Lyrics
Some weepy creepy willow pillow boggy shit
Reference to a sad, eerie, and swampy situation or feeling.
Transcendental big wheel can you feel it
Asking if one can experience a profound and spiritual understanding.
Chickey face down trippin' so damn hard
Describing someone intoxicated and tripping heavily, possibly on drugs.
Head splits open stuffin' spills into the car
Imagery of a severe headache causing the head to split open, with contents spilling out.
Cup of dirty water and a lonely bony frog
A cup of polluted water and a solitary, skinny frog.
Slip me seven dollars and I'll pump it full of smog
Offering to contaminate something for a small payment.
Paint a monkey gold and let it lose downtown
Suggesting the act of painting a monkey gold and letting it roam in the city.
Start him up with a smile and he come back with a frown
Starting with optimism, but the result is disappointment.
Twig in the wind
Reference to being flexible and adaptable, like a twig in the wind.
I'm thick and I'm thin and all right
Emphasizing both thickness and thinness as acceptable or satisfactory.
Happy feelin' crappy in your nappy little car
Feeling content in an uncomfortable or unsatisfactory situation.
Squozen frozen duplicated drunk in a bar
Being intoxicated and duplicated, possibly repeating mistakes.
Tape recorded all distorted genius machine
Recording distorted sounds using advanced technology.
Spokes model dipped in refried beans
Describing a spokesperson immersed in a messy situation.
Piggys pay full price to put their necks on the stump
People paying a high price for putting themselves in risky situations.
Dusty busted skeletons who pay at the pump
Describing worn-out individuals who pay a cost for their actions.
Multi nippled rotating D.J. sap
Reference to a strange DJ with multiple nipples, possibly symbolizing excess or eccentricity.
I'm shoulder high in crap and my water wings are flat
Being immersed in a challenging situation with deflated support.
Twig in the wind

I'm thick and I'm thin and all right
Re-emphasizing both thickness and thinness as acceptable or satisfactory.
