lyrics

They used to never show the monster ‘til opening night
Can we all agree that’s the one thing the movie got right?

You joined in on the booing:
“Hey, Roland, man, what are you doing?”
But you couldn’t see me stewing in the lowered light

Now my legs are bending backward into digitigrade
My jaw is jutting proudly and my eggs are laid
“A320” on my Discman while I mutate in the shade

Another shape-shift Sunday
Where I get in your way
We used to talk about the movies,
But now we’ve got nothing to say

Another shape-shift Sunday
Where I get in your way
We used to talk and talk and talk,
But now we’ve got nothing to say

So what if I wanna feel bad for some iguana that’s CGI?
I was moved by his breath and his death, but had to keep it inside

You make fun of everything I like
When I said that David Lynch is just alright,
You didn’t speak or even look at me the rest of the night

Another shape-shift Sunday
(Now my legs are bending backward into digitigrade)
Where we’ve got nothing to say
(My jaw is jutting proudly and my eggs are laid)
We used to talk about the movies,
(“A320” on my Discman while I mutate in the shade)
But now I swat the ‘copters away

I am a God, I am a lizard
And you’re a LEGO model to scale
Movie-poster optics and a coccyx growing into a tail

Crush your Criterion
You will appreciate the movies I make
My heart beats Florida thunder
And my footprints stomp the size of lakes
