There's Nothing in the Barn Besides Weather​-​Worn Tapes

from A Wide Range of Perversions in Explicit Detail by Monaural

/

about

A story song about Peridot and Lapis Lazuli from Steven Universe rummaging through Greg and Andy DeMayo's abandoned video tapes. The modern world creeps in step by step.

lyrics

Gentle flicker of the TV screen
Connected box gives off life
Off-air tapings of everything
Staying up all night

We’ll watch any damn thing
Woody Allen to Divine, the Filthy Queen
Or Canuck camp-themed soap operas
Masterpiece – look at the sign, don’t bother.

So many crazy fuzzed-out worlds
Help me lull myself out of this fucked-up world.

Gentle flicker of the cable boxtop set
Peridot got from her job at the cassette
And vinyl shop – Cassavetes and Noé
Always something on every day

Doesn’t matter if it’s Theerlap or Civic TV
Or the dog the Norwegian man seethed
At, movies don’t make my gnash my teeth
Blue Like Jazz and the Jesus Freak and DCX3

So many crazy fuzzed-out worlds
Help me lull myself out of this fucked-up world.

Any minute I can’t do and then I’m done in…
DONE IN!

You tried to do the FBI, didn’t work!
You tried to bleed me fuckin’ dry, didn’t work!
Poured kombucha on my head to prove I’m good!
Can’t erase the sting of the morning wood!
They’ve gone too far –
they’ve got the “Nugget in the Biscuit” guy!

Gentle flicker of the mobile device
With Paulette and Percy it feels just right
A wide range of perversions in explicit detail!

(quotation of “That Don’t Impress Me Much” by Shania Twain)

So many crazy fuzzed-out worlds
Help me lull myself out of this fucked-up world.

Any minute I can’t do and then I’m done in…
DONE IN!

I’m the pizza box king of Seoul!
And yet I feel empty inside!
I’m the millionaire king of Seoul!
And yet I feel empty inside!
I’m gonna get my dad out of that fucking bunker!
Empty! Inside!
I don’t want people to call me a class traitor!
