This performance of “5/4” is notable for having almost completely different lyrics compared to the album version. This was done on multiple songs during this period, like “Slow Country” and “Man Research”, which were also significantly altered lyrically.
[Verse 1: 2-D]
My job for me
My job made me die
Invade the city
It made my hard penis smile
Magic for me
Magic made me smile
It gets [?] down
It might get into your shine, to your shine
[Pre-Chorus: 2-D & Noodle]
To your shine
(Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh)
To your shine
To your shine
To your shine
To your shine
(Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh)
To your shine
To your shine
'Til it makes me kill myself
[Chorus: 2-D]
Come on
She turned my dad on
She turned my dad on, dad on, dad on
[Verse 2: 2-D]
[?] you told me
My job gets on sound
[?]
[?] come into your town
Magic for me
Magic made me smile
Invade the city
It made my hard penis smile, penis smile
[Pre-Chorus: 2-D & Noodle]
Penis smile
(Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh)
Penis smile
Penis smile
Penis smile
Penis smile
(Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh)
Penis smile
Penis smile
Penis smile
[?] makes me kill myself
[Chorus: 2-D]
Tell on, she turned my dad on
She turned my dad on, dad on, dad on
[Interlude: 2-D]
She made me kill myself
Come on, on
[Chorus: 2-D]
She turned my dad on
Come on
She turned my dad on
Come on
She turned my dad on
Come on
She turned my dad on, dad on, dad on
