The Acquaintance

from Mr. Garu by Pip

/

lyrics

Rollin on a wave
of independence
sock it to me babe

only the bare bones
flesh and zones
take me to a higher plane

the acquaintance knows
what comes it goes
freighted with exquisite tones

WHAT YOU'VE GOT IS WHAT YOU HAVE
THERE'S NO EXCHANGE, NO BEL AIR
THOUGH YOUR LOT IS CONSTANT FLUX
YOUR LIFE IS SAVED SWEET AND FAIR

the acquaintance knows
their appearance shows their grace
their compassion lights
with moral frame in place

Rollin on a wave
of independence
sock it to me babe

only the bare bones
flesh and zones
take me to a higher plane

luck is fickle
roll with the heft
and everywhere you go is home
you don't have to be alone
