Man Named Truth

 Don't ever buy nothing from a man named Truth
 Pain was hunting me down, but I gave him the slip
 I left the city through a tunnel and I headed for the sticks
 With oregano oil and a morphine drip
 Pain was hunting me down, but I gave him the slip
 And I fell in love with identical twins
 They'd lived 34 summers between the two of them
 I gave one my ego, gave one my id
 Yeah, I gotta get back to my pretty little twins
 Don't ever buy nothing from a man named Truth
 Don't ever buy nothing from a man named Truth
 I'll tell you right now that it ain't no use
 Don't ever buy nothing from a man named Truth
 I was lost for a year in those almond trees
 The sun was rising in the South and setting in the East
 I was half awake, I was half asleep
 I thought I would never get out of those almond trees
 So don't think too slow in the syrupy sun
 You'll get buried alive when the caterpillar come
 Tapping your time on a congo drum
 Don't think too slow in the syrupy sun
 M!

 I met a black skinned man with an ice cream grin
 And a blond Afghan with that heroin
 We moved to the mountains where the highway ends
 And I got myself that ice cream grin
 So don't search too long for that Aztec gold
 Like old Cortez, gonna lose your soul
 Turn an honest man into Diablo
 Don't trade your soul for no Aztec gold
 And never buy nothing from a man named Truth
 Never buy nothing from a man named Truth
 Look in my eyes and you see the proof
 Don't ever buy nothing from a man named Truth
 Don't ever buy nothing from a man named Truth
 Don't ever buy nothing from a man named Truth
 Don't ever buy nothing from a man named Truth
