about

So I think this needs an hour worth of ponderous explanation.

I was on the phone with our bassist, theringo524 (Tyler Traina, since you're obsessed with MY name) and the following conversation happened (more or less).

HIM: Think about it, man! We have the potential to be one of the best songwriters alive, like Frank Sinatra!
ME: Frank Sinatra's dead.
HIM: Frank Sinatra is a hot man on a bun!
ME: *laughs* Where do you come up with this shit, bro?
HIM: Actually, that sounds like it could make a decent song title, so long as it doesn't have any homoerotic connotations.
ME: I don't know, let me Google it.
(I do Google it, and find no real meaning, but see that the phrase has been used 9 times for different things.)
ME: It doesn't seem to mean anything, really.
HIM: Great! I'll go write some lyrics.

SUDDENLY TRANSCRIBING ACTUAL LYRICS

*bizarre chanting*
Man on a bun
Well, wouldn't it be fun
If you
Were on a bun too
Man on a bun
Wouldn't it be fun
If you
Were on a bun too
My soul is fading
Fading through you
And yet
I still regain control
Over all that it offers
And it offers plentiful harvest
For this world
All around us
It swallows us whole
It invokes in us all
A feeling of emptiness
It bleeds us dry of our emotions
They have no purpose anyways
For this
World
They are simply inhuman
Man on a bun
Wouldn't it be fun
If you
Were on a bun too
Man on a bun
You're a man on a bun
But wouldn't it be fun
If I were with you
My face is dripping wet with the moist caverns
A form of condensation
Relaxation of the mind
Comes to me in this
Very strange anthem I am singing to you now
I am fading
Drowning in a sea of
My emotional
Compactness
I'm suppressed by the wondrous world and all around it
I melt into myself
I have become your soul
