[Verse 1] I'm M.C. Escher and I'm here to say Goin' up the stairs is like goin' down every day Penrose in my pocket, paradox in my pen Ask me where it ends, I'll say ask me again I tessellate lizards into oscillating fish Every empty space is a shape you didn't wish Positive, negative, figure and ground The thing you don't see is the thing I drew around [Verse 2] Belvedere balcony, columns all wrong Front is the back where they don't belong Prisoner in the basement holding up the roof Look again slowly, that's your only proof Metamorphosis, watch the checkerboard bloom Squares grow legs and they crawl across the room Bees become boats become towns become bees Nothin' ever changes, everything agrees [Hook] No exit, no entry, no up, no down Welcome to the town where the stairs go 'round Ascendin', descendin', forever the same M.C. the method, Escher's the name [Verse 3] Relativity, three gravities in play One man's ceiling is another man's day He climbs the same staircase her hands descend We share a wall but we'll never share an end Convex, concave, a hand that draws a hand Sphere in the mirror where my whole self stands Signature curling in the bottom of the glass Even my reflection's got its own looking past [Hook] No exit, no entry, no up, no down Welcome to the town where the stairs go 'round Ascendin', descendin', forever the same M.C. the method, Escher's the name [Outro] Started at the top... still ain't hit the ground... Started at the top... still ain't hit the ground...
