The Edge of New Clothes by Open Mike Eagle Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Smoke a joint, chew a shroom, I ain't with the fairy dust
A humanist, but I don't like new people very much
Cherrynut wood, hood Ozzie and Harriet
I cover up a landslide, Pisces Iscariot
Hideous, ain't got a tuck, truck jewelry
A nice man that lost his mind, like Chuck Woolery
I'm tucked in an Amazon box, like, "What could it be?"
I strain my Achilles tryna leap sure-footedly
I stand when I rap, so a pulpit believable
The line that cut through the bullshit that people do
Yeah, make it happen like injecting progesterone
I'm Eddie Pepitone, yellin' 'til I'm left alone
No, past effort wasn't wrong for the chasin'
I neglected to call in replacements for all the occasions
Responsible for all limitations
So I only put my name on the strongest of statements, yeah
[Chorus]
Lyin' on the edge of a cliff
Watchin' everything fall down
Lyin' on the edge of the world
I ain't afraid of anything
Lyin' on the edge of a cliff
Watchin' everything fall down
Lyin' on the edge of the world
I ain't afraid of anything
[Verse 2]
Ain't nothin' fun, just dumb and emotional
I'm steady tryna separate fun from promotional
I'm doin' what I'm 'posed to do, doin' what I wanna do
I set myself for a move and a follow through
I can see the future from the seeds and the chronicles
Read yesterday just to know what tomorrow do
Ninety parts choice and like three parts destiny
I hate when my homies do coke and start textin' me
Make your own choices, self-care and your medicine
But I can see the sweat right there in the letterin'
Businesses don't fight fair, it's competitive
Money have you singin' "Nightmares" in your head again
Don't nobody give a fuck, just let me figure out
What I ever know for sure and give a shit about
Promise when I'm gone, you'll pretend to remember me
'93 Bulls, pay your dues and your member fees
[Chorus]
Lyin' on the edge of a cliff
Watchin' everything fall down
Lyin' on the edge of the world
I ain't afraid of anything
Lyin' on the edge of a cliff
Watchin' everything fall down
Lyin' on the edge of the world
I ain't afraid of anything
Smoke a joint, chew a shroom, I ain't with the fairy dust
A humanist, but I don't like new people very much
Cherrynut wood, hood Ozzie and Harriet
I cover up a landslide, Pisces Iscariot
Hideous, ain't got a tuck, truck jewelry
A nice man that lost his mind, like Chuck Woolery
I'm tucked in an Amazon box, like, "What could it be?"

[Chorus]
Lyin' on the edge of a cliff
Watchin' everything fall down
Lyin' on the edge of the world
I ain't afraid of anything
Lyin' on the edge of a cliff
Watchin' everything fall down
Lyin' on the edge of the world
I ain't afraid of anything
