It’s a welcome change of pace when A Lizard State picks up the tempo in Krule’s debut 6 Feet Beneath the Moon. Backed by horns, Marshall adopts a Rat Pack swagger and ramps up the self-confidence as he pleads with a lover to do what he tells her to. He conjures something of menace when he threatens...
[Verse 1]
I don't care about sunny days
Gonna keep it out of sight but under shade
I'm gonna keep it out of sight but under shade
It's gonna be like this
And that's alright
And that's okay
Is that okay?
Myself would beat these lines
In my head I'm getting dead tired of this shit you've caused
You fucking bitch
You don't know when to stop
You're a bunch of fat bitches, you motherfucking fat bitches
Fat bitches!
[Pre Chorus]
Well I don't wanna be trapped in the black of your heart
And now I'm gonna fuck things over 'cos that's a start
Well if I can't have her then no one can
[Chorus]
Oh, but baby what am I to do
I've given up on loving you
I know it's not nothing new
So please do what I ask you to
And please do what I want of you
It's just not fair
Baby blue, and girl it's true
One day I'm gonna have you
But for now I don't care
I still feel the pain
Of you not loving me the same
[Verse 2]
There was not much that I could do
Oh, not much that I could do
(Trapped in a lizard state!)
Well I got everyone on my back
But I'm not gonna crack like you cracked
You're a fucking pussy boy
Sipping up on my humblepie
You got no legs to get you near my height
So don't try and get near my hide
Don't try and get out the way yeah
I see what you gotta say
I hear your lizard state
If that's okay and if that's not okay
Say girl now what's okay
[Pre Chorus]
Well I don't want to be trapped in the black of your heart
And now I'm gonna make it clear and girl I'll tear you apart
From the inside to the out
[Verse 3]
But baby what am I to do
I've given up on loving you
I know it's not nothing new
So please do what I ask you to
And please do what I want of you
It's just not fair
Baby blue and girl it's true
One day I'm gonna have you
But for now I don't care
I still feel the pain
Of you not loving me the same
But girl what was I supposed to do?
Yeah I was so hung up on loving you
And girl believe me this is something new
‘Cause all I will do
Is girl whatever I have to do
They all knifed me in the back and girl I can’t believe
It’s slipping away like that

“A Lizard State”, that was mad. That was like kind to do with the girl that I got from “Baby Blue.” I woke one morning and I wrote the whole song in like the period of an hour, ‘cause I had this burning pain in my mind and I wanted to throw...
