I Want This Cyclops Lyrics

I lied, I can verbalize what the gist of this song is. It's basically about two hot girls who are flirtatious ("peppering their respective speeches with cupids and commas") yet virgins/hard to get in a relationship ("I Don't Wanna's, I Don't Think Sos"). Deep down they really want someone ("I want this cyclops") but they are holding out for the real deal (not the "criminal element").

This song is so perfect. It's all bouncy and nice and pretty until we get to the climax of "I want this cyclops" which is totally heartbreaking and sincere. I'm amazed Bejar was this good this early. City of Daughters is definitely my favorite (right behind Kaputt).

I love the fact that I was feeling the very same way about this song and found a singular comment 14 yrs ago to really grasp that that's what I felt. In a nut, I wholly respect your admiration for Destroyer and I made an account just to reach you from the ends of a sliver of time to tell you that. Hope you still feel the same way today.
