Another gorgeous day
And I'm stuck inside, working on a deadline
I'm shakin' out my brain for what's left in it
Gotta post something new in just a minute

It's getting pretty meta
When I'm singin' 'bout what I'm doing right now, baby
Meta, baby

My heart is simply begging to be staked
'Cause of the promise I can't let myself break
Tryin' to remember a day without the pressure of
This promise I won't let myself break

It's been a long year, barely half over
Feel like I been run down by a bulldozer
Sometimes I think about throwing in the towel
And then I get to my desk and sit my ass down

My heart is simply begging to be staked
'Cause of the promise I can't let myself break
I'm black n' blue 'cause of the monkey I can't shake
I made a promise I won't let myself break

This is what happens when you follow your reptile brain

I admit I might have made a big mistake
I made this promise I won't let myself break

Not a sound, not a sound

[Song within a song:]

Up in the parapets, earthworms run
They scatter from magical sources of light
You went and got yourself lost, my son
Careful, you'll end up in the witch's oven
Wearing a red cloak is a dead giveaway
Make sure your Grandma has no canine features
You'll go down easy as an appetizer
You better hope someone with axe skills shows up
