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.
