These lyrics are wrong. It's "I feel STONED and alone like a heretic."

Childish Gambino – Silk Pillow Lyrics 8 years ago
[Verse 1: Beck]
Centrifugal force pulling me off-course, in a horse race
Changing horses midstream, fourteenth place
On videotape surveillance playback
Saw you lose face, disgraced, God forbid you
Fall off of the face of the Earth with chase
The black hole of what you thought it was worth today
“Don’t shoot the piano player” I heard them say
It was your fault, centrifugal force, you got caught
Convict monotonous, a verdict thoughtless
As you read it out loud, at least I was being relatively honest
Standing in your office trying to speak to some anacondas
Eking solace from the sawdust
While your doppleganger stands topless
No one notices, they got their own dramas
Drama-rama’s melodramas
You draw commas on the eyes of madonnas
And wonder why you can’t turn traumas into nirvanas

[Verse 2: Childish Gambino]
Don’t mess your head up, still run with these young bucks
Still runnin’ on jet fuel, still pimpin’ on what-what
What was I thinkin’? I wasn’t
What am I drinkin’? I’m buzzin’
Speakin’ of weekends I used to fuck with your cousin
I used to rap about nothin’, now I rap about nothin’
But that nothin’ was somethin’ that ain’t nobody was bumpin’
See I still got it boo-boo, just a dab'll do you
Wonders if you don’t wanna be under some gross dude
But most girls will do it just for a corner seat at Nobu
I bet your daughter’s perfect, he say it like he know me
My daughter isn’t living yet, Atwater Village idiot
Their flow’s dumb, but that royalty’s the silliest
Now

[Verse 3: Childish Gambino]
Someone tell these niggas I ain’t fuckin’ ’round
Fly them all to Vegas man we hold it down
Livin’ for the present, nigga we fuck futures
Sippin’ on some whiskey, these bitches drinkin’ Kombucha
Recession means more oppression, these niggas will shoot ya
Rio de Janeiro, these bitches lookin’ like Xuxa
Talk with anacondas, at least I’m bein’ honest
I’m tryin’ to turn these Keke Palmers into baby mamas
Baby mama, I’m your baby, mama
Man, let your boy drown, they ain’t save me, momma
They ain’t save me momma
They ain’t save me momma
Silk pillow for that new weave
Silk pillow for that new weave

Silversun Pickups – Little Lover's So Polite Lyrics 15 years ago
It seems to me that this song is about sex. It's about a guy whose frustrated with the girl he's sleeping with because she's too shy about sex.

so much for the light show
(He's given up on getting off with her)
pissing on while pissing off
sucking in a smokescreen
selling of a loose knit dream
(She's kind of a tease and it's screwing with his head and he's beginning to realize he's not going to get what he wants)

folding up the skyline
(Closing the curtains)
agreeing on a steep decline
(Laying down on the bed)
cant control this airplane
(Pretty sure "airplane" is a euphemism here. He's saying he's getting too excited)
being caught is just the same
headed for a lowlife
little lover's so polite
waking up the core needs
with smelling salts and faulty means
(He's saying she gets him excited and wakes up his "core needs" by acting very sexual, but it's really just a "smokescreen." "Being caught is just the same" means that she suddenly gets turned off, just like if someone had walked in on them. Pretty sure "headed for a lowlife" is another euphemism...)

did the bones collide
who let the bones collide
why did the bones collide
(This part sounds sarcastic to me. Like he's annoyed with her for saying he's going too fast when he doesn't think so)

(nikki: it's always the same way for me
ending in the same way.)
(This could either be her saying that it always ends with her being disappointed, or just a reiteration of what he is saying)

so much for the showdown
keeping up while keeping off
choking on the cold feet
(Things come to a stop because she gets "cold feet")
rolling up the plastic sleeves
(Condom)
can't control the slow ride
(Once again, he gets too excited)
little lover's so polite
turning off the low light
(She's so shy she doesn't want the lights on)
tell me did the bones collide
the bones collide
the bones collide
little lover�s so polite
so polite
so polite
turning off the low light

(nikki: it's always the same way for me
blue turns soft with time
broke remains, an everyday disguise
ending in the same way. . .the same way)

tell me did the bones collide
the bones collide
the bones collide
little lover�s so polite
so polite
so polite

The rest is pretty self explanatory.

That's my take on it. I could be totally wrong. Maybe I just have a dirty mind.
