The Middle Finger of the Family (Oatmeal/NYC)

Oats
They said I should've played ball with such genetic expression
I say I became tall to try and get some attention
Middle child of 5, the silent type, nightshifts at 7-11
The person everyone would notice but, never would mention
The elephant in the settlement - ignore him. Don't talk, stare!
walk around without acknowledgment, it's just like he's not there!
I begged for the crosshairs, craved its allegiance
As long as I'm in someone's sight then they can take it or leave it
Faceless debris, mom and dad's six foot eight little secret
Standing tall...in the shadow of my brothers' latest achievements
Steve's a Yalie, a genius, CIA bound
Will's the starting running back at USC, set to break out
Mark's at Johns Hopkins, Scott is gonna take the same route
Me? I'll gladly take 5 bucks to leave your driveway plowed
Left home with my face down, the prodigal scar
Of the family, cuz "av-erage is not what we are"
That's what they told me as I walked away, unlocking the car
Sent off with a salute of fumed exhaust in the yard
I never got very far from what I tried to escape
No amount of gas could drive enough miles away

....THE FABRIC OF SPACE TIME WARPS, CREATING A SIMILAR, BUT ALTERNATE UNIVERSE:

NYC
Fuck an AND1 I fight through fouls and slam dunk
West Fourth New York courts - these boys'll MAN up
Tanned up, metropolis pimp killin swan songs
Dimes swarm to my bronze dong hit it twice and I'm long gone
Blood lineage? Fuckin homogenous human grass blades
Rum diligence - flippin birds up til my last day
Let suburbian sloth silhouettes simmer in fantasy
Emaciated wraith: ASSIMILATE - mental pillars of battery
Father please forgi...siiike, I'm fierce ballin for leisure
Handles sick, jump-shot slick, the "Taller Professor"
Though one egregious elitist defeatist...STILL paves the way
His temper's mine til I cross-over and fade away.
Blood red. White/blue, such an amazing grace...
Color me fucked. Torn up by several shades of grey
Haze and yay, pills pushin the pain away
Devil worship sex sacrifice - the layman prays
Corporate cocksuck coupon vacation - it's plain as day
They see azure skies, toes ensconced, sands beige in play
Escaped the family fist, sitting here drinking miller in my can
My soul rose - revealing the middle finger of the fam
