“Adventure.exe” is about the famous Japanese author Yukio Mishima, celebrated for his powerful yet fragile prose, who led an unsuccessful coup against the Japanese government in 1970. Mishima shows up again in “I’m Afraid of Japan”.
The title of the song comes from the 1976 text-based computer game...
Hey yo yo yo yo yo
I need an empire to overthrow
You make me wish for a more dangerous life
So I can show you 'bout self sacrifice
Say yes yes yes yes yes
Say no no no to a natural death
I'd rather give my life to god as man
Than have to line up at the bank again
Oh you you you you you
If you only knew the lengths I'd go to
You pack away all your ballpoint pens
And take a plane back to the Phillipines
Adventure.exe was written by Owen Pallett.
