Plastis Wafer Lyrics
Lover face, I view you as the revolver introduced in my play, Act One
Lover face, want to make you ejaculate until it's no longer fun
I confess to really being quite charmed by your feminine effects
You're the only one with whom I would role play Oedipus Rex
I want you to be my pleasure puss
I want to know what it's like to be inside you
I want you to be my pleasure puss
I want to know how it feels when I give you that ooh la, ooh la la
Lover face, how your ass is pumping sweet licentious songs
Lover face, you're a scandal, your body is so wrong
Bless my lips with your Sunlandic kisses
While our hands explore each other's human vessels
Oh, you know, like four excited spiders
You give me such a rush, make my whole body blush
I don't care if they say you're just my crutch
I know you're not, you’re the only good thing I've got
Everything's so much more complicated over the phone
You are such a fucking star, oh, you know you are
I just awoke broke through today, had the mind to call your name internally
Through my seventh sense that's hallucinating
Anyway, we're artifacts of demigodly zero logic denizens
Oh, I just came in your arms tonight, you and I are friends
Not some polemic to be puzzled over, listen, they set my wings so randomly
When you’re dead I'll search for you
Like Orpheus, I'll find you some way
You are such a fucking star, oh, you know you are
I'll tell you one thing I know, you want my kisses in your Narcissistic collapse
Because it's so painful when they amputate the ego
See all the pretty corpses lined up along the beach
They're ringing the bells of the church to drive everybody insane
As the patina lips of the fountain stallion vomits water on this shirtless little brat
I can't get all those moving lights off her face
So I went out to the country, sat down on some straw
But I'm not putting out for God tonight, keeping my legs shut
It's a mistake lighting little white candles to make him love you
He's cold by any city's standards and they want to turn you down, it's messed up
"How about if I wilt your plantations?"
"You know the nightmares, they don't forget about you?"
God damn the concierge to a dreadful reincarnation!
I think I can do it by myself, I'm just trying to get healthy
Lover face, want to make you ejaculate until it's no longer fun
I confess to really being quite charmed by your feminine effects
You're the only one with whom I would role play Oedipus Rex
I want to know what it's like to be inside you
I want you to be my pleasure puss
I want to know how it feels when I give you that ooh la, ooh la la
Lover face, you're a scandal, your body is so wrong
Bless my lips with your Sunlandic kisses
While our hands explore each other's human vessels
Oh, you know, like four excited spiders
I don't care if they say you're just my crutch
I know you're not, you’re the only good thing I've got
Everything's so much more complicated over the phone
I just awoke broke through today, had the mind to call your name internally
Through my seventh sense that's hallucinating
Anyway, we're artifacts of demigodly zero logic denizens
Oh, I just came in your arms tonight, you and I are friends
Not some polemic to be puzzled over, listen, they set my wings so randomly
When you’re dead I'll search for you
Like Orpheus, I'll find you some way
You are such a fucking star, oh, you know you are
I'll tell you one thing I know, you want my kisses in your Narcissistic collapse

They're ringing the bells of the church to drive everybody insane

I can't get all those moving lights off her face
So I went out to the country, sat down on some straw
But I'm not putting out for God tonight, keeping my legs shut
It's a mistake lighting little white candles to make him love you
He's cold by any city's standards and they want to turn you down, it's messed up

Easily my favorite on the new album... I love how the song changes to suit the lyrical content.
This man is a genius.
Oedipux Rex (Oedipus the King), is one of the greatest Greek tragedies written by Sophocles. Oedipus, abandoned at birth, returns as an adult to (unknowingly) kill his father and wed & bed his mother. His mother ends up hanging herself, and Oedipus gouges out his eyes.
I think perhaps Barnes is suggesting that the object of this song is the one person he can explore the outer limits of sexual transgression with.
this song is too sexy
The most famous story in which Orpheus figures is that of his wife Eurydice (also known as Agriope). While fleeing from Aristaeus (son of Apollo), Eurydice ran into a nest of snakes which bit her fatally on her heel. Distraught, Orpheus played such sad songs and sang so mournfully that all the nymphs and gods wept. On their advice, Orpheus traveled to the underworld and by his music softened the hearts of Hades and Persephone (he was the only person ever to do so), who agreed to allow Eurydice to return with him to earth on one condition: he should walk in front of her and not look back until they both had reached the upper world. In his anxiety he forgot that both needed to be in the upper world, and he turned to look at her, and she vanished for the second time, but now forever. The story in this form belongs to the time of Virgil, who first introduces the name of Aristaeus. Other ancient writers, however, speak of Orpheus' visit to the underworld; according to Phaedrus in Plato's Symposium (179d), the infernal gods only "presented an apparition" of Eurydice to him. Ovid says that Eurydice's death was not caused by fleeing from Aristaeus but by dancing with naiads on her wedding day.
it's "...when they amputate the EGO"
seriously, when are they going to change this! it's 2014 and it's still wrong!

The first line is an allusion to 'Chekhov's gun'. The playwright Chekhov said that if a revolver is introduced in a play or even hangs on a wall, it must go off later in the play. i.e. everything in a play or work of art has to have a point, otherwise leave it out.
I'm not sure how this relates to the song, maybe Kevin means he knows that she'll definitely "go off" later, with a bang i'm assuming.
I thought it was Plastis Wafers, not plastis wafer..?
It IS echoing of "such a, such a star," but there's also a "fucking" being sung over it at the same time.
lover face, i view you as the revolver
(lover face throughout the song)
your body is so wrong
i'm not putting out for god - he would keep my legs shut
"you know the nightmares, they don't forget about you" (this fits with several other lines throughout the album)
"god damn the concierge!"
"just trying to get healthy"
