This song is just brilliant and one of my favorites off the new album. The way the seemingly unrelated sets of lyrics play off each other is great, especially in the little moments like when they both say "cover my eyes" at the same time. Try listening to the song using headphones sometime, but take one of them out to isolate only one of the Johns (then do it the other way around).
Anyway, it seems to be about two distracted drivers who are about to crash into each other at the end of the song. Very TMBG - upbeat music, dark but funny lyrics
Totally agree. I love this song.
The only thing that bugs me is that the first two verses of Flan's bit are identical. Knowing TMBG, there'll be some clever reason for that, which I'm not getting.
It's a strange song to have stuck in your head, because you hear both sets of voices. Ok. I think I'm ready for the straight-jacket.
