[Will Wood - White Noise - The Vermont Hollywood, Los Angeles, CA lyrics]
(Spoken)
Accepted by my audience as I do now
And I've never felt as
Connected to you guys as I have
Over the past couple weeks
And I cannot thank you enough
For that thank you
They paint the walls with colors that
You’re not meant to notice
Beiges and browns, off-whites and grayscales
Fluorescent lights to shine on
The eggshell ground
Now you’re lying face down
You blend into the background of white noise
They fill the halls with tunes you
Can’t get into your head 4
4 and Dorian, wrote 'em for ignoring ‘em yeah
It sorta sounds like a retro top 40 but wrong
You’re not meant to sing along
It isn’t that kind of song it’s white noise
But if you listen closely I swear
To God, I swear
You can hear the ocean if you
Hold it up to your ear here
White noise listen close between the waves
White noise hear the ocean through your wake
White noise listen close between the waves
White noise
(Spoken)
How many times has this happened to you?
You go to take out the
Laundry, and you drop it
And it falls into a black hole
How many times has this happened to you?
You're straining your pasta and your
Eyeballs fall out into it
How many times has this happened to you?
There's a cat
And it won't tell you it's name
You don't recognize the cat
It's not your cat, you don't have a cat
But it's here
And it won't tell you what you need to
Know in order to properly
Assess the situation
Because the cat is much larger than
Any cat you've seen before it's a bear
How many times has this happened to you?
You die, and then are reborn again
Into the mind of a grasshopper
Wherein you die once more
And then are reborn again into
The mind of your mom?
How many times has this happened to you?
You give up
Check one, two, check, check, one, two
It’s high-fidelity lossless quality
It’s MP, one, two, three, four, five, F-L-A-C
It’s polyphonic the new Philharmonic
With a Juilliard doctorate
Live from the Metropolitan
It’s theoretically dense it’s impressive
It’s microtonal and it challenges
Western notions of art it’s post-avant-garde
It’s going places ‘cause it
Comes from the heart
And it’s personality’s a lack of identity
It makes no statement
But does so quite loudly it’s an aesthetic
I mean an anesthetic
And it’s an experience for
Your seventh sense, yes
Does it cure cancer? (Yes, it cures cancer)
Wow! It begs the question
Just to tell you the answer
Do you believe in the power of silence?
Well if you walk the walk, can you talk more
(Shh) quiet
White noise listen close between the waves
White noise woah woah
White noise listen close between the waves
White noise
You fill your head with thoughts you
Find you can't even feel
Try to make room in your skull
But it's full of them
All of the things that you
Think and think about thinking
I know it's hard but they’re not who you are
They're white noise
Accepted by my audience as I do now
And I've never felt as
Connected to you guys as I have
Over the past couple weeks
And I cannot thank you enough
