how have we come to be mere mirrors of annihilation?

[starbuck]

john darnielle will say “no you don’t understand guys, this line was SO bad, it’s literally the worst thing ever i couldn’t even release the song because it was so awful and i couldn’t fix it,” and then the line will be “I've got a Kenmore single-room window unit air conditioner.”

A lot of pre 2003 mountain goats is random and occasionally stupid shit and usually im on board and I recognize this one’s probably going over my head and that’s like the whole point or whatever but also i have to ask, because I just have to, and i know i will never get an answer but. Pure Honey goes like this.

What possibly could have inspired a song this specific. What’s with all the Portuguese water dogs, John?

i don’t give a rat’s ass, you rat bastards

[oddlyspecifictmglyrics]

And I know you're only watching out for yourself And I know I'm not to take it real personal-like And I know you only want what's best for everybody I know you only want what's best for everybody But you better be nice or the Easter Bunny's gonna strike your name out of the little red book with the silver hinges on it that he carries

If there are 10,000 “Yam, The King of Crops” by the Mountain Goats fans, I am one.

If there are 1,000 “Yam, The King of Crops” by the Mountain Goats fans, I am one.

If there are 10 [actual realistic number] “Yam, The King of Crops” by the Mountain Goats fans, I am one.

If there are no “Yam, The King of Crops” by the Mountain Goats fans, then I felt sick, felt good, the heat burns, old wood, muscles in my arms pump like machines, the jericho palm tree is plush and green, bright sun, the new day, I felt sick in a good way, felt the fever climb when you came down, all the way across town, and you brought me a plate of sweet potatoes; sun fading overheard, the sunset, bright red, your green eyes, your smooth walk, fresh tomato, celery stalk, you cook: pot of pari basmati rice, I felt good, you looked nice, you stood like galatea, over me, fried garlic, kimchi, and you brought me a plate of sweet potatoes.
