This song is about Toxoplasma gondii, a parasitic protozoan that causes toxoplasmosis. Found worldwide, T. gondii is capable of infecting virtually all warm-blooded animals, but felids are the only known definitive hosts in which the parasite may undergo sexual reproduction.
[Verse 1]
Human being domesticated
Gondii's in the amygdala
Human being contaminated
Living-murdered feline worshiper
[Refrain]
What it feels like
Is it feels like
It's dreamlike
[Chorus]
Can't get a message to my brain, I can't control myself
Can't get a message to my brain, I can't control myself anymore
[Refrain]
What it feels like
Is it feels like
It's dreamlike
Woo
[Verse 2]
Human being manipulated
Gondii drizzles serotonin
Human being lubricated
Drowning in oxytocin
Woo
[Chorus]
Can't get a message to my brain, I can't control myself
Can't get a message to my brain, I can't control myself anymorе
I've got oocysts inside my head, I can't control mysеlf
Can't get a message to my brain, I can't control myself anymore
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
So am I the bird or am I the worm?
Do I have free will? Do I have free thought?
Woo
Am I the chicken or am I the egg?
Have I liberty? Have I my wings?
You shouldn't fight it or deny it
Just breathe in and embrace it
Symbiotic Gondii choir
Sings a song of fuzzy minds
So am I the dog or am I the cat?
No, it's neither one, I am the rat
Woo
[Chorus]
Can't get a message to my brain, I can't control myself
Can't get a message to my brain, I can't control myself anymore
I've got oocysts inside my head, I can't control myself
Can't get a message to my brain, I can't control myself
