lyrics
I heard people talk about it for weeks
Its name made it sound like some eight, unheard-of circle of hell
What vile tortures awaited me there, I thought
Eating a Galaxy Caramel and waiting for the train
I had to stand by myself for half an hour
Shivering in the October cold because everybody said "don't bring a jacket"
And with my chest puffed up pathetically I thought, "how come you never shiver?
How come you never shiver?"
I was terrified of the Round Room
Two hundred heads all bouncing in unison
Two hundred caps all peaking in ecstasy
Or at least they would be, two or three years from now
But in this moment we're all just potential
And every little thing seems so essential
So before we all go fucking mental
Let me tell you how I feel tonight
You and me on Planet Perfecto
I adore you more than life itself
But I just don't know what to do with this love
Other than bury it deep down inside
Deep down inside
It was my birthday in three days
And as I hung back in a daze
I saw you manifested in dry ice and gauze
You leaned in close and asked if I was ready for my present
And somewhere up there, JFK replied, "of course"
A kiss that feels like an eternity
Even though you're counting every second
How much longer to go 'til it's canonical?
Another thirteen and a half, I reckon
You and me on Planet Perfecto
I adore you more than life itself
But I just don't know what to do with this love
Other than bury it deep down inside
