Four-hundred and fifty-six on the dizzice
This is real lizzife, ain’t nothin sweet God
Sit down and think it through God
Cuz comin all outta ya face’ll get ya clap God

[Girl]
You are now listening to the sounds of Supreme Clientele

states, the journey of a flightless dove,
Uncertainty, of those words that hov-,
