Tuberculoids Lyrics

He went slightly to conniving
in a splatter of months
every Tuesday, play the fool day
circumstantial because

An event to fills the dents with
all the raison d'plum
they say our ghastly never feared him
when the master draws him home

For all its worth

Snaggletooth floss makes the iris
blame a fit unstrangled
mock the vendors, pluck the tendons
when the pulpit drives by

Tuberculoids come drip your spirits
in the glass of wedding drunks
I hold the hair untouched by sick tuberculoids
I'm getting young, young, young, so young

This is where he came relieving
all his post op recon
where the baby made eighty
cylindrical dials

Compute
destitute
with ten gallon suit

Found another culture
where the men eat their isles

For all its worth

Busy street grudge, torch the sweepers
nasty old carpets we ride
filming crimson, all the lint cuts
fester with tested for life

Tuberculoids come drip your spirits
in the glass of wedding drunks
I hold the hair untouched by sick tuberculoids
I'm getting young, young, young, so young

Tuberculoids come drip your spirits
in the glass of wedding drunks
I hold the hair untouched by sick tuberculoids
I'm getting young, so young, so young

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I'd have to agree with Goetia up there. This was something most extreme to hit my ears this morning. I looked up "Hella" on Youtube not too far off ago, and had a chance to watch Zach Hill on drums there. I have to say that Hella really isn't my thing and as I watched the videos I wondered why that guitarist was even there with the calamity of the drums. It was cluttered noise to my ears. I couldn't stop watching Zach tear those damn drums up though, and thinking "Yeah, put this guy with Omar, and you can have some really good results."

I honestly hope that Thomas Pridgeon remains in the Volta though, I still don't think Zach Hill compares to him. He's fast, sure, but that's never what it was all about to me. Pridgeon goes fast with great groove.

Thomas will remain in the Volta... This was recorded almost three years ago, before Thomas joined.
