31 in the shade and I can't understand
How i feel like the only man left in Iceland
It's rainy and cold and everyone looks glum
But I feel like I'm standing in a ray of sun
Motorbike on a kickstand, waiting for Zen maintenance
Broke down on the highway and stationary ever since
It all seems futile, count the hours till sleep
With every breath a little closer to death I creep
Man, don't sink too deep, don't be so f**king heavy man
Just keep on writing raps with a steady hand
Because that's all that matters, infact, it's all there is
I got spite and envy mixed up for married life with kids
I fear the path of least resistance, so, time for a rain dance
To make sure I don't dry up, like, never took a chance
But I' wouldn't rap on a Polka, so who 'm I talking to?
Maybe like the Buddhist's say, life's like a GroundHog day
We're all stuck in our cycles, forever and eternal
Perfecting our lines, and making notes in our journal
If there's one kernal of truth in everything I've known
It's at the end of it all we're really all alone
If you stress out and try to answer all the questions
Life will be like a spacebar, a series of depressions
All I know is I'm as insignificant as a flee
But yet the most important thing that's ever happened to me
And that will set you free, even if shit looks bleak
And you can change your way any day of the week
But who am I to speak for any but myself
'cause I can only see the cards that I've been dealt
Now you can diss the dealer, 'cause the dealers corrupt
Or you can do like Krakatoa and just go errupt
If you've had enough, don't call the dealer's bluff
Just walk away from the table, like you don't give a stuff
It's like Metallica say, nothing else matters
The game is full of checia cats and mad hatters
It's 31 in the shade and I can't understand
How i feel like the only man left in Iceland
Rainy and cold and everyone looks glum
But I feel like I'm standing in a ray of sun
I can't see my way -
It's like a wall, you see, you can't really see over it from that side
You can't see the other side, but you still know it's there
What's there? -
Man, everything's f**ked up, I can't find my way
But you were still alive at the break of day
Oh that's just like you, eternal optimist
But you get so negative when you get so pissed
I'm only drinking 'cause I'm sober and not going places
Yeah, but then you diss everything on the value of faces
But if you dig deeper things will seem even worse
Man, life is more like a bicycle than a herse
Don't you ever feel like an old lady with an empty purse?
If that's your attitude maybe you should get a wet nurse
Oh so I'm immature 'cause I see how it is
Yeah but just having a whinge is acting just like a kid
You can't take every twist and turn without skids
But you can stick to the road if you don't blow your lid
Man, I don't really see the point to all your advice
Yeah but one day you'll look back and you'll see that I'm right
It's 31 in the shade and I can't understand
How i feel like the only man left in Iceland
It's rainy and cold and everyone looks glum
But I feel like I'm standing in a ray of sun
It's 31 in the shade, I can't understand
How i feel like the only man left in Iceland
Rainy and cold and everyone looks glum
But I feel like I'm standing in a ray of sun
