It's gotta be a link to another
Now his hairstyle's different, means he's uplifted?
He's on drugs now his hat's on twisted
Must be what it symbolises, I hit it
Broken bottle, seven melting candles
Ain't no symbolism I can't handle, nothing escapes me
Can't bluff me, check ev'ry frame, nothing that I can't see
Not crazy, buddy
This git chews coca (ohh) that git drinks cola (ohh)
Put it together (ayy) secret plug, gotcha (mmm)

At short notice (uh)
Though those red eyes must symbolise your unsteadiness
That character is yourself, it's obvious
Didn't take long to ruminate about this
Once again: gotcha!
Give me props, won'tcha, cuz I broke
Through your secret shtick, I won't blame you if you don't
Your stuff I watch - fill ten sheets of paper
Of notes and all that shite, solvin' this caper
Always hintin', but at what? Well
There's this bit from that one scene in the jail cell
Guy's troubled, got tattoos and some stubble
I write this all down, gonna figure out this puzzle
(Yeah, yeah)
Guy wants to leave, yeah?
A metaphor for something's in there somewhere

Belle's in the deli, askin' for some jelly
Tattooed "Melee" on her belly - what does that mean, buddy?
Please explain it; yes I act like I know it
But I'm just making up shit; I'm good at that shit
And I need this; make sense of your universe
That you done created, but tell me first:
Does anything symbolise
I ask because I always seem to find
When I ask this to the creator guys
They almost never intended to symbolise
So I ask, buddy, were, in your plans
Any intent for symbolism in your crap?
Tell me why don'tcha (ohh) tell me why don'tcha (ohh)
Tell me why don'tcha (ayy) tell me why don'tcha (mmm)
