Red Hot Chili PeppersDeep Kickfree spirits but already tormented by our own hands, given to us by our parents. We got together and wrote on desks and slept in laundry rooms near snowy mountains and slipped through whatever cracks we could find, minds altered. We didn't falter in portraying hysterical and tragic charactersn asmog-filled universe. We loved the dirty city and the journeys away from it. We had not yet been or seen our friends' selves chase tails round and round in downward spiral, leaving a trail of irretrievable vital life juice behind. Still the brother-blood-comrades-partner-family-cuzz was inpenetrable and we lived inside it, laughing with no clothes, And everything experimental till death was upon us. In our face, mortality, and lots of things seemed futile then. But love and music can save us and did while the giant gray monster grew more poisoned and volatile around us, jaws clamping down and spewing ugly sh*t around, Nothing is the same so we keep moving, we keep moving. Went off and got some haircuts, Lookin wild and got all drugged up, Hopped a train into the night, Got a ride with a transvestite Two boys in San Francisco, Two boys in San Francisco, Blasted off in BART bathroom, Those coppers woke us up, Mother fuckers woke us up. Two young brothers in a hovercraft, Telepathics, love and bellylaughs. Storm the stage of Universal, Slim shine talk box go subversal, Papa's proud and so he sent us, Pounding hearts full and relentless Two boys in London, England Two boys in London, England Climbing out of hostel windows, Wearing gear so out but in though, Come on kid and do the no no. Two young brothers on a hovercraft, Telepathics, love and bellylaughs. We went to Fairfax High School, Jumped off buildings into their pools, We'd sit down, grease the canters, Run like hell 'cause they can't catch us. Two boys in L.A. proper, Two boys in L.A. proper. Stealing anything that we could, Gotta sneak into the Starwood, Gotta peak into the deep good. I remember 10 years ago in Hollywood we did some good and we did some real bad stuff but the Butthole Surfers always said it's better to regret something you did than something you didn't do We were young and we were looking...looking, looking for the deep kick. Yeah, seen em come, seen em go... Index |
