I think the lyric, "It’s just a nod to the canon" is the band acknowledging the inspiration they have drawn from the Canon, defined as the body of historical musical works that are recognized as masterpieces worthy of study and performance. My favorite part of the lyrics is the part that says "Stickle brick, tickle quick, laugh at the beautiful". Stickle brick's are toys kind of like Legos that have very small teeth like a comb, which I guess would "tickle quick" if you held one. Their lyrics are seemingly so obscure. Truly amazing artists and musicians. I hope they are the beginning of a trend in modern music. |
