Epic
D.Y.C. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been on the run for many years
I don't really have anything but my beers
Cuz I'm running
From the Idaho potatoes
They're coming to eat my toes
Specifically my toes
Nothing really speaks to them more than toes
They're the only foes
Of the Potato Cannibals
All they eat are P-tatoes
And human toes cuz they kinda look like potato sprouts
All they eat are potatoes and
Human toes cuz they kinda look like potato sprouts
Potato sprouts (Nothing's stopping me)
I can't keep running like this (I can't keep running)
I'm out of shape and tipsy from
All of my beer
That's made from corn and wheat
Not potatoes (Potatoes)
Oh fuck
They're on my fee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-eet (Fee-ee-ee-ee-eet)
I can't even run anymore
They're like quicksand
On my toes (On my toes)
I feel their juices and inside of my shoes (Feel their juices)
In between my toes are potatoes
They are
Gnawing on my toes
That doesn't mean they're not my only foes
Nothing's gonna stop me from
Feeling relief
Feeling your wheat
On my feet
Foot relief
Gotta get that Prilosec
You know how much ribs I eat?
A lot
Yeah
You must really like barbecue sauce
No
Do you eat 'em plain?
No
I cover them with
Mashed potatoes that I killed
That were eatin' my toes
Mashed potatoes I killed and died
One foot was free
So I stepped on them with one foot
I own I have on my right foot
It's not my problem that I could only afford a right boot
I am kinda poor and I fell in a trash chute
Now I kinda smell like rotten eggs
Now I kinda smell like rotten eggs
But I was in there (I was in there)
I found a tube
It had a hole (It had a hole)
And it was planning peek-a-boo with my toes




That's the potatoes (Pikachu)
Peek-a-boo

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of D.Y.C.'s song "Epic" tell a humorous and somewhat absurd story about the singer's escapades and encounters with potato cannibals. The song starts with the singer on the run from the Idaho potatoes, emphasizing their fear of being devoured by these peculiar creatures. The humorous tone is further emphasized when the lyrics highlight that the potato cannibals' preferred meal is not only potatoes but also human toes because they resemble potato sprouts.


As the song progresses, it becomes clear that the singer's frantic attempts to escape are in vain. They are exhausted, intoxicated from consuming beer made from corn and wheat (not potatoes), which adds to the absurdity of the situation. The lyrics humorously convey that the potato cannibals have caught up with the singer, comparing them to quicksand, trapping them in their clutches. The vivid description of feeling the cannibals' juices and the presence of potatoes in their shoes further accentuate the absurdity and serves as a playful exaggeration.


Despite the dire circumstances, the singer still maintains a sense of resilience and humor. They express determination to find relief and invoke the image of feeling wheat (presumably representing comfort or escape) on their feet. The mention of Prilosec, a medicine for heartburn, adds another layer of absurdity to the lyrics, possibly indicating that the singer seeks relief from the bizarre situation they find themselves in.


In the latter part of the song, the singer delves into unrelated tangents, discussing their affinity for ribs and mashed potatoes. These lines serve to maintain the song's light-hearted tone and add to the overall absurdity. The singer's reference to a right boot and their admission of being poor and falling into a trash chute further highlight the ridiculousness of the narrative.


The song concludes with a random reference to a hole in a tube and a playful mention of Pikachu, leaving the listener with a sense of confusion and amusement. Overall, the lyrics of "Epic" offer a whimsical and comical story of an individual's bizarre encounters with potato cannibals, maintaining a lighthearted tone throughout.

Watch entire video before asking questions please 🙏. We explain how we did it, why we did it this way, and why you shouldn't do it yourself in detail. Thanks so much, enjoy 🙂

RH2RACING

Did you try to mix the pearl directly with the liquid black?

Jenny Watson

Excellent results! Like a lady in a beautiful sparkling evening gown.

1 liter of Musou Black costs 18,000 Japanese Yen or roughly 180 dollars. The previous video said they ordered 8 liters.
