Nur Ein IV - Silver Tongue

Post by bambamoozle »

Silver Tongue
by John Kloberdanz
Voices by John Kloberdanz and the Kloberdanz Family
With the assistance of The Electric Company

Parrot: "Who is it?"
Plumber: "It's the plumber, I've come to fix the sink."

John: I came home like any other day
Nothing seemed different from the same
But there was a note with a bag of my clothes
It said, "We decided you're to blame"

I thought that things were fine around the house
A lovely wife and two wonderful kids
I asked my oldest son what was wrong
Jack, can you tell me what I did?

Jack: We don't need you anymore
Since the plumber knocked on the door
He''ll be a better dad than you ever might
He'll fix the toilet and clean the pipes

John: His silver tongue like stainless steel
He stole my family
Jack, my boy, give me another chance
Come over here and talk to me

Jack: I can't give you another chance
Our names' no longer Kloberdanz
You were O.K. for a while
But now the plumber makes Mom smile

John: He plunged his way right through my heart
Buying love with a new bathtub
His voice so smooth and his words so fine
They're all happy in their rub-a-dub

Family: We're three happy in the tub
Rub-a-dub, rub-a-dub
Mom's new dishwasher is great
Dad, you were second rate

(John cries)

Lady of the house: "Who is it?"
Parrot: "It's the plumber, he's come to fix the sink!"

Silver Tongue - Paco del Stinko f/ MC Sangwich

He's got a gift from the gods
Odin, Apollo and Zeus
Healing those that can't walk
When he brings them the juice
He'll leave you shining just like his name
Oh you're cured, but you'll never be the same

Silver Tongue - Will make you come
Silver Tongue - He ain't never done

So it's been a long time
Or maybe it's never
He'll put you back in the slime
He can pull your lever
He works his way from north to south
Releasing pain, he lets the demons out

Silver Tongue - Will make you come
Silver Tongue - He ain't never done

I'm like a Midas with a touch that's silver not gold
Bringing fire to the furnaces that run cold
You won't forget my name after we've been together
Feeling all the calm after all the stormy weather
My charm is smooth but my tongue is my weapon
Curing all your ills to send you right to the Heaven
You should feel lucky that I found you to give you my kiss
Lay back and feel the love as I send you to bliss

Now you've been told
Just what he does
He can't be bought or sold
He's doing what he loves
If you're fortunate enough to meet
Open up wide, and enjoy all the sweet

Silver Tongue - Will make you come
Silver Tongue - He ain't never done
Bringin' the stink since 2006.

Howl Down the Chimney feat. Krazee Jarmin

Silver Tongue... I am a target

I discovered early on I had a talent for persuading
A way with words that switch your neurons to receiving
I can talk you out of anything you own
Instant trust and you'll let me into your home
It's like hypnosis but there's no defense against it
Anything I want, I can get my hands on it
But I'm intelligent enough to know the score
Being greedy gets you caught coming back for more
So I keep a low profile
Keep my name out of the government's x-files
I only use my power just enough to get by
Enough scratch to sustain a simple lifestyle

I thought I was doing enough to keep myself out of the spotlight
But evidently my strategy wasn't airtight
Yesterday there was a dark sedan following me
Thought I was paranoid until they took a shot at me
Another inch and the bastards would've killed me
As it was, the bullet only grazed me

I arrived home shaken to find a cryptic message on my answering machine

Wir kennen deine Nummer, du kannst dich nicht verstecken
Wir haben Leute ueberall, wir werden dich entdecken
Und zu hacken brauchen wir dich nicht, wir wissen alles ueber dich
Dein Einkommen allmonatlich, du brauchst es nicht, wirst bald verrecken
Wir werden dich bestrafen, also geh besser nicht mehr schlafen
Halt dich wach und den Ball flach, keinen Krach, bleib unterm Dach
Denn Satellit und wir hoer'n mit, folgen dir auf Schritt und Tritt
Kapitulier doch und bleib steh'n, wir seh'n dich sowieso bald draufgeh'n

And I don't even speak German

It wasn't just a case of mistaken identity
I've got a silver tongue and it makes me a target
A shadowy organization is after me
I've got a silver tongue and it makes me a target

I've got to lay low for awhile
I'll find someplace safe
Figure out what to do next

Silver Tongue - Andrew Reist

You know that there
is nowhere left to run
Why is nobody there?

Everything's okay
Regardless of who you are
Or where you're coming from
You know that I'm gonna tell you anyways
Everything's okay
The smartest of fools we are
We make you wanna jump
Up and down
Or off of any place

You know it's fair
They don't care for anyone
Why is nobody there?

Everything's okay
Regardless of who you are
Or where you're coming from
You know that I'm gonna tell you anyways
Everything's okay
The smartest of fools we are
We make you wanna jump
Up and down
Or off of any place

We know your soul is freezing
Your lips are turning blue
Please come out from the trees and
We'll give you something new
You see there is no reason
Why you should hate us too
And though we know your treason
We keep on loving you

You know we're lost in a sea of faces
Why is nobody there?

Everything's okay
Regardless of who you are
Or where you're coming from
You know that I'm gonna tell you anyways
Everything's okay
The smartest of fools we are
We make you wanna jump
Up and down
Or off of any place
Off of any place

Silver tongue
by ross Durand
Featuring preformances by Sydney, Steve Durand, and Seamus

Well I’m tryin to sing and my guitar strings ring
But the words won’t come out right
I need a Cyrano De Bergereac to feed me the words
But stay just out of the light

So I got me a lantern and I’m searchin the world
Cause I’ve got to find the one
My words fall like lead so I’ve got to find
The one with the silver tongue

SO before to long is somethign over there
A shinin in the light
a silvery smile on a little girl
Could she be the one? She just might

KID:
I’m just a little kid I don’t know how to rap
But I like to go boom and snap and clap
SO I’m sorry man I can’t sing for you
But listen to this - this is what I can do
[Boom snap clap, Boom boom snap clap]

ME:
So kept movin along looking everywhere - for someone to save my day
When up a head a saw another little glimmer
“Can you sing for me?” I say

JAZZ GUY:
I don't have a silver tongue but I've got a silver horn
I've been making it sing since the day I was born
And I've got to admit my voice ain't my thing
On any given day I'd rather swing than sing
So I'm sorry man can't do your singin for you
But take a listen here cause this us what I can do


ME:
Well it had been a long search - I was about to give up
when I came across the man
out leaning on a light post hat tilted down
and toothpick in his hand

THE MAN WITH THE SILVER TONGUE:
Well ya found me - yeah I’m the right one
You can turn off the lantern cause I got a silver tongue
Whatever you got to say I can give you the words
But it’s the way that you say it that gets you heard
You got to flow
The words gotta roll off of your tongue
All the beauty’s in the way that it’s done
Ya gotta breathe - so they feel but don’t hear
Its not the words it’s delivery tha much is clear
I need a groove - a little boom snap clap
I need a bass and horn, man that’ll take you back
then I can give you the words - and though they may be bold
you won’t need need a silver tongue if you gotta heart of gold

ME:
So now I just play I got a grip on things
No silver tongue, just silver strings.

Silver Tongue
by Signboy, Feat. The Clyntessential

in the inner city there's a forgotten dusty lot
full of used cars and faded pennants
a fat man with a mustche and a cheap hat
gets red in the face and plays at menace
cuz the kid can't pay back the cash that he borrowed
he's got none today and he'll have none tomorrow
he's backed up in a corner, the man blocks the door and he's
got nothing left so he strings out a story

when push comes to shove we
all have silver tongues
coercive power in
words if not guns


I;m going to say whatever needs saying
I'm going to play whoever needs playing do what-
ever it takes to get Through one more day cuz'm Not above ducking
the haammer this way

in chinatown, just five blocks down
from the red gate with words about luck wrapped around
a frail seventy eight year old man
with spots on the top of his head and his hands
walks into a shop, stops and stares
he can't remember what he wanted to buy there
time ticks on, he comes to no conclusions
she's getting scared even though it's an illusion
her english isn't doing her any kind of credit
she wants him to leave but the man doesn't get it
she pulls out the only argument that never fails
now she got her point across but she can't afford the bail

we've seen it all a hundred thousand times
nobody waants to get caught withno spine
so we buullshit and embellish it and... yeah, you know

Silver Tongue
by WreckdoM

(Verse 1 vocals & lyrics by Geoff)

Well I wasn’t always so debonair,
I used to be a total slob.
I smelled like a bong, I lived with my mom,
And I did not have no job.
I was feelin’ low and outta blow,
I passed out on a stranger’s couch.
When I awoke, I was breathing smoke,
With flames belchin’ all around.
Well I was so shit scared I pissed my pants,
I was screaming through my tears.
And then from under came a voice of thunder,
Tellin’ me not to fear.
Then outta the fire stepped a handsome cat,
Silk suit and alligator shoes.
He said “I know your pain and I will show you the way,
Get with me and you will never lose.”
He said,

(Satan Rap vocals & lyrics by Moody)

Come on and ride with me,
To a place where you set your horses free
Give you fingertips of fire
That’ll fill all the shorties with wings of desire
Come on down to the club,
Where all the wine glasses are filled with love.
That’ll cause all the ladies to tingle,
Especially when they hear your pocket jingle.
You can buy your shorty a round
After a drink or two she’ll want to throw down
With the prince of puppy love
When I get behind you, coo like a dove

Satan, Satan, Satan

(Verse 2 vocals & lyrics by Geoff )

Well after that night everything was tight,
My entire life had changed.
I had a wad of cash, a ton of ass,
And everybody knew my name.
Well I was goin’ so fast I had a heart attack
I almost died right on the spot.
And I realized someday I’m gonna die,
And I started havin’ second thoughts.
Well the girls and the fame had been an awesome game,
But I was still empty inside,
And as God as my witness, I prayed for forgiveness,
And for him to show me the light,
And down from the heavens stepped the son of God,
Right there before my eyes.
He said “Look at me! I’m forever free,
In a land called Paradise!”
He said

(Jesus Rap vocals by The Milkman J-Flo, lyrics by Geoff)

This is Jesus, yo, they call me J-Flo
So you sold your soul and that’s a no go.
Now you come to me with a bended knee,
But I turn my back to you eternally.
You see your dead to me, your Satan’s bitch.
Wouldn’t lend you a hand if you was in a ditch.
And when Judgment comes, I’m sayin’ “Oh Well”
Be laughin’ wit my homies while you burn in hell

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
