“Spooks” is the opening track of Dance Gavin Dance’s Downtown Battle Mountain II. The lyrics center around seeking a no strings attached relationship, but still ending up falling for the person
[Intro: Jonny Craig]
Fool, your word means shit
My eyes, they wander
[Verse 1: Jon Mess, Jonny Craig]
Not a lotta shit left to break inside the mind of acid-whore
Swallowing your sister’s nightstand
Might cover up the clogging pores
The sound of Master Blaster's tank weapon gun addon, I believe
Every single little child can benefit from smoking weed
You're filling your pockets with my bones
Filling your pockets
[Verse 2: Jon Mess]
Slow plans, stuck in my bladder, turn yourself sideways
Slow plans, stuck in my bladder, turn yourself sideways
I don’t know much about computers
But I know that you look like a child abuser
Slow plans, stuck in my bladder, turn yourself sideways
Slow plans, stuck in my bladder, turn yourself sideways
Sideways, sideways
[Chorus: Jonny Craig]
Move in, take what's not yours, take what I worked for
Slow down, stop me now, you're tearing apart my soul
[Verse 3: Jon Mess]
And lately we should be making me
The best type of record for wasting, please
Amazing bark is getting dark
You know that I know, can ride the arc
And lately we should be making me
The present elect is a burning tree
And you know that I know that I can’t be me
So I can be you, and well, you can be me
[Verse 4: Will Swan]
I'm a T.O.Y F.O.R you, on my pleasure principle
We keep it on the down low, 'cause public eyes are sensible
There ain't no outcome without the illusion
That I let you in the first place
Girl, you know what we're doin', this is dirty sex
Back seats, over the tables, under the sheets
At the workplace, on the beach, in the hammock where I sleep
I know it's your birthday, but could you call me up at 3:30?
Damn, okay, where do you want to meet?
[Bridge: Jonny Craig]
'Cause I know the lonely road it took to get there
And I believed, I believed it at your lonely word
Well, I knew the lonely road it took to get there
Yeah, I believed, I believed it in your lost words
Well, I know the only road it takes to get there
And I only feel it now because I've been there
And I know the lonely road it takes to get there
And I only feel it now because I've been there
[Chorus: Jonny Craig, Jon Mess]
Slow down, stop me now, you're tearing apart my soul
Move in, take what's not yours, take what I worked for
(Lame as well as boring, lame as well as boring)
[Outro: Jon Mess]
A thinly veiled guise elected for another new sound
Capitalize when you dumb it down
You defect and I'll be raging on top of my car
You defect and I'll be passed out, covered in tar
A thinly veiled guise elected for another new sound
Capitalize when you dumb it down
A thinly veiled guise elected for another new sound
Capitalize when you dumb it down
