Catalytic cancer man
I'm just a scabby tatted man
Completely confused but I know who I am
Watching Jesus crash his astrovan
I'm a leaking lithium battery
And I'm stuck here burning the things around me
I'm the wheezing good time
Cancer man's a friend of mine
It's alchemy, It's alchemy
Turning bodies to grass and trees
Letting go of all the things
That aren't real to me, real to me
The cancer man's a bloody mess
He helps me handle all that stress
He reeks but we cut him slack
He knocks and wipes his feet at the mat
Relapse is cutting slack
Pleasure for money I won't get back
Flawed friends bring righteous shame
But the cancer man wants to see me play the game
It's unbelievable to believe
Through cancer life and peace
It's incredible to be seen
All we end up is grass and trees
I'm living my life f*cking free
Until I gotta smoke and pay the lease
It's treatable and conceived
To grip your life like it won't leave
He's a friend of yours
He's a friend to me
It's alchemy, It's alchemy
Turning bodies to grass and trees
Letting go of all the things
That aren't real to me, real to me
He's a friend of yours
He's a friend to me
