Inch Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There was a time when 4 distinct human species coexisted on earth
Cows kill more people annually than sharks
It takes about 42 days for a baby duck to fully develop
There is an estimated 4,000 tigers living in the wild
The blue ladybug’s name is Tom
In the year 1951 the USSR sent a dog into space.
The scorpion is a part of the arachnid family
A lion’s roar can be heard from up to 5 miles away
George Washington died December 14th 1799
Head to the coordinates 45.2955° N, 93.1675° W
Search for the blue ladybug
Cross the threshold and await further instructions
Well I went down to the ladybug cult
I met lots of friends at the ladybug cult
We murdered a dog
Well I went down to the ladybug cult
I met lots of friends at the ladybug cult
We ate human fingers
Well I went down to the ladybug cult
I met lots of friends at the ladybug cult
I tried catfish
Well I went down to the ladybug cult
I met lots of friends at the ladybug cult
We're starting the next crusade
Starting the next crusade
We're gonna murder
Every Infidel we find
Well I went down to the ladybug cult
I met lots of friends at the ladybug cult
YEAH!
The lyrics to this song are a bit nonsensical and seem to jump between random facts and a storyline about joining a cult. The first few lines highlight some interesting facts about our world, such as the abundance of trees compared to stars in the galaxy, the coexistence of multiple human species at one time, and the surprising statistic that cows kill more people than sharks. These facts seem to emphasize the vastness and complexity of our universe and the unpredictability of our own existence within it.
The next few lines shift into more specific animal-related facts, including the development of baby ducks, the estimated number of tigers in the wild, the name of a blue ladybug (Tom, which is actually not true), and the sending of a dog into space by the USSR in 1951. These facts seem to continue the theme of highlighting various bits of trivia about our natural world, although they also seem somewhat random and disconnected from one another.
The final lines of the song shift into a darker and more surreal storyline about joining a "ladybug cult" and engaging in various violent and disturbing activities, including murdering a dog, eating human fingers, and starting a crusade to kill infidels. It's unclear whether this storyline is meant to be taken seriously or if it's meant to be a metaphor for something else entirely, but it certainly adds an eerie and unsettling element to the song.
Overall, the lyrics to this song are certainly thought-provoking and may leave listeners with more questions than answers. Whether you interpret the song as a commentary on the randomness of the world around us, a warning about the dangers of blindly following charismatic leaders, or simply a bizarre and surreal piece of art, there's no denying that the song is memorable and unlike anything else out there.
