Juno was mad, he knew he’d been had,
so he shot at the sun with a gun.
Shot at the sun with a gun.
Oh, he shot at his wily one only friend.

[ha- hahaha, ha-ha-ha-ha HA.]

[Well listen to this.
He shot and he missed.
And so Juno got what he deserved.
Imprisonment was all that he earned.
So let’s stop on in and see if he learned a goddamn thing.]


In the gallows, or the ghetto.
In the town, or the meadow.
In the billows, even over the sun.
Every end of a time is another begun.

You understand, mechanical hands
are the ruler of everything.
Aaa.
Ruler of everything.
Aaa.
I’m the ruler of everything in the end.


Do you like how I dance? I got zirconium pants.
Consequential enough to slip you into a trance.
Do you like how I walk? Do you like how I talk?
Do you like how my face disintegrates into chalk?
I have a wonderful wife, I got a powerful job.
She criticizes me for being egocentric.
Ha ha ha, ha.

You practice your mannerisms into the wall.
If this mirror were clear, I’d be standing so tall.
I saw you stumble over clovers on the side of the hill.
I was observing the birds, circle in for the kill.

I pin you, I know you, your facade is a scam.
You know you’re making me cry, this is the way that I am.
I’ve been living a lie, a metamorphical scheme.
Detective undercover, brotherhood, objective, obscene.

Oh, no, no, oh yeah.


(Do you hear the flibbity jibbity jibber jabber?
With an “Oh my God, I’ve gotta get out of here while I have another
word to sell, another story to tell.
Another time piece ringing the bell.”
Do you hear the clock stop when you reach the end?
No, you know it must be never ending, comprehend if you can
but when you try to pretend to understand
you resemble a fool, although you’re only a man
so give it up and smile.)

()


Now you understand, mechanical hands
[Now I understand, mechanical hands]
are the ruler of everything.
Ruler of everything.
I’m the ruler of everything in the end.
[You’re the ruler of everything in the end.]

Without looking down, gliding around.
Like a bumbling dragon, I fly.
[Like a bumbling dragon, you fly.]
Scraping my face on the sky.
[Scraping your face on the sky.]

Oh, no, no, oh yeah.
