DeepSpace5 - Stick This In Your Ear
(from the album The Night We Called It a Day)
© copyright 2001

Hook:
"D" to the double "E" "P" space5
Times 2, ten ways to fly with free stage dives
Live and direct and everybody's right here
So tag this on your soul and stick it down into your ear
"D" to the double "E" "P" space5
Times 2, ten ways to fly when we stage dive
So, bring it over here, yeah that's the ticket
Just lend us your ear and we'll show you where to stick it.

Verse 1: Playdough
My book of notes for quotes where my brain think/
It rains ink every time my words dance/
You hearing chance from a deepspace brother/
The weak take cover under umbrellas of rockafellas, tales of ice/
And pipe dreams, we write things in panoramically scripts/
We flip dynamic lips and touch pens/
Inside my journal where the words are eternal/
So forever they last while yours pass with the last catch/
Phrase, I plays with Bic to stick men/
When we sparring with no physical touch but mic clutch/
So keep it on while we're pushing onward we spawn words/
Reflecting on diseased emcees we done conquered/
I've taken friends and foes with amateurs and pros; we're so sorry/
Your wack verse can't compete with passion/
That burns in me so fervently that's why we on eternity chase/
Throughout deepspace, I take first place in rate race/
While you was last place, we gas face/
And leave you bare-footed/
Then show the listener where they can roll it up and put it.

Hook:

Verse 2: manCHILD
Manchisidek, get respect, here to stretch your intellect/
The punchline is there's no punchline, but you don't get it yet/
Here to set it straight and maybe get it off my chest/
Could never read your mind, so label me illiterate/
Put my verses versus your verses deep below the surface/
Deepspace5. I hope you appreciate your purchase/
Because art without an audience pretty much defeats the purpose/
And rapping by myself only tends to make me nervous/
But let me in your ear, I'll wander around and then some/
Swim in the canal and maybe beat upon the drum/
I could swing from lobe to lobe to the rhythm of a strobe light/
Whisper sweet nothings through the distortion of an old mic/
Van Gogh type sound slice up in your space/
Because we love the way you listen plus the look on your face/
I made time stand still, history repeat itself/
I picked a fistfight with the future but she hits below the belt/
Felt the sting with every breath I took and never missed you/
Supersonic honesty honestly just to get through/
Jump through your headphones with every word I utter/
Hope and pray they don't go in one and out the other.

Hook:

Verse 3: Listener
It is just not fair comma how you can apostrophe "T" process this/
So dash called sagua faire comma in the air exclamation/
Trying to be compatible so hyphen to dash speak semicolon/
With my quotation quotables colon/
You love who you are period. I love who I am period/
But when it comes to liking parenthesis yourself/
You have a question mark, period, new paragraph/
I have a solution semicolon I have a fresh point/
Dash of hyphen view period/
I apostrophe "M" punctuating boundaries ampersand, ALL CAPS/
Can I speak to you quotations mentally underscore evidently/
Ellipses, end line... Tab/
It is so hard to re dash invent myself to a platform/
That you can italics understand period/
That you can digest comma ampersand/
Holding your hand comma why Question mark/
Am I the quote infection that keeps your head dash/
Aching period. Parenthesis/
If you would listen to the synnergies of my thoughts semicolon/
It would keep your quote foundation from shaking exclamation/
So, ALL CAPS bold this is for your ear comma for your head comma/
And for your thoughts/
Just cram it in far and you will see dot dot dot.

Hook:

Bridge:
Cotton balls, Q-tips, toothpicks, pencils/
Headphones, lint, deepspace instrumentals/
Flapjacks, eye drops, cigarettes, wine/
Whoopee cushions, push pins, deepspace rhymes/
Some could probably hurt you and some are just fine/
Deepspace5, we're in your ear every time/
Some could probably hurt you and some are just fine/
Deepspace5, we're in your ear every time.
