[Verse 1] Got the text “Reminder: see you soon” White walls in my head Like a waiting room Floss on the counter That I never touch Tongue on a filling Yeah, it hurts too much [Pre-Chorus] Mouth wide, spotlight Every secret on display Rubber gloves, cold eyes Can I pray my fear away? [choir swells behind, single held note] [Chorus] Dental doom Open wide for the judgment Silver moons Shining out of my jawline (ahh) Bite down, feel the pressure, taste that bloom Of the mint and the panic Welcome to my Dental doom [Verse 2] They say “just a cleaning” Like it’s nothing big But I see that needle Coming round the rig X-ray halo Framing all my sins Every late-night soda Every sweet I binged [Pre-Chorus] Heartbeat, bass drum As the chair tilts back so slow Masked face, bright light “Any pain, just let me know” [operatic “aaah” glides up, then cuts] [Chorus] Dental doom Open wide for the judgment Silver moons Shining out of my jawline (oh-oh) Bite down, feel the pressure, taste that bloom Of the mint and the panic Welcome to my Dental doom [Bridge] (Is it over?) When they say “you’re doing great” (Just a moment) And the drill begins to shake Latin echoes in my brain Like a requiem for sugar Every chorus, every stain Singing “see you in six months, sucker” [Chorus] Dental doom Open wide for the judgment Silver moons Shining out of my jawline (ahh) Bite down, feel the pressure, taste that bloom Of the mint and the panic Welcome to my Dental doom (doom)
