Dimed Out

I used to like walking with my eyes down

I'd sleep all day and fret away the night hours

But then I saw the sun and felt its light's power

And I found out the planet ain't no private house

Now I turn a brave bully to a shy coward

Make a loud lout silent as a quiet mouse

Then I make them hand over the white cloud

And then they're leaving me with a polite bow

And I've got plans I haven't time to write down

I'll incite a riot, fire flying all around

When I'm crying out, I'm howling with the wild hounds

Don't wanna buy an ounce

For me, the right amount is the entire pound

I only like it when it's dimed out

I only like it when it's dimed out

I only like it when it's dimed out

When it's dimed out, when it's dimed out, when it's dimed out

I don't chase after clocks or calendars

I bow down not to masters, gods, nor managers

Cause all the greatest artists, they were amateurs

Unembarrassed, dressed in only bandages

And I don't read rules or adhere to rituals

I'm an impatient underdog indivisible

And my challengers are talentless imbeciles

When my chalice is full, I am invincible

I don't listen to parents or priests or principals

Inconsiderate of little individuals

When they ration out their miniscule residuals

**** by the fistful

As long as there's a law, I'll be a criminal

I only like it when it's dimed out

I only like it when it's dimed out

I only like it when it's dimed out

When it's dimed out, when it's dimed out, when it's dimed out

When it's dimed out, when it's dimed out

When it's dimed out, when it's dimed out

I turned it up to four and couldn't feel it

I turned it up to five, it wasn't real yet

Turning it up to six wouldn't reveal it

Seven was a secret

Eight was reaching

Nine was decent, but

I really liked it when it dimed out

I only really like it when it's dimed out

I like, "like it" like it dimed out

I like it, like it, like it, like it dimed out

I only like it when it's dimed out

I only like it when it's dimed out

I only like it when it's dimed out

When it's dimed out, when it's dimed out, when it's dimed out

Whatever's inside, let it climb out

That was his plan and it's mine now
