lyrics

It’s October ninth
And I’m working at the go-kart track
The blue man gets in the go kart
And he looks up at the north star
A double breasted suit
And some tight shorts
They're so tight
They cut off the circulation to his legs
He says
You look just like a Duane Reade
I see what you're made of
And I’ll take just what I need
He says
I'm gonna fill you up with wine stones
I’ve taken samples of your bones
A thousand miles a way from your home

Until your blood turns tangy lemon
Blood turns sweet like a lemon
Whole world looms like a lemon
Blue earth looms like a lemon
Even my step brother emits
Blood turns tangy like a lemon
Blood turns sweet like a lemon
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue
Blood turns tangy lemon
Blood turns sweet like a lemon
Blood turns yellow like a lemon
Even my step brother emits
Blood turns tangy like a lemon
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a berry
I just wanna know what he had to say
Because every single second seems so far away
I just wanna know what he had to say
Because every single second seems so far away
You want
Me to
Give it
Up
What I
Know is
Not enough
Sitting
Watching
My face
Change
I can
Feel my
Cells arrange

Until your blood turns tangy lemon
Blood turns sweet like a lemon
Whole world looms like a lemon
Blue earth looms like a lemon
Even my step brother emits
Blood turns tangy like a lemon
Blood turns sweet like a lemon
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue
Blood turns tangy lemon
Blood turns sweet like a lemon
Blood turns yellow like a lemon
Even my step brother emits
Blood turns tangy like a lemon
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a berry
Blood turns blue like a

It’s October 10th I quit my job at the go kart track
In the parking lot
I say I’m never going back

This one also took me a while to get into. It strikes me as less HC than Untitled and less poppy than Ultrapop (stupid I know). Let's call this the No Wave record. Its musical (and amusical) density is matching the persistent sound in my head right now. barnaby nygren
