Beck — Master Song

(If we could all gather around Make love to me, girl He took you up in his aeroplane Master song I'm the master Can I rap? Go ahead) I believe that you heard your master sing when I was sick in bed I suppose he told you everything that I keep locked in my head Your master took you travelling, well at least that's what he said And now do you come back to bring your prisoner wine and bread? You met him at some temple where they take your clothes at the door He was just a numberless man in a chair who'd just come back from the war And you wrap up his tired face in your hair and his hand on the apple core Then he touches your lips now so suddenly bare of all the kisses from some time before And he gave you a German Shepherd to walk with a collar of leather and nails And he never once made you explain or talk about all of the little details Such as who had a word and who had a rock and who had you through the mails Now your love is a secret all over the block and it never stops, even when your master fails And he took you up in his aeroplane which he flew without any hands And you cruised above the ribbons of rain that drove the crowd from the stands Then he killed the lights in a lonely lane and an ape with angel glands Erased the final wisps of pain with the music of rubber bands It's the master, master, master song Motherfuckin' master song, yea I was playing my guitar And now I hear your master sing, you kneel for him to come His body is a golden string that your body is hanging from His body is a golden string, my body has grown numb And now you hear your master sing, your shirt is all undone Dang! One more time And will you kneel beside this bed that we polished so long ago Before your master chose instead to make make that bed of snow? Your eyes are wild and your knuckles are red and you're speaking far too low Now I can't make out what your master said before he had to go It's the master song Master, master, master, it's the master song Master, master, master, it's the master song It's the motherfuckin' master song Motherfuckin' master song Go go go go SONG! Then I think you're playing far too rough for a lady who's been to the moon I've laid by this window long enough, now I live in an empty room And your love is some dust in an old man's cough who is tapping his foot to a tune (to a tune!) And your thighs are a ruin, you want too much, let's say 'come back soon' Come back later! Wake me up before you go go Master master motherfuckin' master song Master master it's the motherfuckin' master song Master I loved your master perfectly, I taught him all that he knew He was starving in some deep mystery like a man who is sure what is true And I sent you to him with my guarantee I could teach him something new And I taught him how you would long for me, no matter what He said no matter what you do Say what? I believe that you heard your master sing while I was sick in bed I'm sure that he told you everything I must keep locked away in my head Your master took you traveling, well at least that's what you said And now do you come back to bring your prisoner wine and bread? Gimme some bread Gimme some bread Gimme some bread So loooong, Marianne Master Hey That's no way To say goodbye Master master, it's the motherfuckin' master song Master master, it's the motherfuckin' master song Fuck that Master master, it's the motherfuckin' master song Hook me up Waaaaahhh Get some autotune! Waaaaaa Haha That sounds good! Fish fillets Fish fillets! Come back Bring that beat back in Don't go
