EXT. NIGHTCLUB / ALLEYWAY - NIGHT
A booming beat drops. SUNNI BLU (played by TRACY MORGAN) holds the mic mid-cypher outside the back entrance.
SUNNI BLU
Other witches stay in the chat,
But me, I’m different.
This is the world I been living in:
I’m in the club right now,
Camouflage pants and Illuminati fitted.
Ain’t no wigs getting snatched,
We in the back right now.
It’s a movie,
In the second act right now.
I ain’t gotta think back right now,
Matter of fact right now,
Roll a fattie right now,
Get smacked right now, if you want, but
Ain’t no wigs getting snatched right now.
Other witches stay in the chat,
But me, I’m different.
Matter of fact;
I just wrote a rap right now!
This is the world I been living in.
OK;
Three times,
Three times:
Mitch McConnell throwing up the peace sign.
Now I got three times on me,
Got a one-track diamond mind though,

Anything can happen at brunch!

SUNNI BLU

Plot twist,

’Bout to take a bunch of rocks…

’Cause I’m on my God shit.
I ain’t no house,
I’m progressive experiment.
I just bought a house in Malibu,
Oh.

And find me a hobby,
End up in the lobby just flaunting.
Uh,
Every house I go is haunted.

But been on my Peloton,
Yeah.

That’s not a secret.
I am a seeker,
Avid

I am
Leader
Of the free world.
Once you see me,
You won’t need her.
Ahahahaha!
I got chin-checked,

Write me a check
And then go for a run.
Smoke me a Brunson,

Cake.
She mad at me 'cause her butt

Yessir, an asshole,

I been on SNAP,
Crackle-pop,
Head of the household.
NATALIE NUNN
...I am... so confused.
MYSTIC (V.O.)
(ethereal incantation)
You don’t belong,
Just come and go...
Although we share a common goal.
SUNNI BLU pulls out a glossy photograph of JIMMY KIMMEL and thrusts it directly before Natalie.
SUNNI BLU
Have you seen this man?!
NATALIE NUNN doesn’t respond, only squinting in a sort of angry, drunken confusion—looking immaculate, nonetheless.
SUNNI BLU (CONT'D)
That’s fine. What about this one?
SUNNI BLU whips out a headshot of JAY LENO. NATALIE squints again, registering a flash of visceral recognition.
SUNNI BLU (CONT'D)
Of course you have. That’s your fatha.
SUNNI BLU tosses both photos to the pavement.
SUNNI BLU (CONT'D)
You can keep that.
NATALIE NUNN is reality television’s most notorious and high-profile SHAPESHIFTER, whose current extraterrestrial identity is unknown; this may be a deep-cover agent, or perhaps even a high-ranking intergalactic government official using NATALIE as its current host.
Some extraterrestrials are trademarked by their extremely high tolerance for alcohol consumption and hybrid human appearance.
SUNNI BLU (TRACY MORGAN) has been in hot pursuit of a highly volatile shapeshifting aviary, last known to have been seen with the entity CHAOS, who often conforms as the high-profile television personality JIMMY KIMMEL, whose actual true identity remains unknown.
These entities are notorious for multiversal structure decomposure and material construction through the consumption and distribution of "intoxicant substances"—drugs and spirits which alter the perception of the human body and mind, allowing the multi-billion-century-long war to carry on in multilateral intergalactic directions across charted and uncharted territories of the cosmic grid.
SUNNI BLU (CONT'D)
You’re right. I don’t fit in.
NATALIE NUNN
You’re lost!
SUNNI BLU
What?
NATALIE NUNN
You’re lost, right?
SUNNI BLU
Listen, Nat, I know your script is not normally printed on paper and shit, but—
NATALIE NUNN
It still isn’t. I just get the digital—
SUNNI BLU
That’s enough lessons.
NATALIE NUNN
Huh? What?
SUNNI BLU
You’re lost, right?
Suddenly, NATALIE seems genuinely confused.
SUNNI BLU hurries off into the night, somewhat lifted, and grimaces, chuckling under her breath an evil and sort of maniacal laugh.
INT. SURVEILLANCE QUARTERS - CONTINUOUS
TWO INTERGALACTIC AGENTS—high-ranking alien operatives embedded on Earth, disguised in standard casual attire—sit in front of a flat-screen monitor, surveillance feeds running alongside an intercepted terrestrial television broadcast of "Enter The Multiverse."
AGENT 1
What just happened?
AGENT 2
I think they just shifted.
AGENT 1
No, they switched.
AGENT 2
What? I don’t get this.
AGENT 1
They switched it.
AGENT 2
With WHAT? I don’t GET this!
{Enter The Multiverse}
ON SCREEN:
The entity masquerading as NATALIE NUNN continues its erratic frequency discharge, stumbling across the club perimeter with hyper-accelerated cadence.
BLU THA GURU
Woah,
Baddie is famous,
Catch me outside though,
I am
DRUNK.
Bitch, it’s Monday morning,
Why the fuck you in the club?
’Bout to get a bag
And maybe open up a pub.
I be feeling good,
Just having coffee in my cup.
I don’t pay the tab,
I be chilling in the tub.
I got lots of luck,
Eh,
I get lots of love,
Ey,
Twisting up my locs,
Ey.
I be calling
Cops
On the ops,
Shut that dog up!
If I even show up at the place,
Then I got product!
I keep a code of conduct,
Do it for the bag,
But you won’t see me with a product.
I ain’t tryna fuck with n***as,
If I need a confirm,
I’m not Natalie for now, but cross 'cause I’m a nun-nun.
AGENT 1
LOL, that’s enough.
AGENT 2
I agree.
BLU THA GURU
This ain’t no fun no more,
I lost too much weight so I can’t run no more.
Ain’t got a number though,
I’m on the honor roll.
I might rent a yacht
And end up in the harbor though.
BITCH, I WANT SOME PIZZA!
’Bout to call the plug,
It’s Monday morning,
Finna re-up.
Bitch, I did a relay,
I got married with a prenup.
Call that n***a Charlie Brown
’Cause he be on some peanuts.
I can’t chase a motherfucker,
Bitch, I need some
PENIS.
Bring them in a Cadillac
And send them in a
PRIUS.
They be on some slavery,
But I been tryna
FREE US.
I been on the
KETO,
Keep them bagels in the
FREEZER.
Bitch, it’s Monday morning,
What you doing in the club?
BACK TO THE MONITOR ROOM:
The two AGENTS track the sub-vocal audio waves, cross-referencing biometric signatures against cosmic mainframe records.
AGENT 1
You’re right. That’s not Ms. Nunn.
AGENT 2
They switched it.
AGENT 1
Correct.
AGENT 2
And by "they," you mean—?
AGENT 1
He.
AGENT 2
So it is him.
AGENT 1
Facts.
AGENT 2
What do you think he wants?
AGENT 1
He’s trying to find the other Tritarians.
AGENT 2
How do you know that?
AGENT 1
...I recently found out... I may be Tritarian.
AGENT 2
—So you have a connection?
AGENT 1
Negative. I’ve been taking some side work decrypting languages for the fourth chapter of the Pritherion Hyphex.
AGENT 2
So you have access to Tritarian knowledge vaults by right of passage. Interesting genetics.
AGENT 1
Maybe.
AGENT 2
Well, I stand corrected. Maybe you aren’t hopeless after all.
AGENT 1
No, I’m hopeless. Useless, maybe not.
AGENT 2
Don’t get ahead of yourself.
AGENT 1
—I’m not.
A beat.
AGENT 1 (CONT'D)
Or—I won’t.

MUSIC CUE: "Lady Madonna" (The Beatles - Love Version) plays as the scene transitions: MONTAGE.
INT. STUDIO 8H - SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE - NIGHT
JIMMY FALLON pays a visit to the SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE set, taking in the environment with candor and nostalgia.
Suddenly, an OBJECT arcs across Studio 8H and hits Jimmy Fallon square in the face.
KAM PATTERSON (O.S.)
Ten points!
ASHLEY PADILLA
What IS that?!
JEREMY CULHANE
(nervous laughter)
Ahahahahah!
The object lands on the floor. UPON CLOSER INSPECTION, it appears to be a freshly severed HUMAN HEART
JANE WICKLINE
Um. I think it’s—
ASHLEY PADILLA
Don’t touch that.
JEREMY CULHANE
We’re not going to tell anybody about this.
JANE WICKLINE
...Is it still beating?!
JEREMY CULHANE
Shh. Shut up.
KAM PATTERSON
What are you doing with it?
JEREMY CULHANE
With what?

DJ NOTES:
{ADHD DISTRACTION IMMINENT}

... but I think I’ve already done that exact mix already.
MEANWHILE
INT. JEREMY'S DRESSING ROOM / PARNASSUS LAB
PROFESSOR PARNASSUS (played by JEREMY CULHANE) stands maniacally over THE HEART in his makeshift alchemical lab, as it beats with a GLOWING GREEN AURA from its assembled GATE.
He leans in closer, drooling at the prospect of his most recent capture; he not only believes it to be, but knows it is indeed the famed HEART OF ION OF ITHIOS lore; a folk legend, but now his own, residing in his lab.
His SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE castmate SAIDA enters, after a couple of knocks at the door. Suddenly the lighting shifts, as he is taken off guard.
SAIDA
Um.
JEREMY CULHANE
Hey.
(clears throat)
Ahem. [I mean]
Oh, hiiiii.
SAIDA
Yeah.
JEREMY CULHANE
Ahem. Yeah.
SAIDA
So you have an evil lab in your dressing room?
JEREMY CULHANE
(shrugs)
It came like this.
SAIDA
OK. Mine has antlers on the wall; I’m trying to know how to feel about that.
JEREMY CULHANE
Disingenuous, perhaps.
SAIDA
I agree.
He fails to turn around, deflated, still hovering over the glowing heart with his instruments.
SAIDA (CONT'D)
...Are you coming to lunch?
JEREMY CULHANE
...Yes.
SAIDA
(deadpan)
All right.
JEREMY CULHANE
’K.
SAIDA
All right.
JEREMY CULHANE
OK.
SAIDA
All right.
SAIDA exits, shutting the door gently and turning around.
INT. 8H HALLWAY - CONTINUOUS
KENAN THOMPSON is directly behind her, almost miraculously.
KENAN THOMPSON
He has it.
SAIDA
Yes.
KENAN THOMPSON
Perfect. Follow me to my chambers.
SAIDA
I ordered lunch.
KENAN THOMPSON
IT WILL WAIT.
SAIDA sighs, disgruntled, and follows KENAN; they lift their HOODED ROBES in synchronicity.

EXT. ISLES OF YUM - DAY
A herald sounds an alarm from the battlement.

Hahaha.
I’m up under the plug
I put the stuff under the rug and then I gave my love a hug
Cause I knew I would never see the best of him
I wonder what would happen if the glove fit;
Perhaps the earth would suddenly turn perfect
And the dirt out back where dirt is
I got the rumble of the subway under my feet
I got the children or the whole world under my teet
I got a number in my notebook that I’m trying to meet
I’m stuck on repeat, cause I eat the teeth of the week
My knot’s ruthless;
I showed you rubies but I didn’t mean to do this
So don’t approach if you don’t wear those broaches,
I used to live with roaches,
And now I got teams of the people looking for me
Asking where the coach is
Not a purse
I put a problem in reverse and
Made his humor even worse
Heard a rumor he divorced
But didn’t hear you heard it first from me,
I made a gallery of secrets,
But subliminally leaked it
I don’t own not a one Prada
I got a lot of problems,
But I ain’t get a therapist to talk about em
Bout to put a rock inside a fountain and then light it up
I write it up and hide a book inside of dem
I'm in the center of a circle of snakes;
The only mistake I seem to make
Is being sacred
They
Tried me set me up with butter faces and balloons l
But paid attention to the tunes
That I was writing dude since citing Blu
I had to spend a night or two inside of you
True or false.
False.
Where the fuck’s the motherfucking sauce?
I want some pasta;
I’m on another lost cause
Probably finna boss,
Cause I been on one
Bout to shop at Ross
I’m on the west coast
Where the fuck’s my French toast
Ordered up a trauma
One a billion off a crop duster,
Conspiracy,
You probably can’t hear this
You keep on getting near to me
But I go ear to ear with them
Jimmy crack corn
And also
Pornography
Hahas again.
Never forget
I’m interested in the architecture.
It almost never what’s inside
This morning I think I died,
Just knowing I would sit in this line
In mu own mind,
Wasting my whole time
Inside a notebook
Feeling like I’m lying to myself,
To say that I’ve been healthy,
More like happier than ever;
Which I’ve realized, isn’t even happy at all
I’m in a fight over motorcycles for Christ sakes
This just isn’t right ey,
I can’t wait to Friday
Cause I got a
Craving for Satan.
I may forget my ibuprofen aspirin
Every now and then
But we were never friends, and it depends what kind of world your in on whether this will make a difference
Or just begin another lesson,
This is part of the regression,
I was bound to get in a wreck
Or in a fender bender
At one point or another
The dirty motherfucker cut me off
And didn’t have his blinker on
And wreaked of vodka
Everytime he speaks to me
Or he responds
He’s really on some other shit
I think a fucking astronaut or something
Cause I was dreaming
Or screaming for your consciousness
I’m optionless and watching reruns of Oprah
Stuck inside this opera house like hostages
Cause I’m a fucking moron,
Colin,
Pull the plug
I’m Jost a Scarlet
Joe- Hanson, as Tom is.
Ahdgh.
SONA enters, clutching her left ribcage.
She appears to have been STABBED.
Don’t say stabbed.
For all I know, that might happen.
Fucking magical idiots.
Imbiciles!
You know what. You’re right. I’ll fix it,
She is [quite obviously] WOUNDED.
DAVID
Sona! Hello.
SONA
Yeah.
DAVID
You look nice.
SONA
I always do.
DAVID
Except you have a little something on your—
[he realizes her wound]
DAVID
Oh.
SONA
Yeah.
DAVID
…should I ask, or?
SONA
He stabbed me again.
DAVID
—Conan?!
SONA
Who else would keep stabbing me?
DAVID
You’re right.
SONA
Could you—
?
DAVID
Certainly.
He exits, leaving SONA to her own accord;
She removes a small wrap of sorts from a cabinet above the pantry, pulling with her teeth, before activating it, reaching for what appears to be a WAND before wrapping it around herself; she partially collapses on the counter and takes a sigh of relief, before pointing the wand briefly at her ailments; she only begins to heal barely when suddenly, she hears her employer— and magical companion— working his way in.
She takes a sigh of dilapidated defeat, calling out.
SONA
Ugh— don’t come in here!
CONAN
Are you serious? How long could this be taking? It’s just a stab wound.
SONA
I’m not ready for you yet.
CONAN
I would have thought for you to be halfway up the canyons by now.
SONA
— through the same place twice.
CONAN
What if I use my wand? Would that be making any difference? It’s quicker.
SONA
It is.
CONAN
So it’s settled then.
SONA
Well, go ahead then.
CONAN
—I don’t have it.
SONA
Then why did you say anything—?!
CONAN
I was just affirming it’s quickness.
SONA
Are you serious
CONAN
It is superior.
SONA
Forget it, I’m already finished.
CONAN
Well then—I guess I’m useless.
SONA
You’re an idiot.
CONAN
Did it leave a scar?
SONA
Probably. Last time it did.
CONAN looks at his CANE SWORD with a dignified approval.
CONAN
That is nice, then. Remind me to send a thank you gift for him.
SONA
I already did.
CONAN
(Scoffs)
Well, that’s ironic; didja consider whether you’d be getting stabbed with it?
SONA
[Yeah]
—I contemplated.
CONAN
Go get cleaned up.
You look disheveled.
SONA just groans and raises herself from atop the counter.
GORLEY enters with a boba tea.
GORLEY
He stabbed you again.
SONA
Masterful observation.
SONA exits, healed but, barely.
GORLEY
I wish I had magic.
CONAN
Me too. Then I’d stab you.
GORLEY giggles and sips his boba tea.
GORLEY
Well then, kinda glad I don’t.
CONAN quickly whips around and zaps him with his wand, oblitherating his BOBA TEA.
CONAN
(Mumbles smugly)
Can’t fix that with magic.
CONAN strides away.
GORLEY sighs. He is covered in delicious BOBA tea, however the BOBA has spread across the floor. DAVID returns and stands at the doorway.
DAVID
Oh.

“The Secret Life of Sona”
SUNNI BLŪ has just purchased a house nestled quaintly in the vacinity of former late night host CONAN O’BRIEN, and is alarmed that he is huge, has bright red hair, and can frequently enough be seen JOGGING that it IRKS her.
SUNNI BLŪ
YO, WHAT.
AGH.

What’s this.
MORGAN
What are you pointing at.
[CONAN O’BRIEN JOGGING, PANTING]
SUNNI BLU
How can you not see that?!
MORGAN
See what! What am I looking at?!
[she points out the window at CONAN jogging by.]
MORGAN
…that man?
SUNNI BLU
Is that a “man"?
MORGAN
Um… yeah? I…yeah, I think that’s Conan O’ Brien, actually.
SUNNI BLU
Ah. You know him.
MORGAN
No?
SUNNI BLU (gesturing to red-headedness)
He’s your kind.
MORGAN
Uhh—-
[she shakes her head, then looks back toward the window]
MORGAN CONT’D
Oh, you mean redheaded.
SUNNI BLU
That’s…exactly what I meant.
MORGAN
I thought you meant white.
SUNNI BLU
You are white.
MORGAN
Yeah but—
SUNNI BLU
[a blank stare]
MORGAN CONT’D
Nevermind.
SUNNI BLU
So you know him.
MORGAN
Uhh—I mean, I know of him–yeah–
SUNNI BLU
He’s your uncle or something.
MORGAN
–???
SUNNI BLU
I see the resemblance.
MORGAN
👀
[SUNNI grabs a bottle of vodka from the cabinet; MORGAN looks at the clock. It is predictably 7:48 AM.]
SUNNI BLU
Tell him stop trespassing.
MORGAN
What? He’s not trespassing, he’s on the sidewalk.
SUNNI BLU
Stretching 8 feet in any direction is considered trespassing—
That includes vertically.
MORGAN
What! No it doesn't! No it’s not!
SUNNI BLU
That’s California law, that’s what they’re designating it. I have friends in the Senate, you know.
MORGAN
Are you serious?
SUNNI BLU
Never mind, I’ll tell him. I need the paper anyway.
SUNNI heads towards the door.
MORGAN
Since when do you read the— Sunni, wait—
Since when do you read the paper?!
SUNNI BLU
I don’t I just enjoy throwing it.
MORGAN
No, don’t—
[SUNNI has already catapulted a dummy loaded LA Times through the air at astonishingly high speed— although it’s just a rolled newspaper, CONAN happens to be running at a remarkably high speed with his extended gate on a STEEP DOWNHILL GRADE;
The trajectory of the impact from the newspaper hitting him in the face, quite squarely between the eyes forces him to loose hit footing completely, propel forward, and ROLL down the remainder of the street, nearly flipping over entirely into a summersault cartwheel of sorts, rolling uncontrollably over the pristine asphalt.
CONAN
OOF.

EXCERPT:
THE CHRONICLES OF WTF, Season 1, Episode 2 titled ‘3 Man War’
CONAN (V.O.) CONAN O’BRIEN is an IMMORTAL CITIZEN, tasked with the arduous duties of landscaping the parallels and paradoxes in TIME. Every day I live a little longer…
In a vintage mirror, He examines the heavy bags under his eyes, his pale, white skin, cakes with freckles and soon, with makeup— the picturesque Californian day shines ever brightly, even golden under the plumes of perfect white clouds floating, or even dancing effortlessly across the clear blue sky— though there’s something looming— always looming— over him personally.
Director’s note; It might be worth it to find a full length mirror that Conan is actually just a little taller than, so that he has to slouch to look into it. It should be actual vintage, the type that swivels and is perhaps ovular, and should be painted a pale yellow.
JAMES V.O. This is my room.
INT. 30 ROCKEFELLER PLAZA. STUDIO 6B. DAY
A LARGE, enthusiastic crowd—the AUDIENCE lifts to their feet, and cheers, applauding— the HOST takes his mark on what appears to be a GOLDEN FOUR LEAF CLOVER.
JAMES V.O. (CONT’D) These are my toys.
The whimsy of GAMES being played flash by in the foreground; a troupe of DANCERS take the the stage— the AUDIENCE cheers and laughs.
JAMES V.O. (CONT’D) My name is James…
Suddenly, the studio lights turn OFF;
JAMES V.O. (CONT’D) –But people forget that.
A faint echo of STEVE HIGGINS announces the HOST as “Jimmy Fallon!”; the applause and laughter fades out with the clamp of the lights.
…Now full black and white, the stage is empty, the seats, a striking red, now monochromatic and abandoned. The studio is empty. The room is silent. But JAMES mind is rushed with thoughts.
INT, BACKSTAGE, DRESSING ROOM
JAMES (JIMMY FALLON) begins to take his TIE off in the mirror, then changes his mind— he tightens it instead, still looking at the mirror into his own dark eyes. Then, a voice approaches from behind him, standing in the doorway.
CC He ties his own tie!
He turns around and pivots on a dime, straightening his back.
CC is a woman in her mid thirties, but presents herself much more maturely.
CC (CONT’D) Surprised to see me?
JAMES I do a lot of things myself, actually.
CC No arguments there.
An unspoken tension, perhaps, deep resentment or disdain for one another sits heavily in the small space between them.
A long pause; CC seems almost blank under the darkness of her SUNGLASSES, however wreaking dominance— this almost seems to shrink the long and tall host into the uncertainty of a small child. Still, he holds his ground.
JAMES Why are you doing this?
CC —are you afraid?
JAMES I was always afraid. Now I’m petrified.
CC feigns a small smile, if not a smirk of all expressions chosen for the worst of moments.
CC Gorgeous. I’ll be seeing you.
Without even such a turning to walk away the woman seems to have vanished, but still the HOST calls down the hallway as if phone after her.
JAMES It’s a wonder you’ll be seeing anything under those sunglasses!
CC’s voice from the opposite side of the hallway, if not seemingly somewhat above him answers to call back.
CC Call your friends.
JAMES is disgruntled, and now the woman, vanished, if not having left a heavy air of some sort of impending call to action. He sighs, and a dog approaches from behind him as he stands in the doorway— from inside the dressing room, but also apparently out of nowhere.
JAMES Bongo.
He leans down to pet the seemingly familiar beast.
JAMES (CONT’D) What are you doing out of your coffin?
Then, an unknown voice that seems to come itself in ghostly shackles with the rumblings of time in the midsts of the now silent room, the buzzing florexent lights buzzing above with only just a glimmer of light, but just the slightest comfort of mystery.
VOICE (unseen) It’s a ghost dog— nothing says he ought to be confined to a wooden box.
Now JAMES seems worried, the dog unbothered— he straightens out from hunching over the happy creature and squares himself to face the inside of the room. A luminescent and mystifying creature stands before him, still yet unseen.
VOICE Hello, Jimmy.
The silver lined glow of a supernatural pale white and neon blue brings just the slightest hint of fear into JAMES’ dark brown eyes.
CUT TO BLACK.
The screen remains void of light for a beat. Slowly, the letter W fades in, centered on the screen. A beat later, T fades in beside it. A final beat later, F fades in.
W — T — F
The remaining letters then manifest, prefixing the initialism in a single motion to complete the full title:

You’re right, this is all you
This, your alter,
This Atreyu,
They’ll betray you, betrate you and then make you
Spray, too
Go ahead and give me ten seconds,
Forget to bring dinner l? This is indentured servitude,
Don’t you get an attitude with me,
Just some me gratitude
You have the baddest ass,
But in the baddest mood,
I’m mad at you
It does even matter dude
I want to pitter-patter you;
Rain
Pitty Pat,
So you remember that
Pretty pat,
Picking up her hat
From the laundry mat,
Wear a mask
But I forgot to ask,
What kind of hound is that,
Basset,
Angela
This is not Los Angeles,
There’s a lot of angles here,
There’s a lot of managers,
Passengers, passin blunts
I was gonna ask you out to lunch,
But yo, you kind of suck
Once you get a lick or two:
Let me get a pic or two
She didn’t even look at you,
Maybe it’s your longitude or lattifltude
But he’s getting better at it
He’s really getting better at it;
What is west in
Don’t forget to hold you chest in
Forget to hold your questions for later l,
Go ahead and ask them
Blurt them out
Don’t put out your cigarette,
Not yet
You got regrets
But don’t express them
But he’s getting better at it
He’s really getting better at it;
He be’s the king from that sexual repression
And aggression and depression
And then shit you can’t express
When you get sick [isjxe] the television
Are you listening
Or are you really in your head again
I said again
I didn’t mean to see you in the medicine
But this is what the red is in
Regression
Just another lesson
Take it from the best,
And don’t forget to put the check in
The bank
I got the chicken sitting in a tub of butter
So come on, you motherfucker
Do you want a bucket of this?
—
Interception,
It’s still corruption
I went to brunch with
A bunch of numb nuts,
It isn’t nothing
I’ve had enough, man
Lorne said I can do better
But I didn’t get a jew,
Better than
I got a new number,
New husband
I went donuts on the chromas
Those other girls be doing bottle service, got diplomas
Only fans, and do Pilates
That is not me
I’m a lost cause,
But this is not a comic strip
It’s just another trip,
A chicken strip
Remember when I said that shit about the recipe!
Well guess what
It gets done in just fucking second l,
If you really want to test it
There’s a pressure sensor
Aghz. Yes. I didn’t think I was gonna be able to get that line. What did you get yourself into?
It’s clear by this image your miserable
The school ain’t got a principal,
The book was written on a principal
And if your open to the crypt
The shit will open up and
Kill you all
To solve a riddle and a ritual
Now that’s what I call killing two birds with one stone
Just leave me a lone,
Before I give you all a boner;
In my heart I’m still a stoner
In my art I’m still a goner,
Really I was born here
But that’s another problem
This motherfucking show ain’t gonna solve em
This mother fucker got a lot of balls huh
This mother fucker turned into a baller,
I just been getting smaller
I woke up in a stall in a mall,offa shots with Kanye
I don’t even want play
I don’t take a lot; pray,
I’m in the parking lot, hah
I bought myself a cobra,
I been on a corvette,
Running out of storage,
Call me Goldilocks,
Cause all I want is porridge,
I been straight shook up since north ridge,
I’m morbid,
They put me in the torture
Chamber
Dor the profit
I’m probably gonna die tho;
I’m probably gonna die tho l
I’m probably gonna die tho,
I finally made my mind up
I’m not an alcoholic,
But my moms and
My pops was;
I went through polarity shifts
Since I been in this shit
I don’t Tik tok or twitch,
Do look like a kid to you.
Shit.
Let me open up the fridge for you;
I am Sarah Silverman,
I guess this is the interview
He probably isn’t into you
For several different purposes
But this is one of them,
You’re in the middle of a centrifugal refuge
I probably shouldn’t let you,
But,
Come and meet my nephew,
Cause I feel like he would get you—
Just a little bit of religion
If you step inside my kitchen
Then you better pay attention to the scripture,
I ripped uou, a rapture and captured a caption,
A captain, a practice, a rapture
Wild in cause I’m young, kid cudi.
The irony is that CC is amofafs the oldest of souls.
I’m parked outside the Apple Store,
Dressed like a progressive whore,
I stopped to write some lore,
But don’t remember what I came for;
I was in the same four corners of the world once
I probably was your girl once
But in this time
It’s Kirsten *Dunces*,
However you spell it
Still a dunce or something
Stuck inroads a corvette
On the surface, it’s a deck ze
But I’m surfing more
So splurging on insurance
Hahaha.
I’m up under the plug
I put the stuff under the rug and then I gave my love a hug
Cause I knew I would never see the best of him
I wonder what would happen if the glove fit;
Perhaps the earth would suddenly turn perfect
And the dirt out back where dirt is
I got the rumble of the subway under my feet
I got the children or the whole world under my teet
I got a number in my notebook that I’m trying to meet
I’m stuck on repeat, cause I eat the teeth of the week
My knot’s ruthless;
I showed you rubies but I didn’t mean to do this
So don’t approach if you don’t wear those broaches,
I used to live with roaches,
And now I got teams of the people looking for me
Asking where the coach is
Not a purse
I put a problem in reverse and
Made his humor even worse
Heard a rumor he divorced
But didn’t hear you heard it first from me,
I made a gallery of secrets,
But subliminally leaked it
I don’t own not a one Prada
I got a lot of problems,
But I ain’t get a therapist to talk about em
Bout to put a rock inside a fountain and then light it up
I write it up and hide a book inside of dm
I'm in the center of a circle of snakes;
The only mistake I seem to make
Is being sacred
They
Tried me set me up with butter faces and balloons l
But paid attention to the tunes
That I was writing dude since citing Blu
I had to spend a night or two inside of you
True or false.
False.
Where the fuck’s the motherfucking sauce?
I want some pasta;
I’m on another lost cause
Probably finna boss,
Cause I been on one
Bout to shop at Ross
I’m on the west coast
Where the fuck’s my French toast
Ordered up a trauma
One a billion off a crop duster,
Conspiracy,
You probably can’t hear this
You keep on getting near to me
But I go ear to ear with them
Jimmy crack corn
And also
Pornography
Hahas again.
Never forget
I’m interested in the architecture.
It almost never what’s inside
This morning I think I died,
Just knowing I would sit in this line
In mu own mind,
Wasting my whole time
Inside a notebook
Feeling like I’m lying to myself,
To say that I’ve been healthy,
More like happier than ever;
Which I’ve realized, isn’t even happy at all
I’m in a fight over motorcycles for Christ sakes
This just isn’t right ey,
I can’t wait to Friday
Cause I got a
Craving for Satan.
I may forget my ibuprofen aspirin
Every now and then
But we were never friends, and it depends what kind of world your in on whether this will make a difference
Or just begin another lesson,
This is part of the regression,
I was bound to get in a wreck
Or in a fender bender
At one point or another
The dirty motherfucker cut me off
And didn’t have his blinker on
And wreaked of vodka
Everytime he speaks to me
Or he responds
He’s really on some other shit
I think a fucking astronaut or something
Cause I was dreaming
Or screaming for your consciousness
I’m optionless and watching reruns of Oprah
Stuck inside this opera house like hostages
Cause I’m a fucking moron,
Colin,
Pull the plug
I’m Jost a Scarlet
Joe- Hanson, as Tom is.
