History[]

"Believe Me Maizey" was sung by Gene on his deathbed, wishing luck to Maizey while he slowly dies due to being blasted by Space-Pope Chili IX.

Composition[]

The main instrumental for "Believe Me Maizey" was licensed from Audio Network under the original title "Keep Our Love Alive". The original instrumental was composed by Pete Masitti and John Andrew Barrow.[1] The lyrics to "Believe Me Maizey" were presumably written by Shane Madej. The song is written in the key of C#/Db Major, although it modulates up one semitone to the key of D Major around 3:35 in the SoundCloud version of the song. The song has a tempo of 77bpm.

Lyrics[]

The echoes of "Plupple Honeymoon " are heard.

GENE

Sometimes your life

Don't go exactly how you planned

Sometimes your death

Don't go exactly how you planned

GENE (spoken)

Oh, wait, one last thing!

Instrumental introduction.

GENE

It’s lookin' like I’ve had enough

I tried the best I can but I don’t got the stuff

I got shot by the Chili Pope

It’s easy livin' as a french fry 

I’m critically acclaimed but now it’s time to die 

Frankly life’s been pretty dope 

It’s been a long, hard road for a french fries and corn to walk down 

Who could’ve ever known the road would lead to... 

You and me and Soup and Goondis taking on the galaxy! 

I know that life is crazy

But believe me, Maizey

You’ll be fine without me here…

I mean, I’m just a funny french fries

There’s really no need to cry

Even though I’m so revered

Little Mr. B. plays a guitar solo.

BACKUP VOCALS

(Even though I'm so revered!)

Musical break.

BACKUP VOCALS

(And, I'm sorry, Maizey!)

GENE 

Was livin’ lonely in a future state 

But I traveled back in time and met my foodie-mates 

Most of them were witch holograms 

BACKUP VOCALS 

(Almost of all them were holograms) 

GENE 

The story gets a little dense from there 

But if you got a brain it’s pretty crystal clear 

Here, check out this diagram. 

See a wedding 

Fell into a witch volcano 

Then we scrammed 

And then we landed on the planet of the Plupples, et cetera 

Now we’re traveling to the past to save our friends and kick some ass! 

BACKUP VOCALS 

(Oh, ah!) 

GENE 

I know that things seem kinda shitty 

And that the odds aren’t lookin’ pretty but 

What’s the point of quittin’ now? 

BACKUP VOCALS 

(No, we can never go back!) 

GENE 

And I won’t be here to see it 

But you bet your ass that I believe that 

You’ll still save the day somehow! 

BACKUP VOCALS 

(Maizey’s gonna save the day!) 

GENE 

The end is comin’ 

Gonna punch my mortal ticket 

If I had a fuckin’ bucket then I’d got a hunch I’d kick it 

And I’m sorry for the cursin’ but I’m feelin’ worse and worse and I don't... 

I don’t wanna die... 

BACKUP VOCALS 

(But I’m probably gonna die) 

GENE 

I know it might sound crazy 

But believe me, Maizey 

You’ll be fine without me here… 

BACKUP VOCALS 

(Oh, ah!) 

GENE 

And it’s lookin’ like this french fry’s gonna 

Take his bow in this Hot Daga 

I’m dyin’ now, just so it's clear 

BACKUP VOCALS 

(This is it, holy shit, this is it, I'm gonna die!) 

GENE 

I’ll see you later, pals 

I'm outta here!

GENE coughs. 

GENE

It’s been a treat…

I think I… see Smeech.

Notes[]

In the version of "Believe Me Maizey" posted to the Risky Fixins' Soundcloud, there is a section of Morse code that has been translated as "space and thyme". [2] It is currently unknown what this could mean or why it was included in the song, but there is speculation that it could be hinting at the title of a future season of the Hot Daga.
