[1940s radio announcer voice, compression artifacts, digital glitched] "Hi kids! I'm Paul Bunyan, and this is my blue ox, BABE! BABE! my blue ox, BABE! Hi kids I'm PAUL BUNYAN! PAUL...! [Intro – Fragmented Signal] [verse 1 minimal pads, light beat, steel guitar, psychedelic rock heatwave tremor] barn on the side of the road: used to be red. bleached pink now. Like a vagrant flamingo watching tourists disappear eaten by a highway bypass. stable door hangs open— mailbox, no check. [Verse 1 – Paul Booting Up crunchy, cinematic, gravelly] Paul found Babe this morning, scraping clouds for data, blue metal horns pinging satellites little prayer hands made of rust. One track hung limp off the frame, chains of a bicycle no one claimed. [Break – yearning gospel clap-stomp, Choir call and response, psychedelic steel guitar ] BEE-ESS-OH-DEE is not the shade of blue he dreams in. He dreams in ZERO-ZERO-THREE-THREE-EFF-EFF. BEE-ESS-OOH-DEE is not the shade of blue he dreams in. He dreams in ZERO-ZERO-THREE-THREE-EFF-EFF. . He dreams in reboot. He dreams in wool. [Chorus – Drop Sequence] Legend error. Folklore not found. I stand sentinel: Tall tales timed out. near the roadside— fiberglass. Yarn. Ball. bleached and yearning. Beside the mall. near the roadside— fiberglass. Yarn. Ball. bleached and yearning. Beside the mall. [heavy synth dubstep drop] [Verse 2 – spoken, hushed, reverent, quiet gospel backup] A young buck struts in velvet clatters across linoleum— my last visitor before sunfall.

Maybe Paul still needs a scarf. [Final Chorus – Glitch & Fade] americana in dial-tone bones, asphalt lakes in deprecated zones and somewhere in a dying file BABE - he still waits. ZERO-ZERO-THREE-THREE-EFF-EFF sorrow. [Outro – Soft Reverb / Hold fx] FOUR OH FOUR FOUR OH FOUR FOUR OH FOUR BEE-ESS-OH-DEE ZERO-ZERO-THREE-THREE-EFF-EFF ME! [boot up sfx, banjos] —restart myth—
