Call Me Trimtab
22 Lyrics

Hydra-headed Thoughts
My thoughts are so complex and varied that they feel like multiple heads on a mythical beast.

Are Making My Eyes Cross
These thoughts are causing me to strain my eyes and feel overwhelmed.

All These Spheres Hypothetical
My thoughts and ideas are abstract and theoretical in nature, without any concrete evidence or application.

Digital Geodesic Domes
My ideas take the form of geometric shapes like digital geodesic domes.

Resembling Chromosomes
These shapes have a resemblance to chromosomes, the genetic material in our cells.

I Moved Into A Dymaxion Dwelling Machine
I have created a new way of living, just as Buckminster Fuller invented the Dymaxion house, an innovative and efficient living space.

And We Keep Inventing Jobs
Society is constantly coming up with new job titles and responsibilities.

And We Keep On Righting Wrongs
We continue to correct and address injustices in society.

See Us Turning Into Stones
As we become more focused on productivity and efficiency, we are losing our humanity and becoming rigid and unyielding.

Now They're All Gone The Do's And Don'ts
Traditional rules and norms are fading away or being replaced.

Not Today Not Today Not Today
I am avoiding taking action or making a decision today, and possibly indefinitely.

How I Love To Put It Off
I find pleasure in procrastination and avoiding responsibility.

How I Love To Be Taken Care Of
I enjoy having others do things for me and take care of me, rather than being self-sufficient.

And Weep Venture Into Polyphasic Sleep
I am emotionally overwhelmed and may resort to unconventional sleep patterns to cope.

Icosahedron I Don't Need To Rest
My ideas and innovations keep me going without the need for rest, symbolized by the complex icosahedron shape.

Have To Do My Best Call Me Trimtab
I am committed to doing my best and making an impact, inspired by Buckminster Fuller's concept of the trimtab - a small but powerful mechanism that can change the course of a large ship.

I'm A Man Of The Future
I am forward-thinking and embrace innovation and change.

Feed Into My Picture
Contributions and ideas from others help shape my vision of the future.

All This Time To Configurate
I have spent a significant amount of time planning and designing my vision for the future.

Draw Figure 8s
I am exploring creative and unconventional paths to reach my goals, symbolized by the figure 8 shape.

Oh No Storm Is Coming
There are challenges and obstacles ahead that I may not be prepared for.

You're Only Becoming
As I face these challenges, I am also growing and evolving as a person.

No One Confronts The Do's And Don'ts
There is a lack of critical examination and questioning of societal norms and expectations.

I Can Do It Too, But..
I have the skills and ability to do what others are doing, but I have different priorities and values.

I'm Set
I am content with my current situation and priorities.

If You Could Only Take The First Step
Making progress and taking action requires starting somewhere, even if it's a small first step.

Icosahedron I Don't Need To Rest
My drive and energy keep me going without the need for rest, symbolized by the complex icosahedron shape.

Have To Do My Best Call Me Trimtab
I am committed to doing my best and making an impact, inspired by Buckminster Fuller's concept of the trimtab - a small but powerful mechanism that can change the course of a large ship.
