Projectile Comet
Secret Band Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So sad the way you sit this one... out
Must have synonyms, must be genuine, bat thwack medicine, coaching a leopard
Egg yolk citizen, bird fuck specimen, dump truck ligament, of prison bar mitzvah
Why won't it go, Light my flow, grow a road, slopin mode,
Undulating curtain glow
Plaque laced teeth weep till they worn
Evolution help me cope
Black shade sheep creep through the dome
Blowing out fire cones
Extra part goes here
It gets it when it needs it
It needs it when it needs it
Obliferous, gentery,
Smecterbice, ahpurgikaw
Combuchinee, arkinade, shargenol, bergentibrock
Squirmin in the camper, grabbin furry eyes, lettin out the scampi, bourbon dick no rise
Put em in the slammer, put em in the fire, fresh roasted, head in thighs
Put me in another place where I can wave at passing stars, and ask the one's who's held responsible, why planets spin like art.
Drop an obelisk on top of men and teach them how to carve, a machine that sees the flaws to make circles out of shards. The invention.
I believe in reading, no I believe in shopping, no I believe in eating every single topping
Slit wrist, suck dick, drink piss, saved by idols
Why won't it go, Light my flow, grow a road, slopin mode
Undulating curtain glow
Plaque laced teeth weep till they worn
Crack its shell, coat it chrome, grope a node, broke the code
Evolution help me cope
Black shade sheep creep through the dome
Blowing out fire cones
Put me in another place where I can wave at passing stars, and ask the one's who's held responsible, why planets spin like art.
Drop an obelisk on top of men and teach them how to carve, a machine that sees the flaws to make circles out of shards.
Swirling into seven rows, elements ascension, soaking through the zone, facet of the syndrome, sickness in the head, the patterns dead, the light is red, the path is known, crack weight, black shade sheep creep through the dome, broke.
"Projectile Comet" is a winding and surreal track by Secret Band that features seemingly disconnected lines and images put together in a stream-of-consciousness style. The first stanza talks about people who block others from success, dreaming of their own big break. It then quickly shifts to bizarre, nonsensical phrases that seem to be about combining different words and ideas. The second stanza starts with a repetition of the question, "Why won't it go?" and suggests a longing to break free or find a new path. The lines about putting an obelisk on top of men and teaching them how to carve imply a desire to create something monumental, while the final lines of the song talk about sickness and death.
Overall, "Projectile Comet" appears to be a song about feeling stuck and dissatisfied with the world, and desiring something different or transcendent. The surreal, fragmented nature of the lyrics serves to convey this sense of disconnection and confusion.

Decaying teeth cry until they're ruined, breaking through a tough exterior, trying to understand something complex, evolution helping deal with life, dark thoughts taking over, exhaling smoke
It gets it when it needs it, It needs it when it needs it
Something only gets what it requires when the time comes

Theory- Will Swan told Jon that if he toned down his lyrical stupidity on Acceptance Speech that he'd give Jon a band where he can rant about whatever he wants.
@jng24
This band was created during Jonny Craig era.

Weeaboo Destroyer Will Swan said in an interview that Jon Mess is his favorite screamer both lyrically and vocally.

"I believe in reading, no, I believe in shopping"
I see what you did there :D
@NMGian
Damn; Matt Mingus is such an underrated drummer.
@JiuJitsuTrashcan
I agree, Matt's drumming in this song is flawless, and he mixes it up throughout the course of the song. So awesome.
@familiewoudstravogel2555
Nick M haha, matt doesn't drum in secret band because otherwise it would sound too much like dgd.
