lyrics

This is my grand tack hypothesis
That something I can’t name drew me into this
That something I can’t explain pulled me into this
But it’s all the same, I’m driving into the abyss

When sweetness falls on the gumdrop sky
And the licorice trees all bow goodbye
When candy canes melt in morning mountain dew
When I take the job that takes me away from you
I’m gonna choke


This is my grand tack hypothesis
My first mistake was cognizance
And since then it’s been so monotonous
That I’ve begun to lose all confidence

Here I am – I’m coming near
Past the asteroid belt and driving in high gear
And Galileo’s moons now in my sight
And Jupiter glowing bright

Like Io’s tidal flexing
I re-center my direction

When sweetness falls on the gumdrop sky
And the licorice trees all bow goodbye
When candy canes melt in morning mountain dew
When I take the job that takes me away from you
I’m gonna choke

When the truckers began to arrive on Jupiter, reality began to set in. Though they had been warned that the trip would take too long for them to return to Cheap City, they never really believed it. And so they were forced to reckon with building a life on a new planet, whose texture somehow reminded them of cotton candy.

When sweetness falls on the gumdrop sky
And the licorice trees all bow goodbye
When candy canes melt in morning mountain dew
When I take the job that takes me away from you
I’m gonna choke
