about

This track began during our warmup at a Cactus Club show. Someone (Dylan? Joey? Gordon?) began chanting "FRENCH TUCK!" Dylan decided to turn it into full-fledged track inspired by Cake and other 90s/00s bands he really liked.

lyrics

French tuck!
French tuck!
French tuck!
French tuck!

I've been whispering my dreams to my computer at night
...and now it serves me ads about them
The algorithm tells me who I really am,
I tell the algorithm who I want to be
They say "You gotta have your vape cos smoking kills!"
My feed is comprised of cute dog memes and snuff films

French tuck!
French tuck!
French tuck!
French tuck!

You're dating a .JPEG from the cursed images subreddit
And I've had it up to here with your #HornyOnMain bullshit
She says "Don't worry about it baby," but I'm not baby, THIS IS PATRICK
And I plan on being a star so I need to be above these antics
I take no responsibility, these folks can't be wrangled
I'll stan all my musician friends until they get canceled

French tuck!
French tuck!
French tuck!
French tuck!

Happiness is a pyramid scheme
Happiness is a multi-level marketing company
And we all came in too late!
We all came in too late!

They say "Think of the shows you wanna play when you get dressed"
That's why I walk around covered in glitter strapped to the Tiny Desk
They say "Fake it 'til you make It" so I'm producing a film
Based on that Stephen King novel about the kids who fuck in the sewer
I may look like a clown but I'm not having fun
When you upload me to the cloud take my depression, but not my guns

French tuck!
French tuck!
French tuck!
French tuck!
