by Abominominous
feat. Paula Cole

forever envious of people with tattoos
i bet a bundle on a hoss and didn't lose
i took a marker mapped 'em right out on my bod
don't wanna hold 'em up describin' what i want
but it's
cobra commander wearin' peter criss' paint on my back
a tribal cheeseburger chestpiece, whopper/mac
take all the scales and modes along my inner arm
i'll get it all at once, for rilla, what's the harm?

i don't want to wait
color me quickly, neck down, wrist in, completely
i don't want to wait
color me quickly, i've gotta drive to lodi in the morning

a team of minor leaguers volunteered to carve
i gave 'em half an afternoon to lay the art
and swallowed half an ibuprofen for the pain
i put 'em up to this i really can't complain about it
ten, eleven irons scratchin' in the flash
i ordered pizza and i paid 'em all in cash
it's not the tightest but i'm solid with the ink
i wonder what the congregation's gonna think tomorrow

i don't want to wait
color me quickly, left to the top, right to bottom
i don't want to wait
color me quickly, a batch of fetch 'toos, i wan't em

this is easily the weirdest song you've submitted so far, and I really enjoyed it! Something in the music reminds me of Deerhoof, and I mean that as high praise. The vocals are mostly pretty hard to decipher while listening, which maybe isn't ideal, but it didn't bother me personally. It took me a while to figure out the sample, the way you've recontextualised it makes it sound like a flute stab or something. BUT now that I get it, I love the song even more! Probably not a great idea to call out the judges while I'm still in the competition but judges! How could you rank this so low!? You crazy!
