Unfamiliar Ceiling
by Karl Olson

ch.
Once more reeling from / another unfamiliar ceiling
In the green - on the mezzanine
Reporting for numerous magazines

Once more sleeping on / the carpet and I'm barely weeping
In the dark - and then I hark
Living a life that is grey and stark

v1.
I don't know what words I can say
But I have to keep replaying-them
Messages I must relay
Yeah I know that I'm delaying-them
Cause I gotta ASK / and verify FACTS
And make sure it's really ok say THAT
This channel bought X / Another bought Y
But it's hard to do 'cause I am very shy

I'm not always I'm friends with guys
Cause I'm just an individual
But if I can get a reply
The effects will be residual
Super CONNECTED / hyper RESPECTED
Reputation will be ultra PERFECTED
Like a PREFECT KID / who mashes REKKIDS
Every one loving the site I ERECTED

(ch.)

v2.
I thought it'd be glamour and glory
But I instead I need a lorry
It's time to relate a small story
Like that guy who hawked Suntory
Hotels at MIDNIGHT / Things that don't SIT RIGHT
Feeling that everything's getting BIT TRITE
Getting nice INVITES / and pointless INSIGHTS
Notice that everything's fading INTO WHITE

Redefine all my objectives
So this isn't so offensive
Everything's just misdirectives
So that why I'm apprehensive
The inside AGENDAS / Secret DEFENDAS
Hiding in these himitsu HACIENDAS
This vail I RENDER / mixed in a BLENDER
Too bad if you hate it no return to SENDER

(ch.)

v3.
Everyone lies to me boldly
Yes, they put on acts so coldly
Fronting like that they want to see me
While they cut up neko-mimi
The love that I FELT's / Beginning TO MELT
Destroying the business like silver TO SMELT
It's all POLITICS / And slight of hand TRICKS
Determined by corporate management CLIQUES

Who are not in touch with the populous
In every last last metropolis
Who don't like the fact they're croppin this
The facts should be so obvious
Instead they're NOT HEP / They're super INEPT
Bragging 'bout income they shouldn't HAVE KEPT
They ought to do MORE / Cause I'm keepin' SCORE
If they don't step up, then they'll all end up POOR

(ch.)x2
