Badlees Like A Rembrandt
badlees/like_a_rembrandt >From the album "Diamonds in the Coal" written by: Alexander & Naydock Message: The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance (Aristotle) SONG LYRICS Get a load of that with the snakeskins on Looks like a refugee from a head bangin' song Sweet July evening, seems all the world we've ever known Is here at the breaker, shakin' them restless bones Brown baggin' as the music's draggin' on a cheap cassette machine Honey, I know no matter where we go We're gonna keep us a piece of this routine Chorus: Like a rembrandt.... A one of a kind in a shades-of-grey world Like a rembrandt, baby....... A genuine find in a come and go swirl World's in the moonlight, there's diamonds in the coal Layin' on my hood we're runnin' soul in soul Yellin' out my name, I think I know who that was This moment's got me higher than a black coffee buzz Come on girl, you can call your boss and fake a case of the flu You and me, we can cast some shadows In that nightlight your mama left on for you Repeat Chorus Drinkin' domestic on a night as majestic As a true hell raiser's bliss Every workin' day they take a little more away But they don't know of a social affair as redeeming as this Same tapes as last week, but that makes 'em cool Same grooves, same times, drives the social tool If this here is heaven then the saints are reelin' Some of them crawlin' on a tall grass ceilin' Honey, if life don't give us any more - it gave us a season To groove 'neath the stars at the number 9 breaker Not askin' for answers or reasons Repeat Chorus END Terry Mingle Cornell Univ.
