Mystic Child

It was only the time of the newly born dead

With wispy cobwebs in your head

The polar moon looked out instead

Goin' wild

Liquor shifting through the brain

The manic depressive goes insane

Goin' wild

Goin' wild

Desperate anger hits the streets

By the foul smelling river by the meat market

Goin' wild

Mystic child

Goin' wild

Mystic child

In the winter with frozen toes

Looking out the big windows

To fly

Goin' wild

Situation x out of control

My eyes half opened like a mole

Who smiles

Goin' wild

Who smiles

Goin' wild

In the mystic morning where the river meets

The hurdy-gurdy of the hip-hop beat

5 a.m. the viscous street

Oh, wild

Goin' wild

Out the window like a flash

Fallin' through a rooftop crash

Blind

Goin' wild

Sick and misty like a pup by the curb

He's throwin' up

Wild

Like a child

Goin' wild

Like a child

If he can't have all that relates

To testify that he is great

He'll cut someone with a broken plate

Stand upon the subway grate

And smile

Goin' wild

Goin' wild

With a smile

Holy morning

Sun is up and someone

Here has lost his cups

The dawn is tattered all cut up

Goin' wild

Like a mystic child

Like a mystic child

Sunday morning looking down from the rooftop

Goin' wild with a smile

Mystic child

Top of the world he's got it made

Rings are gold, braids are jade

Jumped to the street, he's got it made

Goodbye, child

Goodbye, child

Mystic child

Goin' wild

Like a mystic child

Goodbye

Goodbye

Goin' wild, ah

Goin' wild

Like a mystic child

Holy morning

Sun is up and someone

Going wild

Like a mystic, like a mystic, like a mystic -

- child

Goin'-goin', goin'-goin' wild

Like a mystic child

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh, oh

Jumped to the street
