get on the beat it's like
(We bang them drums) I wanna bang my drum
(We bang them drums) until the morning comes
(We bang them drums) until the morning comes
(We bang them drums) I wanna bang my drum
(We bang them drums) I wanna bang my drum
(We bang them drums) until the morning comes
(We bang them drums) until the morning comes
(We bang them drums) wanna ride shotgun

Hey, hey, destruction reigns
Old man complains
We're all deranged
And left untamed
No one's to gain, no one's to blame
No one explains, it's all a game, woo
Spatially, I'm aware
Evolution's unfair
Say hell, yeah (hell, yeah)
Say hell, yeah (hell, yeah)
Say hell, yeah (hell, yeah)
Say fuck, yeah (fuck)

We bang them drums (bang the drum)
We bang them drums (bang the drum)
We bang them drums (bang the drum)
When we get on the beat it's like (we bang them drums)
We bang them drums
We bang them drums
We bang them drums
We bang them drums
We bang them drums
We bang them drums
We bang them drums
Wanna ride shotgun
