about

"Des Esseintes now watched the tortoise squatting in a corner of the dining room, shining in the shadow.

He was perfectly happy. His eyes gleamed with pleasure at the resplendencies of the flaming corrollae against the gold background. Then, he grew hungry — a thing that rarely if ever happened to him — and dipped his toast, spread with a special butter, in a cup of tea, a flawless blend of Siafayoune, Moyoutann and Khansky — yellow teas which had come from China to Russia by special caravans.

This liquid perfume he drank in those Chinese porcelains called egg-shell, so light and diaphanous they are. And, as an accompaniment to these adorable cups, he used a service of solid silver, slightly gilded; the silver showed faintly under the fatigued layer of gold, which gave it an aged, quite exhausted and moribund tint."

-J.M. Huysmans

lyrics

LYRICS:



I'm in that salmon pink hammock
My Cabernet tannic
Heckler in my hand tan ceramic
Declan McManus
Spanish ham, canisters of anise
Jet to Venice
Get Greenwich-level lettuce
Beveled edge, Cleverley
Redzepi-level chef, never dress tepidly
Red Stetson
Double-breasted Ed Sexton
Ten tentacles and twin Tecs
Consider them shits akin to Windex:
A quick fix; and I'm finna win next
When I flex, I'm a little bit morbid
I just left the jewelry store with a tortoise
My slacks are crafted out of Styracosaurus
The diamond on the tie tack is orange
A more ingenious scene setter than your set's seen yet
...Whatever bread it begets.

Okay, you know the difference in totem pole distance?
My whip came equipped with a Poggenpohl kitchen
My lips slicker than linseed
Ellipses
I'll leave your lid lifted, then I dip to Poughkeepsie
I'm Pimp C mixed with Kim Peek, capisce?
I'm a beast, a hedonist in need of a niche
And Faberge made the cane, so, you see, it's antique
Best believe when the Reefer Man speaks
Peace
