[hometext] => This one's for the Soul Speakers!!
[bodytext] => We pay high fines to put ourselves in the lime light stayin up late at night, to find the right rhyme so that surely when we hit the stage, our lines will shine Sing of love and warn of danger to complete strangers sometimes Heck, if we wanted, we'd recite over the phone line so disgusted or lusty we pine for our own time with a promise to write, we lean precariously towards fantasizing old wounds break, and our hearts fake what we once felt before We warn ouselves not to fall through when we open that door We preach of past and future, calling out to distant shores We rattle our own cages so that the tourists will hear us roar Hear us raging at the present, or bristling at crimes of yore Before we sleep, we think at least one lyric make up names like Soul Speakers so newbies will feel our spirit We say we'll shake ya up, like the thunder when ya hear it Put out tickets for ya cash, so you'll know that we're endearing Make ya pay while we refresh ouselves like a speaking dose of spearmint You hear that? These people are crazy! And that's why I love 'em.
