Lyrics:

Electric poles sprout from the Earth
While no one was watching
The crooked smile you always wore
Like you were born sideways

Flip on the light
Grab my braids
Prop me up right
I try to speak but I only leak water

Tentacles crawl through your curls
I spin around 'til I'm nauseous
My child teeth fall through my lips
The new ones grow in sharp

Flip on the light
Grab my braids
Prop me up right
I try to speak but I only leak water

Matching bows
Strangle hold 
In the morning light
The taut strings of my family tree
Too tight to tie
Too harsh to hold
Too tight to tie

I try to speak but I only leak water

Leak Water

Lyrics:

I made myself strong
By getting my skin numb
And loosening up the thumbs
By pumping out the black tar water

I made myself real
By ripping up magazines
And staving off disease
By pumping out the black tar water

I made my friends leave
With tightrope at their knees
And laughing when they sneeze
I’m throwing up the black tar water

I start to tell it wrong
While singing in a song
Where robbers held up guns
They’re shooting out the black tar water

Dripping off follicles
Seeping out my pores
Filling up my lungs
Oh my my

Dripping off follicles
Seeping out my pores
Filling up my lungs
Oh oh my my
My black tar water
My black tar water

Black Tar Water

Lyrics by Christoph Bull:

Once upon a time we still had a king
The best show ever in and out of the ring
Rope-a-dope and Ali shuffle put the magic in the scuffle
Louisville Lip
Ever so hip
A man who stood up for what he believed

        Ali, Ali, Ali
	Ali, Ali, Ali
	Floating like a butterfly, stinging like a bee
	This is the story of Muhammad Ali

A universe of One from the House of Shock
He danced around the globe fighting for God
In Zaire and in Manila
All the world could feel the thrilla
Full of grace
Beyond all race
He said what nobody else would say

        (repeat chorus)

Bridge:
When he faced his longest fight
The battle with the speed of life
Again, he found the truth inside
Living on the power of will
Slowing down and floating still
Following the light divine
The greatest of all time

        (repeat chorus)
