Intro
Mm
Put them back on
Same fridge
Same kitchen
Moon sitting in the draining rack
Right
We doing this
Verse 1
Head inna di clouds one sock on the radiator
Toast pops up black smoke alarm narrates it
Butter knife reflecting somewhere I ain't been
Little man inside the chrome says mind if I come in
Told him rent's expensive watched him disappear
Kettle boiled backwards sucked the steam out of the air
Got a text saying where you at I typed around the corner
Corner kept unfolding should've left the house much sooner
Lift arrived full of seawater fish around the buttons
Pressed ground floor an octopus politely pressed another
Nobody looked bothered so I kept my face composed
Reached inside my jacket found a beach between the folds
Hook
Head inna di clouds
Feet still owe the ground
Whole sky turning inside out
Tell them I'm around
Roots inna di soil
Stars caught in the coil
Take the long way through my head
Bring me home before the bread spoils
Verse 2
Supermarket aisle nine wormhole by the spices
Two-for-one on déjà vu same woman checking prices
Picked a tin of kidney beans it whispered my full name
Put it back
Picked another
Little bastard did the same
Frozen peas in orbit tiny green asteroid belt
Security asked need help I said depends what kind of help
He pointed to the checkout with a finger made of smoke
I thanked him like a normal man
That's how you keep afloat
Hook
Head inna di clouds
Feet still owe the ground
Whole sky turning inside out
Tell them I'm around
Roots inna di soil
Stars caught in the coil
Take the long way through my head
Bring me home before the bread spoils
Bridge
Phone buzz
Unknown number
Are you coming back
Voice sounded like me
With a mouthful of thunder
Looked down
Shopping split
Orange rolling slowly
Through a lunar eclipse
Verse 3
Chased it past a sleeping sun underneath a folded road
Caught it by the front door when the street began to close
Key turned
Shoes off
Kitchen where I'd left it
Milk warm
Bread crushed
Managed not to mention it
Sat down with the orange dug a thumbnail through the skin
Smell cut through the static
Let the little room back in
Headphones on the table leaking drums against the wood
I'd been halfway round creation
Hadn't eaten
Probably should
Final Hook
Head inna di clouds
Feet still owe the ground
Whole sky turning inside out
I'm here
I'm around
Roots inna di soil
Stars caught in the coil
Peel the orange
Keep the seeds
Leave the headphones off a while
Outro
Plant by the sink
Looking rough
Been exploring other dimensions
Forgot to water it
