Lyrical Puddle 000...


I used to do a lot of "lyric" pics where I try to translate the energy and image sequence I get from a song...I wanna start it again. There are a handful of Janelle Monae's songs I want to do, I really dig her energy. I did this doodle while listening to "Faster". I'll probably do this song several times, it's one of my favorites. Soooo yeah. The lyrics are here:

You, since that magic day
We've been like magnets in a place
We smash in then pull away
Every day

You...you you're a jet, a flying gun
You kill me softly with your sun
You melt my wings and call it fun
I should run

Faster and faster I should run
Faster and faster from your arms
Faster and faster I should run
Faster and faster from your arms

I watch my powers die
Falling out of starry skies
You kryptonite my life
Every night
Oh the ending of the road
Dashing prince or horny toad?
Who really ever knows?
I should know

Faster and faster I should run
Faster and faster from your arms
Faster and faster I should run
Faster and faster from your arms

Mmmm yeah, yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah
I'm running, running, running, running
I'm shaking like, shaking like a schizo
Electric sheep all over my field
They dancing dancing dancing in the window
My heart beats it beats for you and only you
And it's kicking like a kick kick drum
Am I a freak?
Ah...am I a freak?
Or just another little weirdo?
I'll be weak, or better yet you can call me
You can call me your hero baby

You can't zap down all my good times
I know right from wrong
Kissing loving's feeling good and not this feeling down
You hide your chainsaw deep in kisses
That don't make it quiet
You got me running, muttering, screaming, each and every night

Faster and faster I should run
Faster and faster from your arms
Faster and faster I should run
Faster and faster from your arms

  1. I used to do this back in highschool. I think I still have a radiohead one lying around somewhere. I'll dig it up and show it to you :D
