Papi Hears the Ocean

Papi Hears the Ocean - Etai Benson

Written by：David Yazbek

I don't know with the girls I don't know what to do

I don't know where to start

I'm smarter up here than I am down here

And up here I'm not too smart

They might say one thing or another

They might have smiled at me once or twice

If they have breasts and they're not my mother

Then all I hear is

And the hands get heavy oh the hands

I don't know what to do with the hands or the feet

Frozen in fear like a deer with the lights

In their eyes in the middle of the street

She might be wanting to get touchyfeely

She might be talking to me really nice

She might as well be speaking Swahili

'Cause all I hear is

And my tongue gets big

And I can't move my knees

And my eyeballs freeze

And all I see's a tunnel

And there's cotton in my head

My legs are full of lead

And my brain goes deader than the Dead Sea

Dead dead

Dead in the mind and I find that I kind of

Go into an infantile trance

I'm peeing in my not literally peeing in my

But you know I may as well be peeing in my

Then I lose my wits

And my lights go off

I get all sticky in the pits

And I smell like falafel

And my ears get hot

And I feel real awful

And all I hear is

Dead dead dead

Belly up going round

Sinking down down down

Like a schmuck

Dead in the head

Dead in the water

Dead in a magical sea

Full of suck

Go ahead and tell me I should keep on trying

Go ahead and tell me I should break the ice

I'll be standing here deaf and dying

And all I'll hear is
