Bourne in the studio whilst conjuring up rhythms on the machines of affirmation despite their subjective derision by the lemmings. A colorful exercise in self awareness!

Lyrics
MOVE SLICK David John Clare
Got to think like a cat, use versatility
To survive in the jungle, physical and spiritually
Secret dreams pine from my own dark vanity
Not enough of them now to convince psychology
Past events suffer all too many misery
May connect to the complex world out of decency
Her combination of love & emotion cunningly
A cheap night of lust is a real big oddity
You gotta move slick, move slick, move slick
You gotta move quick, move quick, move quick
You gotta move slick, move slick, move slick
You gotta move quick, move quick, move quick
Always throwing things at the plastic world of reality
Time loves with anger in heat quite sensually
Every deadly sin steals like a single burglary
Low hanging fruit is the ideal atrocity
Walk up a tree to find high-ranking quality
Out smart your way as far as you can see
When the road is icy you know it's slippery
No matter what the case, me have to reach my destiny
You gotta move slick, move slick, move slick
You gotta move quick, move quick, move quick
You gotta move slick, move slick, move slick
You gotta move quick, move quick, move quick
Be Smart like a Japan, Dress like Italian
Tough like a Russian, Keep low like an Aussie man
Soulful as an African, Free like American
Crafty like Canadian, Pray like the Mexican
Witty as a British man, Kiss like the French man
Kick like China man, Reggae like Jamaican
Sting like the Scorpion, Cool as Bohemian
International Rasta man Move Slick if you can...
