About

This is track 6 of Downtown Battle Mountain II, released in 2011.

The vague use of pronouns in this song leaves much interpretation for what the song is truly about, but it is easy to tell that themes in this song include promiscuity and the consequences of alcohol-fueled decisions.

Elder Goose Lyrics

[Verse 1: Jonny Craig]
Day one the lights fade, the music's full of bass
She's all up in my face, I can't believe she's so close
Feeling her grind made me lose my mind
I'm just plain old take home material, take home material

[Verse 2: Jonny Craig]
I keep my fingers crossed
Hoping to find a way to show you what I'm made of
Throw all our worries to the wind

[Verse 3: Jon Mess]
I backtracked, stabbed at you
Followed the tracks to a cabin filled with wooden spoons
Then a shred of lead ripped my hoodie in two
There’s no telling what my evil twin brother wouldn’t do

[Verse 4: Jonny Craig]
I wake up drenched in sweat
Wondering who I'm lying with
What a joke, there's nothing left to explore

[Chorus: Jonny Craig, Jon Mess]
Find myself at the end of a bottle
Laying in your bed hoping to find out where I'm at
(The weight can make you trip, but you won't fall down)
And it's gone away, my song so long
(The weight can make you trip, but you won't fall down)

[Hook: Jon Mess]
Accept fresh, fresh can of broccoli
I can't hear you when you are knocking
Unless fresh, fresh can of broc'
I’ll be leaning towards a centimeter short of much
Accept fresh, fresh can of broccoli
I can't hear you when you are knocking
Unless fresh, fresh can of broc'
I’ll be leaning towards a centimeter short of much

[Verse 5: Jonny Craig]
As the sun goes down baby I'm in town
Hoping to find someone to take it all
I know I'm right when I say go away
You get around, oh. you get around, oh
You get around, oh, you're busy fucking everyone
Busy fucking everyone, oh you're busy fucking everyone

[Chorus: Jonny Craig, Jon Mess]
Find myself at the end of a bottle
Laying in your bed hoping to find out where I'm at
(The weight can make you trip, but you won't fall down)
And it's gone away, my song so long
(The weight can make you trip, but you won't fall down)

[Bridge: Jonny Craig]
Feeling my heart race
Drenched in sweat
As I wonder
I'm not scared, not prepared
Lay down flat on your back
Open up girl, let's play a tad
Let's waste our time

[Outro: Jon Mess]
Back on top, but my blocks mowed down
Man I’m fit
Yeah my stomachs never touched the ground
But I’m courteous
Still keep it real with my nerdiness
14th’s my birthday
Her's is on the 30th
If you were dead I bet this shit would bloom
Get a standing ovation from an empty room
Fuck your ass
I don’t want your cereal
You can get your wig split back
I'll be the same O.G

What did Dance Gavin Dance say about "Elder Goose"?

Will said this in an interview with Mind Equals Blown

I had “Spooks,” “Elder Goose,” and “The Robot With Human Hair 2 1/2” fully written out probably a full year before we even started writing DBM2. The rest of them were written about a month and a half before recording DBM2.
