Playing The Long Game
Navigating Life's Labyrinth: Panda Bear's Musical Odyssey
Lyrics
Waking on a may be cloudy, may be rain
Waking up in uncertain weather, possibly cloudy or rainy
Playing at a may be cloudy kind of game
Engaging in a game with unpredictable or unclear outcomes
Slip on every step amidst a morning rush (slipping on)
Experiencing challenges and obstacles in the morning rush
Crashing like a fact and now I'm in its clutches
Encountering a harsh reality and being caught in its grip
I'm juking all the baggage
Avoiding unnecessary burdens or baggage
Keep it in a straight line
Maintaining a focused and direct path
And when it's separated
Separating oneself from distractions or negative influences
I can keep it in the right mind (just one time)
Keeping a clear and positive mindset, especially in challenging times
And then I slip into a feeling
Transitioning into a particular emotional state
(Feeling, feeling, feeling, feeling, feeling, feeling)
Emphasizing the intensity of the emotional transition
Slip into a feeling, write a little rhyme
Repeating the process of entering a specific emotional state and writing a rhyme
Ladies riding refuse like a rooster's cry (cry)
Describing unconventional behavior, like riding refuse, akin to a rooster's cry
I'm tickled with a gobble, what you gonna do?
Expressing amusement or satisfaction, possibly in response to a peculiar situation
Vision like a bubble right in front of you
Having a clear vision or perception similar to a bubble in front of oneself
Even when a noggin is a cup of dread
Even when troubled, maintaining a positive outlook
Used to be a comment, was a temporal thing
Reflecting on the past when comments were temporary and fleeting
And every single good jam dries
Noting that every positive experience eventually comes to an end
Drying on the vine
Comparing enjoyable moments to grapes drying on a vine
Like a little sweet thing
Describing something small and delightful
Rotting in a can
Highlighting the deterioration or loss of something sweet or enjoyable
