lyrics

Chameleon Luck
I’m gonna tell them where you're coming from
I have the ugly right you know
The lies you you hide Insure your twisted ways
But I see from the clippings of your latest piece
you’re slipping
hey...

Esoteric plagerIsm speaks
For the bulk of all the genius In your work
You really had me praising’ up a storm
I was such a naive “roto”
But the “drums” have turned to photos Now!

Chameleon luck when it’s good
Turns out worse than it should
And I am sure that my mIrror
WIll reveal your true colors...
To the M.A.M who thought you wuz theIr kIng
You would gloat at me
As they bent to kIss your rIng
These humps belIeved that everythIng you dId was truth!
I know you’ll have me trialed by your frIends
I know you’ll have cement put In my shoes
But the evidence Is there for all to see
For as long as people know you
they wIll skeptIcIze your output now...

Chameleon luck when it’s good
Turns out worse than it should
And I am sure that my mirror
Will reveal your true colors...
To a host of “Joes” who thought you wuz theIr only kIng
To the Y.A.F (you would operate theIr wIngs)
Those humps believed
That everything you touched wuz gold...
