The Matter - Cobra

I'm trying to kill a cobra, but I might get bit.
I wanna get a little loopy without taking a hit.
I wanna go skydiving without getting too high.
Wanna roll with the coals.
Wanna preach rock and soul,
Wanna preach to the world,
I wanna fuck somebody!
I don't take no risk.
I'm trying to kill a cobra, but it's frightening me.
I want to make an omelette without getting
That eggy mess all over my kitchen sink.
I wanna hit a man.
I wanna knock him dead.
Beat his face with my hand,
Till the brother can't stand
Kick his nads, break his wrist
But I'm a pacifist, Lord!
I don't take no risk.
I have become a liar.
I ain't got no choice.
I will become a liar.
Until I ain't got no choice.
But to break these chains and raise my motherfucking voice.

I woke to see my face today
In a way I made the mirror break
I glanced at my days to come
In a scar I dug their grave
So wake me when those days are done
With something worth working on
Wake me with a kind of love
All covered in fume and steam
A lizard grows in you and me
He’ll burst in where I end
He‘ll find the slit where you begin
So hold me tight and in our bond
We’ll squeeze the breath out of the thorn
And together we’ll be left alone
There’s a kind of love in your heart
As I picture you leaving it leaves a mark
On the rug
Once a harvester of love in need
You’re better off by leaving me
As seeds will grow and so will I
This time you should give in to fear
Still you hold me in a loved regard
Admiring the wounds you got
You hold me with a kind of love
As if I never hurt you, dear
So long you chose to believe
Tales turn true only if you want
I know it’s a shallow relief
So call me lover instead of love
And leave me lover by the dawn
Leave me with a kind of love
There’s a kind of love in your heart
As I picture you leaving it leaves a mark
On the rug

Let's assume that the ship never sinks
Let's assume that the good man wins
Let's assume that I have no fears
Don't listen when I cry my tears
Let's assume I can say what I want
Anytime, in case I'm unsatisfied
Let's assume all women have power to change
Even though their beauty has faded away
Weightless waves catch me
Drag me away from the fog
Ain't no better in the Sun
I mime words and sounds
I hear whispered on a bus
I'll do it better if I must
Let's assume that all riddles of science are solved
Wildness of sounds won't seduce my soul
Let's assume that we're all seventeen and free
Let's assume that it's always summer to me
Weightless waves catch me
Drag me away from the fog
Ain't no better in the Sun
I mime words and sounds
I hear whispered on a bus
I'll do it better if I must

Is love a friend or foe
I wondered and got quite sure
When love goes
It takes away the smiles
Off the faces
You once put them on
Is love a friend or foe
I wondered and got quite sure
When love's gone
There ain't a thing but trouble
You cry over all
That was once the two of you
