Epic
c. arango Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
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
The song "Epic" by C. Arango is a satirical take on the concept of potato cannibalism. The lyrics chronicle the experiences of a protagonist who has been on the run for many years from Idaho potatoes who are coming for his toes. The lyrics are comedic in nature and highlight the absurdity of the situation. The singer, who has nothing but his beers, is out of shape and unable to outrun the potatoes. The potato cannibals are specifically interested in toes, as they resemble potato sprouts. The singer's only source of relief is in feeling his wheat on his feet.
