| The Faint Fasciinatiion Fulcrum And Lever I heard a bone snap When I was only about 9 The laws of gravitation Were in advance a while But not long before they taught me a lesson In tough skin jeans like a Japanese Hessian I was 70 pounds Learning to fly I knew I couldn't do if I didn't try We called it "the field" Where we used to hang out A field of alfalfa in the back of a house With a slice of an old oak tree And a twelve-foot plank Put the board on top We got a flying machine! Oh my god! We can teeter on this! Or make a lever that can shoot me Into orbit and space! I've seen the circus I know how they do it With bent knees You got to jump Like you would from a trampoline Strange phenomenon Strange phenomenon We got up a ladder And the heaviest kid (5) He would climb up top (4) And count down like a (3) rocket ship To (2) fly me up He'd get to (1) T-minus zero (0) Before he jumped And I was shot high in a vertical catapult Straight up and down I remember the view From over top of the house Gravity seems weak Until you look down I got in position I hadn't echoed the form If the judges were present They'd be holding up score cards Of 9's and 10's I must've lost a couple points For the landing I did I heard a loud snap But it didn't hurt I looked the neighborhood It looked like earth But everybody's acting weird Are they on meds? Eating peanut butter sandwich In a hospital bed I started noticing Strange phenomenon (I started noticing) Strange phenomenon Is this planet the same one that I've been on Everybody's bizarre and irrational Even nurses on the quiet seem a bit off Strange phenomenon Everybody's deranged and I wonder what Happened the day that I fell from the sky If nobody changed then it must've been mine |
