Oatmeal Lyrics by Elbows

Corduroy EP

0

[Skit: Samples]

"This is a cassette player with a little cassette in here, and there's nothing written on it, so we'll just have to play it to see what it is."

*cassette player closes*

"I know what it is..."

"This classic."

"He was given to fits of rage, Jewish liberal paranoia. He had complaints about life, but never any solutions. He longed to be an artist, but balked at the necessary sacrifices. In his most private moments he spoke of his fear of death."

"But in hip hop it's like this: boom bap, boom bap, boom bap, boom bap, boom bap, boom bap, boom bap, boom bap, boom bap– everytime."

"His is a story filled with greed, passion, love, hate, and good and evil."

"Who wants to have some fun!?"

"Up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane!"

"Does that scare you?"

"Yeah that's what's up."

"Hello, and welcome. The time is right now, the city is New York, and tonight I put my elbows on the table."

"You're going on a visit. No, I'm wrong. You're uh... you're running away."
