The Miller Test - Up, Down, Sideways and Strange
Up, down, sideways and strange!
★ Verse 1 - Mink & Emma ★
Deep in the desert, riddlin' the sphynx
I'd say forever but it isn't what she thinks
(Don't say nothing)
(Don't say nothing)
Here in the desert, livin' is cheap
Cross all the mountain, and they're lyin', they're asleep
(We can take 'em)
(It's a rude awaken)
Shoulda known it, it never ends
Big black clouds here for you and all your friends
Got sense to shelter, from the rain
★ Hook - Mink & Emma ★
Up, down, sideways and strange!
★ Verse 2 - Mink, Emma, Mink & Emma ★
They'll take your issue, offer 'em game
Mark up the young ones as they borrow off the lame
(With perfection)
(What a sad reflection)
Untie the harness, set 'em all free
K-keep the ashes of the flowers, they're from me
(And those who laugh can kiss my a-ass)
First to last
Stick to position, get with the system
Dealin' favours in a devil's prison
My son, no word, no luck, no change
★ Hook - Mink & Emma ★
Up, down, sideways and strange!
★ Instrumental Break ★
★ Verse 3 - Mink, Emma, Mink & Emma ★
In its existence, gonna seek assistance
Something toxic comin' at us from a distance
So I get high, look her in the eye
Tell her I went on lyin'
To the subway, down to the train
Can't say what it is brings us here again
(Escape a red light)
(Gon' take the mainline, disgrace the bloodline)
Hand on the mark is mine
Excuse the violence, as evidence of age
You wanna feel it comin' at ya from the stage
Outrageous, out of range (Up, down)
★ Hook - Mink & Emma ★
Up, down, sideways and strange!
(Up, down, sideways, strange, up, down, sideways, strange...)
Up, down, up, down, up, down, up, down, up, down...
Up, down, sideways and strange!
Up, down, sideways and strange
