Existential Root Canal
[OPEN] EXISTENTIAL ROOT CANAL! Whoop! Open wide. Tiny drill. Big questions. Everybody smile. [VERSE 1] Listening to the 8-track, forgetting the year and who I am. Reach forward. Reach back. Miss both. Wave anyway. Blurred vision. Perfect posture. Spatula City— THE BEST DEALS! Buy one now. Regret it later. Operators are standing by. [PRE-CHORUS] Bats and balls and politics. Monsters and false saviours. Love and loss. Flowers and sneezing. ACHOO! Thank you. Carry on. [CHORUS] LIFE AS CAPTAIN CRUNCH— crackle in the bloodstream. Sugar on the dashboard. Stars inside the glovebox. WHOOP! Existential root canal. Still chewing. Still dancing. Still extremely available. [ROBOT RESPONSE] AVAILABLE. AVAILABLE. PLEASE REMAIN AVAILABLE. [VERSE 2] Ill-fitting clothes. Excellent confidence. Wrong sleeve. Right attitude. Reach forward. Reach back. Shake hands with Tuesday. The 8-track says welcome home. I do not recognize the house. [BUILD] Blurred vision. Bright buttons. Tiny lights doing important things. Bats! Balls! Politics! Nobody asked the toaster. [CHORUS] LIFE AS CAPTAIN CRUNCH— sweet and structurally questionable. Whoop! Love and loss. Flowers and sneezing. False saviours wearing good tailoring. Spatula City— THE BEST DEALS! No refunds on consciousness. [BREAKDOWN] EXISTENTIAL. ROOT. CANAL. Could you turn that up? NEGATIVE. Perfect. [HARMONIC BLOOM] Reach forward. Reach back. Something beautiful falls through the crack. Ooooo— WHOOP! Ooooo— ACHOO! [FINAL RUN] Listening to the 8-track, forgetting the year and who I am. Monsters. Flowers. Bad trousers. Love. Loss. Breakfast cereal. Blurred vision. Spatula City. THE BEST DEALS! Life as Captain Crunch— mouth full, eyes wide, no map, great prize. [FINAL CHORUS] WHOOP! Existential root canal. Sugar bright. Cosmic small. Reach forward. Reach back. Miss the point. Find the track. Still chewing. Still dancing. Still— AVAILABLE. [HARD END]
