Cartoon Eyes 02:43
You say you wanna go with me to London You’ve got a stone that’s gonna pay? You say you found it by the river Cause you’re a gem hunter Today? Both as cartoon eyes To wrap it in sight No they’re not unlike Cartoon eyes You say you wanna know how I found it Nearly drowning in the clay? You see that’s where it’d stay Forever weren’t I a collector Today? Oh why You’re an awesome sight Theirs is a gaze to bask in You’re to gawk at You’re to gawk at Both as cartoon eyes To wrap it in sight No they’re not unlike Cartoon eyes

Moonstone 03:23
Found a moonstone on a walk Missed it almost but I did not How quickly my claw Fought it from the Soil and I thought “Oh what a what a rock” It’s a fright; When so much of your Daydreaming happens at night, To find the rot got in one drop at a time, To need another fiat of God to unwind On screen she’s just so beautiful Though I’ve an eye caught, I am I am not It’s a fright; When so much of your Daydreaming happens at night, To find the rot got in one drop at a time, To need another fiat of God to unwind

Gemstone 02:53
Praised the dish Made it all made it all by hand Frankly It Needed salt needed salt it was bland A gem omega You’re a flu of my age Yet I am after you everyday Burned the whole kitchen down Scrambling egg What a wonderful recipe; Significant cleanup - tasted great While perfect in thought Was I sad eyed as I saw? A gem omega You’re a flu of my age Yet I am after you everyday Burned the whole kitchen down Scrambling egg But recipe critics call “Too eager to offend” Tasted great Somehow if I can just See that I don’t abandon goodness Right now I know I must Seem like a dope smiling crooked

about

Popular culture’s obsession with façade is enough to drive one crazy while dragging one in. Do Ra carefully layout three distinct perversions of beauty through quirky lyrics and utter complexity veiled in minimalism.
