Apologies if this is already within some thread nook i'm not aware of but are there any official lyrics for the new ep? Especially for Peacemaker, the syllables are so stretched in the ebbing of the tune they're especially hard to decipher. I'd be happy to share my attempt at deciphering them here if the real thing's not already out there somewhere.

genius has lyrics for the EP, but they aren't all completely accurate.

Panda's saying "let it in" at the end of the first stanza isn't he? I've heard that since the first listen, but someone has it transcribed there as "land, it's here", which i absolutely can't hear even when trying.

e: my mind really, really wants to hear

got sold steam it's landed right right right
rose stuff comes up to choke us
knee jerk to a real jerk
shades and shadows of a tomb raid
let it in



meaning: election (RIGHT rather than left),
rose stuff -> drama with the rose candidate (choking the party)
knee jerk to a real jerk

line 4 has to be talking about tomb of sargeras because the song came out while i was doing tomb of sargeras tuning for wow at work, and i obviously have songs written just for me from animal collective

(i dunno tho)

also, Peacemaker has a set of lyrics spoken in the background by dave, starting at 1:11, each line is said twice.

first line he says srsly resembles "scum from the sum"
next may be "nerve of what comes" (not what he's saying, i just can't match any other words to the sounds yet)

second set of lines is at 2:36 and it sounds about the same as the first

is Goalkeeper about Noah serving as the final say in a song being cut or not from the AC name (e.g. appearing on a release) in dave's eyes? What the heck. If i'm projecting that interpretation, what does THAT mean?

Idk I think Peacemaker is about global warming.
