“There are two kinds of people in the world: Drains and Radiators.” – Andy Serkis, Nerdist 545
lyrics:
getting dirty and down to work
hands underneath the hood
frontal lobe ‘neath my fingernails
diy I don’t knock on wood
I might be out of luck
but I ain't afraid of rut
every valley’s got peaks
I might never get out this crevice
but it won’t be 'cause I didn’t reach
you can give off heat
or take it away
you can be the radiator
or the drain
haters don’t say nothing but nay
it’s the only phrase they know
I’m trying to keep my head moving
on a different kind of flow
this aint no cruise ship, if you aint moving
get out and push
bound to get your feet wet some
get on little doggie mush
stop motion couldn’t capture this slow growth
I’m plugging along
hard to take in the scope of momentum
when the arch is so long
early bird catches the worm
early worm wiggles off of the hook
I’m writhing like a snake in the ocean
dancing ‘round every rule in the book
