First Transmission Lyrics

    I know who i am
    I'm not who you think i am

    I know who i am
    I'm not who you think i am

    I know who i am
    I'm not who you think i am

    I know who i am

    I'm rock
    I'm roll
    Nat king cole
    Schatzakovic drowning in a fish bowl
    Earthling something you can never get a hold of
    Baby took a load off
    And then she strolled off
    Whistling
    Hummin'
    Thumbin' a ride
    "driver won't you take me to the other side?"
    I'm a book
    A poem
    By leonard cohen
    Son of the dice man
    And i won't stop throwing
    I'm boris karloff
    The man they could not hang
    I'm a ruffneck romantic
    Talkin' that slang
    I'm jesus christ superstar
    Driving around in an old yellow car
    I'm jumping on the balcony
    Landing on a bigger man
    I can fly
    I fly to japan
    Hail stones falling on my dreads
    Reminding me of something hendrix said

    Tunes from the room
    Come back on many levels
    Sounds from the earthling swing and dishevel
    I'm pollyana in the way that i portray
    Poo poo
    La la
    I kiss you on a good day

    Hey little beetle
    Sliding in my bath
    When you flip on your back
    You really make me laugh
    I used to kill worms when i was a kid
    Like mr. mclaren, someday i'll kill sid
    Crazy how my girl wants a simple life
    She's a simple schizophrenic but we get along fine
    I'm a young parisian,
    Maybe i'm mistaken
    Maybe i'm cuban
    Maybe i'm jamaican

    I know who i am
    I'm not who you think i am

    I know who i am
    I'm not who you think i am

    I know who i am
    I'm not who you think i am

    I know who i am

    I never say "never"
    I always say "more"
    I know the score
    I know what to look for

    I know who i am
    I'm not who you think i am
    I know who i am

    Kickin' like a kung-fu shakespeare
    Another girl another planet
    On the corner, just wasted
    Oh gosh
    Oh gosh
    Oh juliette binoche
    I'm on my way to babylon, by bus

    I'm a big bloke
    When i smoke, i don't choke
    "hi malachi" let's talk about hope
    In the beginning
    Head spinin' make me dizzy
    I'm the mirror man
    So don't ask who is it
    London is my city
    Jamaica's my country
    Africa's my history
    It ain't no mistery
    How i came to be
    Earthling-free
    Sitting in ilford watching tv

    Where's uhura
    On an adventure
    Did she touch your sexual centre?
    Cursing
    Never seen an earthling
    Never seen a microphone
    Microphone
    Now i'm all alone

    Lost in my head
    On the road until tomorow
    I'm double demented
    Like william burroughs
    P to the i to the m p
    Pimp
    Sako urinocho reading iceberg slim

    I'm marcus garvey
    I'm harvey keitel
    I'm the ghost of a dog chasing edie brickell
    It's crazy perplexing
    I'm hexing like a haitian
    I'm an arowak indian
    Picking pockets like fagan

    I know who i am
    I'm not who you think i am

    I know who i am
    I'm not who you think i am

    I know who i am
    I'm not who you think i am

    I know who i am

    I never say "never"
    I always say "more"
    I know the score
    I know what to look for

    I know who i am
    I'm not who you think i am
    I know who i am
    I know who i am
    I'm not who you think i am
    I know who i am
    I'm not who you think i am
    I know who i am
    I'm not who you think i am
    I know who i am
    I know who i am
    I'm not who you think i am
    I know who i am
    I'm not who you think i am
    I know who i am
    I'm not who you think i am
    I know who i am

    I'm michelangello working on a totem pole
    I'm gallileo studying shinto
    I'm the rest of the earth giving birth to a baby
    Grasshopper, tell me about slavery

    I'm in a sauna, watching television
    Yeah, tripitaka gave me permission
    I'm that man in 1686
    Saying black people come from venus
    Yeah

    I saw her reading poetry
    Practising verses
    What's the meaning of 33 degrees in the morning ?
    It ain't easy man
    It ain't easy
