Twin
Black and Schwarz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A valued member of community
I lead a quiet life, yet I'm far from bored
Because my job can be sheer lunacy
And in the nighttime, when the mood is right
A few drinks are all it takes to turn the tide
The monster's out of control again, till it's locked back up
It's howling and it's growling, better be careful not to touch
It's stomping and it's jumping and then it goes completely nuts
Meet my evil twin
No fear, I'm back in charge, everything's cool now
Guess I got careless for a second
Two hearts, two different minds in just one hull
And I'm the one who calls the shots
But in the nighttime, when the mood is right
A few drinks are all it takes to turn the tide
The monster's running free again, it can't be stopped
The monster's out of control again, till it's locked back up
It's howling and it's growling, better be careful not to touch
It's stomping and it's jumping and then it goes completely nuts
The monster's running free again, it can't be stopped
The monster's out of control again, till it's locked back up
It's howling and it's growling, better be careful not to touch
It's stomping and it's jumping and then it goes completely nuts
I'm out of control, there's no way to stop me
No harm, no foul, no body means no crime
No guts, no fun, no glory, no hero and no villain
Just me myself and my - my evil twin

The only way this collab could be any better would be if the dude from Primitive Technology made you a coffee grinder from scratch.

Forrest Livengood The only way this collab could be any better would be if Grant Thompson showed up and turned the egg whites and Co2 from the coffee into a rocket propulsion system that lofts the drink into the sky just to come back down and splat on the desert floor.
