Audio version of “Tangle Karma Ditty”
Careful who you tangle
your karma with my friend
it might seem unlikely or a
thing that should not have been
Careful who you tangle
up your karma with my friend
we rub off on one another and
that ain’t just hands & wind
Tangle karma, tangled up
Watch out who you touch
Tangle karma, action figure
Watch out who you touch
(it can make you sick
it can be your crutch
it can break you down
it can break you up)
tangle karma ties you, right?
bonds you into somebody else’s night
you follow & feel a tight
unlocked stasis
going against the grain
of every thing you’ve loved
wake up wrong & wake up late
wake up before you can’t escape
tangle karma bought the bones
fixed the dice, polished the stones
your fate is locked up in a greasy fist:
tangle your karmas at your own risk
