The first single from the Shitty Osmonds' upcoming album "Go Home." "First Cartesians" is a club banger about a shady real estate deal in End Times, California. "Square Peg Steady" is a portentous graveyard-boogie blues about shrinking agricultural biodiversity.
lyrics
We know what you want
We know what you need
If you're coming to us
Then you're fixing for seed
We're Square Peg-Ready
Gonna bring you up to speed
Our threads are going hard
Wherever they're sewn
We'll take you yard by yard
And sue you out of your home
Cause it says "Square Peg-Ready"
On the field you owned
Jump down, turn around
Square Peg Steady Going
Jump down, turn around
Pick yourself a bail of hay
Jump down, turn around
Square Peg Steady Going
Jump down, turn around
Pick yourself a bail today
You can never get out
The death spiral you're in
The horizon is parched
As the famine sets in
We're Square Peg-Ready
You're bones and skin
With our wares multiplying
The tragedy is staged
You'll make the maces and their potatoes
Look like King Henry the 8th
We're Square Peg-Ready
And you're digging your grave
