handlebars

i can ride my bike with no handlebars. 
look at me, hands in the air like it's good to be alive and i'm a famous rapper even when the paths are all crookedy.
i can show you how to do-si-do, i can show you how to scratch a record, i can take apart the remote control and i can almost put it back together. 
i can tie a knot in a cherry stem, i can tell you about Leif Ericson. i know all the words to 'De Colores' and 'I'm proud to be an American.
Me and my friend saw a platypus. me and my friend made a comic book and guess how long it took. i can do anything that i want, cause look  
I can keep the rhythm with no metronome and i can see your face on the telephone.
Look at me, just called to say that it's good to be alive in such a small world. i'm all curled up with a book to read. I can make money, open up a thrift store. i can make a living off a magazine. i can design an engine 64 miles to a gallon of gasoline. i can make new antibiotics. i can make computers  survive aquatic conditions. i know how to run a business and i can make you wanna buy a product. movers, shakers and producers, me and my friend understand the future. i see the strings that control the system and i can do anything with no assistance. cause i can lead a nation with a microphone, and i can split the atom of the molecule. 
look at me driving and i won't stop. and it feels so good to be alive on the top. my reach is global, my tower is secure, my cause is noble, my power is pure. i can hand out a million vaccinations, or let 'em all die in exasperation, have 'em all healed of their lacerations, have 'm all killed by assassination. i can make anybody go to prison just because i don't like them. and i can do anything with no permission, i have it all under my command. because i can guide a missile by satellite. and i can hit a target through a telescope. and i can end the planet in  a holocaust!

i can ride my bike with no handlebars, no handlebars...
