FORTEAN PHENOMENA

lyrics

Blink and you'll miss me I'm Fortean phenomena
Did the inventor of TV know it would hoard the melodramas?
People hoard vintage wheel-os and believe in chupacabras
I'm a yellow llama trotting along near clueless papas
and mamas too, boom shakalaka boom
Tell me who to drop kick dude
Teach me who to lock in school
I'm actually your father, Luke.
And possibly Dr. Zhivago too
Hey tell me: how's an otter move?
Do you have a hairy popper, Lou?
Is that your fairly Amish crew?
Let's have a staring contest ooooo
Televangelists are barely honest mooks
And every. prophet. ever. pooped.
Please don't snare and flog me who
are you to glare and taunt me Sue?
A boy named Jordan Clark all kookoo
but rarely flaunts his jewels
Some of us need very somber clues
I'm in a scary monstrous zoo
Feeling real as Mary Poppins' drool
Used to be like fairly pompous too
Til I considered the air that lobsters use
But maybe let's just merrily gobble food
And stare carelessly at knockers nude
Feel nauseous like Jean Paul Sartre; puke
What shampoo do martyrs use?
Do we really need a social contract, like Hobbes' view?
Is this just plum-berry artless goo?
Nothing more than dust fairies gobbledygook?
Because see I'm skeptical like that Scottish Hume
So disillusioned that I'm nearly a Marxist, Ruth
Petrified-heart flatlanders dropping some bombs n nukes
Have me feeling like a teary-eyed Doctor Seuss
beary-eyed stooge, more helpless than jars of fruit
But fuck it let's have a renaissance like those Harlem groups
Most marmosets are square and marmish BOO
Woah, I just parried a starlit ghoul
But who am I to dare to carve my tomb?
Catch me in Korea surrounded by mostly harmless boobs
Also frowning fogies and terribly charmless tools
Blackout business men slash weary and maudlin dupes
Materialistic insecure heartsick noobs
But not all bad--almost no fear of starving goons
And even a few clearly smart dubloons
Various historical cultures would probably harvest fools
But other cultures support near-endless coitus loops
