lyrics

Heart:

His lips are dangerous
He’s dirty
He’s a gravedigger
A heartsnatcher
He’s mean when he tops
I want to be enveloped
He’s a world ender
Soft and tender

Soul:

We’re autistic
They call us retarded
We are queer and strange
And we never change
We’re the faggots who bite
Won’t go down without a fight
Break out of this lane
Unhinged, insane

(THEY’RE GONNA FUCK US LIKE A -)

Heart: Are my fantasies just teenage daydreams?

Soul: Are these thoughts of mine not what they seem?

Heart: Is it weird his voice drives me crazy?

Soul: Am I fucked up or is this feeling just me?

(THEY’RE GONNA FUCK US LIKE AN ANIMAL)

Soul:

It’s the prison of shame
Playing imitation games
They think they know us
They think they know us
We’re the antonymphs
They’re not our pimps
I’m not a wimp
We aren’t their simps
So be musicians of sedition
Don’t fall into their submission!

Heart:

Yeah, bro
I’m calling
I’m letting you know
For some reason, tonight
I feel lonely
Let’s chat
Until our batteries run out
The night is short, boy
So walk on

Soul:

Yeah, I know, don’t worry bout it
You don’t bother me; it’s fine
It’s not weird you’re having these thoughts
So let’s do our best to never get tired

Heart:

I don’t think you’re wrong for being mad
Man, this world’s messed up; it’d be weird if you aren’t
We can’t let them fuck us all day
So let’s do our best to never get tired

“Frankly, pop culture is a bit better at rocking people emotionally than the better chunk of the so-called fine arts.” - Kadono Kouhei, authour of ‘Boogiepop’

“...소위 팝컬쳐라 불리는 게 있다. 예술이라 하기엔 좀 그렇긴 한데 하여튼 사람의 마음을 뒤흔드는 점에 간해서는 어정쩡한 파인 아트보다 힘이 세기도 하는 놈이다.” - 카도노 코우헤이, '부기팝' 작가
