Testo 1st Transmission - Earthling

Testo della canzone 1st Transmission (Earthling), tratta dall'album Off the Radar

Earthling

Radar

First Transmission

I know who i am

I'm not who you think i am

I know who i am

I'm not who you think i am

I know who i am

I'm not who you think i am

I know who i am

I'm rock

I'm roll

Nat king cole

Schatzakovic drowning in a fish bowl

Earthling something you can never get a hold of

Baby took a load off

And then she strolled off

Whistling

Hummin'

Thumbin' a ride

"driver won't you take me to the other side?"

I'm a book

A poem

By leonard cohen

Son of the dice man

And i won't stop throwing

I'm boris karloff

The man they could not hang

I'm a ruffneck romantic

Talkin' that slang

I'm jesus christ superstar

Driving around in an old yellow car

I'm jumping on the balcony

Landing on a bigger man

I can fly

I fly to japan

Hail stones falling on my dreads

Reminding me of something hendrix said

Tunes from the room

Come back on many levels

Sounds from the earthling swing and dishevel

I'm pollyana in the way that i portray

Poo poo

La la

I kiss you on a good day

Hey little beetle

Sliding in my bath

When you flip on your back

You really make me laugh

I used to kill worms when i was a kid

Like mr. mclaren, someday i'll kill sid

Crazy how my girl wants a simple life

She's a simple schizophrenic but we get along fine

I'm a young parisian,

Maybe i'm mistaken

Maybe i'm cuban

Maybe i'm jamaican

I know who i am

I'm not who you think i am

I know who i am

I'm not who you think i am

I know who i am

I'm not who you think i am

I know who i am

I never say "never"

I always say "more"

I know the score

I know what to look for

I know who i am

I'm not who you think i am

I know who i am

Kickin' like a kung-fu shakespeare

Another girl another planet

On the corner, just wasted

Oh gosh

Oh gosh

Oh juliette binoche

I'm on my way to babylon, by bus

I'm a big bloke

When i smoke, i don't choke

"hi malachi" let's talk about hope

In the beginning

Head spinin' make me dizzy

I'm the mirror man

So don't ask who is it

London is my city

Jamaica's my country

Africa's my history

It ain't no mistery

How i came to be

Earthling-free

Sitting in ilford watching tv

Where's uhura

On an adventure

Did she touch your sexual centre?

Cursing

Never seen an earthling

Never seen a microphone

Microphone

Now i'm all alone

Lost in my head

On the road until tomorow

I'm double demented

Like william burroughs

P to the i to the m p

Pimp

Sako urinocho reading iceberg slim

I'm marcus garvey

I'm harvey keitel

I'm the ghost of a dog chasing edie brickell

It's crazy perplexing

I'm hexing like a haitian

I'm an arowak indian

Picking pockets like fagan

I know who i am

I'm not who you think i am

I know who i am

I'm not who you think i am

I know who i am

I'm not who you think i am

I know who i am

I never say "never"

I always say "more"

I know the score

I know what to look for

I know who i am

I'm not who you think i am

I know who i am

I know who i am

I'm not who you think i am

I know who i am

I'm not who you think i am

I know who i am

I'm not who you think i am

I know who i am

I know who i am

I'm not who you think i am

I know who i am

I'm not who you think i am

I know who i am

I'm not who you think i am

I know who i am

I'm michelangello working on a totem pole

I'm gallileo studying shinto

I'm the rest of the earth giving birth to a baby

Grasshopper, tell me about slavery

I'm in a sauna, watching television

Yeah, tripitaka gave me permission

I'm that man in 1686

Saying black people come from venus

Yeah

I saw her reading poetry

Practising verses

What's the meaning of 33 degrees in the morning?

It ain't easy man

It ain't easy
