“R/U Receiving Me?”

I bet U bet I say this to all the girls…
And I do,
But I mean it when I say it to u.
What’s it like on the other side of the curtain?
That’s something I’ll never know for certain:
What it is to be at a show
At The Soular System in the front row
But, u are wherever u perceive u are
Are u believing me?
Are u receiving me?
Alien means foreign and we’re foreign to your minds
‘Cause we think in fast forward, we don’t pause and rewind
And we find this means we don’t get left behind
When it comes time to redefine what’s at the top of our spines
When we evolve we resolve to dissolve our tails
Get up out the water an’ lose the scales
Walkin’ upright was outta sight, but now everybody be
Talkin’ uptight an’ just wanna fight
But, u are whatever u perceive u are
Are u receiving me?
Do u believe in me?
No1 ever considers the fact
The definition of love is never exact
What might be “total love” to u
May be a slight degree of “like” to me
And how do u know when u blow a kiss whether u hit or miss?
I bet u bet I say that to all the girls…
Oh, and I do,
But I mean it when I say it to u.
