lyrics

i wandered in the wilderness for oh so many years
searching for a lover, but all i got were tears
apologize to the foam, discrimination on the phone
invert electrocution for the pervert elocution
fancy parameters abundance of stars
end-zone cheers spurn the causal reluctance
interior plush, blinking blinkers on my fingers
i can heal your emotional pain

i am a mashed potato, a benevolent tornado
eat me and get swept up, hold on to your halo
ever so lazy, your insults do not faze me
so climb into the cockpit and let yourself go

backlog mans the eccentric
lying conjecture recounts the future
rescued from beneath the ravaged fort
the temperature drops in the witches' court
inkblots await 'neath asian wood
eat your vegetables cause they taste really goooood

garble the pronunciation think about yourself
and what you could be if you tried
cousins coming out of the woodwork
lecture me but don't you think too hard
the protocol designed along parallel lines
to fascinate absurdity
can you speak a little louder it's hard to hear my dear
am i making it clear that i want you near and i have some fear
cause i'm kind of weird and i need to be sheared like a sheep

you hear me peep, i drive a jeep, i like to leap and go meep meep
to the faithful lesson-mongers
who inhabit the dark recesses of academia
forthwith i shall balance economics
and ride the coattails til night begs to differ
feel my romance purr, notable as a peripheral slur
distract yourself from the malicious ram
my intentions are pure like the son of man
you're much too accustomed to attentive deference
take heed to my warning and properly site the reference
concentrate on breath, the rhythm and the heft
the cold thoughtless judgments of which i am bereft
assemble the flock of battle ducks
relish in the finding of added fucks
giving away the excess stuff
sick with worry cause we care too much
humanity is really cool
i'd like to save it but alas i am a fool

afforded by the endless asphalt parody
courted by the surly throngs of hilarity
recalcitrant to the throne, humiliated and alone
acceptance and truth, no belief without proof
party up and disco down trees are green and dirt is brown
meerkat is a noun, be careful that you don't drown
in the sea of travesty, in the pool of mediocrity
in the galaxy of nothing, the vacuum of my heart
there's nothing at all in the galaxy of nothing
