Amos

slick
sharp
smooth and smart
i have a passion for impassion
and a knife in my heart

there's the towhead with the moped and the mineral shake
there's the coffee girl just beggin me to make a mistake
there's the sidewalk slider doing what a deviant does
I take the moment and destroy it just to see what it was

cool
lean
tranquil and keen
i keep her picture in my hat
and i know how to be mean

I give everything for nothing
I take time to crack the code
I don't drive an auto
I just sort of float on the road

when the loose Nevada cannons all are
busted or dead
i'll still be swingin in the quietude
and bakin my bread

quick
stark
potent and dark
and when my mind is clear
my eye is never wide of the mark
see they don't want to be me
they're not privy to know me
i run minus a light
and death will not even slow me
