[Verse 1]
From this position
I will relax
From this position
I can see the whole place
[Verse 2]
From this position
Oh, oh, just relax
From this, my position
I make some stand
I make my peace with the man
[Verse 3]
And it goes pow, pow, pow, pow, pow
Pow, pow, pow, pow
It goes pow, pow, pow, pow, pow
Pow, pow, pow, pow
[Verse 4]
From this position
I can see both of them
From this position
I totally get how the decision was reached
[Verse 5]
From this position
I can say, serious, or cop-out, or hard to define
From this position
From this position
It's, uh, kinda like eating myself to death
[Verse 6]
With you on the outside
And me on the inside
There's advantages to both
Advantages to both
[Verse 7]
And me being uptight
And you being alright
There's advantages to each
Advantages, advantages
[Verse 8]
From this perspective
From this position
I have a good grip on both of them
Because I have stayed home
And I've learned a little more about my neighborhood
Which is important
You know, there's a lot of good places to eat
[Verse 9]
And so it's pow, pow, pow, pow, pow
Pow, pow, pow, pow
Pow, pow, pow, pow, pow
Pow, pow, pow, pow
[Verse 10]
And so it's pow, pow, pow, pow, pow
Pow, pow, pow, pow
It goes pow, pow, pow, pow, pow
Pow, pow, pow, pow
[Verse 11]
With you on the keystroke
And me in the gang blank
There's advantages to both
Advantages to both
[Verse 12]
And you have been alright
And I have been filmed being ridiculous
Oh, eat it, Michael Musto
You're no Bruce Valance
[Verse 13]
Now I have been untied
And you are all cross-eyed
There's advantages to each
Advantages to each
[Verse 14]
And I'm coming back, coming back, coming back
Until there's nothing left in the well
Is that what they call it, the well?
[Verse 15]
I'm paralyzed and looking through you
But if nothing's right, we try anyway
As we compromised, aggregate person
I'm amazed at my decision to play
[Verse 16]
On this occasion, there are a couple of things
That we know that we pulled from Fact Magazine
One, the king wears a king hat and lives in a king house
Two, your time will come, but tonight is our night
So you should give us all of your drugs
Three, we have a black president
And you do not, so shut up
'Cause you don't know shit about where I'm from
That you didn't get from TV
[Verse 17]
So while times have been tough
And times have been tough
You have been put down
Washed up, erased out
But honestly, and be honest with yourself
How much time do you waste?
How much time do you blow every day?
[Verse 18]
I just pow, pow, pow, pow, pow
Pow, pow, pow, pow
Oh, pow, pow, pow, pow, pow
Pow, pow, pow, pow
[Verse 19]
So pow, pow, pow, pow, pow
Pow, pow, pow, pow
Pow, pow, pow, pow, pow
Pow, pow, pow, pow
The return of the police
[Verse 20]
The return of the police
[Verse 21]
With you on the inside
And me on the outside
There's advantages to both
Advantages to both
[Verse 22]
Me being wired
And you being tired
There's advantages to each
Advantages, advantages
[Verse 23]
From this position
I feel an affinity for both of them
Which is confusing
But honestly, I should be careful
Because otherwise I'm being
I'm being, you know, what's it called?
Oh, fuck it
[Verse 24]
Reclining, I'm getting used to it
Like kissing under a bridge
It's an entirely new
Discovery, discovery, discovery, discovery
Discovery, discovery, discovery, discovery
[Verse 25]
And then a couple of weeks at home
And then a couple of weeks away
And then home and away again
To use up your desire for
Discovery, discovery, discovery, discovery
Discovery, discovery, discovery
[Verse 26]
For an instant, you could have pushed through
But it's a plagiarized regret anyway
But what you want for now
Is someone to feel you
And it's a thing you like
Is planning to stay
[Verse 27]
And all this light
It's so bright
It's so bright
It's so bright
[Verse 28]
The return of the police
