Deceived
From Lick My Heart by Uzi Ramirez
I've been deceived by the colors on my telly
By the radioactive fumes of my microwave jelly
Deceived by the first dime I earned
Deceived by the first girl I yearned
Deceived by hail n snow n rain
Deceived by the left side of my brain
Deceived by nymphs' seductive melodies
Deceived by magic remedies
Deceived by headlines
Deceived by red lines
Deceived by the stars
Deceived by crystal balls
Deceived by brick walls
Deceived by pale tradition
Deceived by swamp religion
Deceived by urine scented allies
Deceived by pantomime rallies
Deceived by facial hair
Deceived by gummy bears
Deceived by ladders
Deceived by kites
Deceived by days
Deceived by nights
Deceived by cupid's lonesome arrows
Deceived by the flight paths of the sparrows
Deceived by feathered pillows
Deceived by spit shined mirrors
Deceived by windmills
Deceived by fire drills
Deceived by earthquakes
Deceived by cornflakes
Deceived by wet cement highways
Deceived by bubblegum hairsprays
Deceived by garage sales
Deceived by wagging tails
Deceived by marching bands
Deceived by sweating hands
Deceived by graveyards
Deceived by leotards
Deceived by eye of newt
Deceived tannis root
Deceived by forbidden fruit
Deceived by the pied piper's flute
Deceived by my two lungs
Deceived by my two tongues
Deceived by hard ons
And so on and so on
Don't even remember what it was I was lookin for
That hidden door
In an old wooden chest
Long lost since I quit sucking on my mama's breast
N digging earth for worms
N collectin snakeskins n feathers
N had different kinds of moods for different kinds of weathers
N my mama she said to me
Baby darling don't you cry
Baby don't you cry
