FOG Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You haven't really tried something 'til you've quit
You haven't really tried something 'til you've quit
Give it up for the quitters
Give it up for the quitters
Give me back, call in sick, drive hours
You owe it to the azur, drive hours, give me back
(har dee har har, start start the car)
He's got in his hands an electrical box
Got in his hands an electrical box
I've got this one about luggage that I can not bring to paper
(har de har har start start the car)
The lyrics to FOG's song "Glory" present the idea that quitting something can be a form of trying, and even lead to success. The lines "You haven't really tried something 'til you've quit" and "Give it up for the quitters" suggest that, contrary to popular belief, quitting can be a courageous act that allows space for growth and change. The repetition of "Give me back, call in sick, drive hours" emphasizes the idea that taking a risk and making a change is worth the effort.
The line "You owe it to the azur" is interesting as "Azur" is a French word meaning blue, but it could also refer to the blue sky or the ocean. The color blue is often associated with freedom, depth, and inspiration. This could imply that we owe it to ourselves to follow our dreams and take a chance on something, even if it means quitting something else.
The lines "D-why-I-n-g w-a-t-see-h be-a-t-t-e-are-I-e-s / He's got in his hands an electrical box" are intentionally misspelled and intentionally obscure. The singer seems to be playing with language and nonsense, suggesting that sometimes meaning is not necessary for a song to be impactful. The image of an electrical box being held by the hands adds to the surreal and mysterious atmosphere of the song.
Finally, the line "I've got this one about luggage that I cannot bring to paper" is a curious one. It could mean that the singer has an idea or emotion that they cannot fully express or articulate. It could also suggest a feeling of being weighed down or burdened by something, like emotional baggage.

When it came to music, poor little Timmy could never do anything right. They gave him a horn; he blew in the wrong end. They gave him a guitar; he made feedback. They sat him at a piano; he opened it up and plucked at the chords. So discouraged was little Timmy by the taunts of his peers that one day, he gave up playing music altogether. Then, one sunny afternoon, he stumbled upon a record by this guy named Fog. Fog didn't necessarily play his instruments right, either.
Sure, Timmy had heard people scratching records, but he'd never heard anyone doing it like this. It was strange, almost haphazard in a way. The music fell somewhere in between Christian Marclay and Kid Koala-- more a collage of strange sounds sometimes set to guitar or bass than the rhythm-happy scratchfests that comprise most traditional DJ records. Fog seemed more interested in seeing how many strange sounds he could make with his turntables than in keeping a rhythm or showboating. And yet, there was something to the chaos that sounded totally planned, completely sculpted. Timmy was amazed to hear someone show the same utter disregard for convention his very classmates had convinced him was so wrong.
Fog became a catalyst for Timmy. He soon realized that there was no such thing as "a right way" to play an instrument, and that there were others out there who believed this, too. Soon he would discover other turntable wizards-- folks like Christian Marclay and Otomo Yoshihide-- and he grew even more awestruck. A year later, little Timmy, slightly less little and much less melancholy, found himself surrounded by strange albums, and had even taken up the turntable himself. True, Fog wasn't quite so amazing now that he'd heard all these other turntablists, but it still had its moments and he certainly couldn't deny that it played the role of catalyst in his life, or that it was-- in many ways-- responsible for his trajectory. <<<pitchfork album review, yeah i didn't write that, copy+paste 🥸
