Danielson Famile - Bloodbook On The Halfshell Lyrics
Rowing, ringing, cares a-flingingAs we ride this boat of hideAll eagle-eyed and dignifiedDown the river, across the great divideWords resideAt the highest of tidesWith my bona fide brideShe's myTouring guideAnd, yes, we both do resideOn this riversideWhere we hideVacation's a lot of workBut here we are with ringing bellsAnd floating on this *****leshellMy pal grinsHugs the wind and sighsWe realizeWith our blank minds asideOnly to see the mysteryOf many books floating freeAnd those books are free indeedThere's one caught in the weedLet's get itGo get that lovely bookLet's grab those lovely booksGather up all these booksWe're getting looks, looksWe're getting the looksThese lovely, bloody booksArms full of lovely booksFreely collecting booksWe're getting funny looksWhile we areStacking, organizing, filingPiling way up high and risingDewey, dusty decimalizingSorting, tracking, systemizingCan't believe we found this vintageWe now have such great advantageGreat, they'll look in our libraryLet's get going and let us hurryNow, nowNow, nowHey, hey, heyWhat do they say?Collections sit and beg to playWanting to giveAnd speak with usBut neatly packedAnd nicely put awayWhat to do?For I've heard they are goodBut we've also been toldThey can't be understoodBy simpletons like meAnd should never beSo why try?Crack into all those booksThe lovely, bloody booksWe open up these booksWe're taking looks, looksWe're taking a lookTime to hit the booksThe lovely, bloody booksArms full of lovely booksOpen up all these booksIt's got theWords of one who made the riverBlood that's flowing through the soilI got books, I just don't read themCleaning scraps up from the tableFlipping through with fingers pointingAt the letters and the numbersStraining eyes and feeling betterWondering how to be membersHow now?How now?And I'm turning the pageWhile I'm center stageIt is starting to sinkAnd I'm to the brinkWith my plans in pencilWhile the vision's in inkWhat to think?My left brain tells me I'm a foolMy right brain tells me it's true, trueI only am knowing one thingI like hearing good newsIt's true, it's true, it's true and it's falseGonna cost myselfFor these booksTaking one second lookGonna call my counselor nowHe's gonna clearClear confusionThen explain everythingThese books steer our ship with good newsFor now I got nothing to loseMy brother remembersA thousand; I can't quote you one lineBut oh now I shallKnow all of your waysWith warm *****les into my heartAnd dancing to hitsAnd skipping aroundAround on unsinkable ships
