Daily Routine Lyrics
Just a sec more in my bed
Hope the machine's working right
When it's just precisely tuned
That's how it comes out so nice
Make sure my kid's got a dress
Keys and coat and shoes and hat
Strap a stroller to my back
Bouncing along every crack
What good is it to make it fast?
Sing a song to pass the playground
What can I do as traffic pass
Guard my girl from muffler's black gas?
What can I do to make it fast?
Pop a jump but not too hard
Take a little look up at the ramp
Stop and look at the traffic signal
Up uneven steps and talking's hard
Just a sec more in my bed
Hope the machine's working right
When it's just precisely tuned
That's how it comes out so nice
Make sure my kid's got a dress
Keys and coat and shoes and hat
Strap a stroller to my back
Bouncing along every crack
What good is it to make it fast?
Sing a song to pass the playground
What can I do as traffic pass
Guard my girl from muffler's black gas?
What can I do to make it fast?
Pop a jump but not too hard
Take a little look up at the ramp
Stop and look at the traffic signal
Just a sec more in my bed
Hope my machine's working right
Hope the machine's working right
When it's just precisely tuned
That's how it comes out so nice
Keys and coat and shoes and hat
Strap a stroller to my back
Bouncing along every crack
Sing a song to pass the playground
What can I do as traffic pass
Guard my girl from muffler's black gas?
Pop a jump but not too hard
Take a little look up at the ramp
Stop and look at the traffic signal
Hope the machine's working right
When it's just precisely tuned
That's how it comes out so nice
Keys and coat and shoes and hat
Strap a stroller to my back
Bouncing along every crack
Sing a song to pass the playground
What can I do as traffic pass
Guard my girl from muffler's black gas?
Pop a jump but not too hard
Take a little look up at the ramp
Stop and look at the traffic signal
Hope my machine's working right

just realized that while singing this song in my bed that "just a SECCCC moooreeee in maaahhhh beeeeeeddd" sounds like a yawn. i know this because i sang it while yawning. just saying. they probably didn't intend for that but it worked out well for them.
in the album version, the line "that shit's gonna be so nice" is changed to "how it turns out so nice"
Seconded. Well, minor, but its actually "How it comes out so nice."

i miss "that shit's gonna be so nice" i thought that was so funny. also at one point it was "that shit's gonna be so tight". that was most funny.

he definitely says
When it's just precisely tuned Its how it comes out so nice
definitely
I think this song describes Panda Bear living through his whole daily routine (taking his daughter to school or the playground) and then waking up to realize it was all a dream and the day hasn't even started yet. When he finally wakes up, his energy is already drained, so he keeps pleading for "just a sec more" in his bed. The transition from dream to real life is extremely accurate and well defined. Everything slows down and the bells in the background start to resemble an alarm clock.

Just a sec more in my bed Hope my machine's working right When it's just precisely tuned That's how it's going to end up so nice
Make sure my kid's got a jacket Keys and coat and shoes and hat Strap a stroller to my back Bouncing along every crack
What good is it to make it fast Sing a song to pass the playground What can I do as traffic pass Guard my girl from muffler's black gas What can I do to make it fast Pop a jump but not too hard Take a little look up at the ramp Stop and look at the traffic signal

you have the end of the first stanza wrong. you messed on the lyrics to 'also frightened' too. you shouldn't put 'official' at the top of the lyrics if you aren't sure they're correct.

i made an account just to say that the intro organ that gradually speeds up eventually sounds like an alarm clock that wakes him up to start his day, then as he hits the snooze the vocals kick in. dont think about that listening to it on headphones at work. u may start tearing up. i did when i noticed it after the 50th listen. THEN after the final "TRAFFIC SIGNAL" the organ kicks back in you can picture a traffic light going bonkers to the sound and it eventually fades back to him in bed with the alarm clock going off as he is asking for "just a sec more".....
holy shit you just blew my mind
holy shit you just blew my mind
hope THE machine is working right
ITS HOW it comes out so nice
...WE'LL END UP on our backs and look up at the traffic signal?
...should the first "what good is it" be "what can i do"?
listening to this while your high is spiritual
Listen to the Phaseone remix..Awesome.
i thought it was "just a signal in my head."
i need to listen to this album sober for once.
That's exactly what I hear, even when sober!
