The Brand New Panic Lyrics

Overlord The Brand New Panic

It's a bulging bloated orb with a molten core 
Ready to explode dribble down your chin 
Ruining these baby blue blue jeans
But you've made up your mind
You're going to take a bite 
No matter what it does to me 
So go ahead dig in 
Enjoy the subtle flavors
Of my brand new panic
My brand new panic

It's a preteen playground war 
Between knife-fighting hordes
These amateur surgeons tremble like virgins 
Fumbling and flailing to the bitter end
Clumsy & unnerving 
Yet hardly noteworthy
Doubtlessly embarrassing
In a pantomime reflective 
Of my own polemic 
With my brand new panic
My brand new panic

But is it wrong 
To make yourself go mad 
To write a song?
To put Psychosis on the couch 
And let it talk?
To offer sympathy 
And crib the monologue 
Of my brand new panic?

Still there's no sexual metaphor
Permitted on this shore 
Our annual retreat
Signs posted the beach 
All along the Anhedonian Sea read: 
'Every single thing is concave or convex
And you'd better get used to it!'
And all my money's wasted
On uptight vacations
With my brand new panic
My brand new panic

And who knows where we'll go 
When I cede all control
To the more charming half of me?
In lieu of flowers 
Give in memory of me
c/o my brand new panic 
My brand new panic
My brand new panic
My brand new panic
