Applied Science Songtext
von 311

Nod your head to this as a lot of apprentice
Some of this we′re standing on the shoulder of giants
Some tyrants, some benevolent
To the followers it's relevant
The rest get bent on lending opinions

I′m sending to a brand-new level
I revel in completion
I like to see deletion of the parasites
To make the load light
Fools know rules, but the rest keep bouncing back

With the lack of further ado, see
As one can deduce, we kick out the jams
Slam the shit out hard and long
'Cause we got more song, dig, check it

Something you might like now
All-star bound
Yeah, you're so sound
Cool as the blue water all around


From a force field flashing, somebody is sending
Black evolutions of love you are hearing
The dark supernatural is the world we call
Our own home lightning in the mind comes out in song
But we′re wild they say, never trust us, we′re shady
In lieu of the crew you're into, we are baby

′Cause music will be coming out the words we speak
We erect breakbeats, shatter wax still on the platter
Our shit is badder, we come fly, then we scatter
'Cause we deep, and we solid, yeah, we hear ya holler

Electricity running through, is all that feels good
Sometimes the only thing that really ever could
Feed that hunger, I crave it, I love it, I gave it
I shove it in a battery and save it for later

A waiter in the Dorothy C. Pavilion in ′89
I met some wierdos, and had myself a real good time
Downtown L.A. is a soul graveyard
Where you got to be hard or get jacked

It lacked a certain sense of something
Something basic, no harm in the least, I broke east
You know I had to face it
I guess I flaked, but it was no mistake, because
311's got the boom, y′all


My mic check is giving me electric company
I can't see the high wide sky, or stars above me
Are you a flower, or more like a high-rise tower
If so the soul of sweet delight, on you will shower

There's a place for us they say is somewhere
Not a dream, but a place, and you will be there
You′re slippin′ but content, because your spirit
And the hills are alive, with the sound of music

People never see the whole trip of life
Grab knowledge, man, and all you do is syph
