about

The idea for this song came about when I took a shower and was really congested. I couldn’t breathe but insisted on taking a long, hot shower. It gets kind of scary, though because you have to breathe out of your mouth during times like these, then you wonder if you might die or something because you’ve either accidentally swallowed too much bad water or just straight up asphyxiation. It’s all kind of funny, though, because the only reason I took a shower was for the sake of vanity. So you can imagine how funny it is when we think about all the dumb things we do to ourselves to look better—shaving, plucking, maquillage, balm, cream, paste, rinse, wash, etc. We “prolong” our lives by wasting hours in the process.
Sometimes I think it’d be better to just throw vanity to the dogs and let my body do what genetics and nature intended, but that’d just be so ga-ross!

lyrics

A shower should be a terrifying experience
What with the rush of the water
And the asphyxiation
Yet, still we welcome it
We corral the unnatural

It’s time we took a trip back to the days of our ancestors
Where things seemed so natural and pure
But we might just fall right off the edge of the world
On down like a rainfall

You can’t stop breathing, so why try to hold your breath?
We work so hard to preserve that we forget the present
Here’s my plea to forget face cream: stop sleeping, begin to dream
Stop sleeping, begin to dream.
