Cartoon Swing by Gomotion Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've stained your mind with ink
Brought your life to the brink
More than you think
With just a little swing
We'll get the ink thing back in sync
Fire it up, get the reel in place
Roll the clip of your demise
Play it frame by frame
Snap back to the past
Where the sheep songs play all day
You have no idea who you're messin' with
I'm the double-horned shell of a demon
Who's come out to find a friend
Oh, this maze of lost dreams will never end
Once you've cleaned up this inky mess
Soon you'll see me for who I am
[Chorus]
Don't go apologisin'
There's nowhere to throw your lies in
This scene is energizing
Play that banjo, now let's dive in!
Hear that violin fill the hallway
Our little world has gone turned and sideways
Don't forget what your old pal said
Fear my world or you'll just end up dead
Cartoons arise
From happy times
The years have gone by
Now you're mine
Follow the trail
I won't let you fail
You saved your skin
But I won't let that
End this horror tale
[Verse 2]
Plunge back into the dark abyss
Deeper than you can imagine
Where the cartoons live
Rain pain on your work
Brainstorm abandonment
Caught in a spider's web
Of scattered animation cells
And trashed concepts
Boris never planned to have
A wrench inside his chest
You have no idea who you're messin' with
You're stuck in the midst of a labyrinth
And I'm waiting at the end
Oh, this maze of lost dreams will never end
You'd better axe your way out of this one
Or you'll never swing again
[Chorus]
Don't go apologisin'
There's nowhere to throw your lies in
This scene is energizing
Play that banjo, now let's dive in!
Hear that violin fill the hallway
Our little world has gone turned and sideways
Don't forget what your old pal said
Fear my world or you'll just end up dead
Cartoons arise
From happy times
The years have gone by
Now you're mine
Follow the trail
I won't let you fail
You saved your skin
But I won't let that
End this horror tale
I've stained your mind with ink
Brought your life to the brink
More than you think
With just a little swing
We'll get the ink thing back in sync
Fire it up, get the reel in place
Roll the clip of your demise
Play it frame by frame
Snap back to the past
Where the sheep songs play all day
You have no idea who you're messin' with
I'm the double-horned shell of a demon
Who's come out to find a friend
Oh, this maze of lost dreams will never end
Once you've cleaned up this inky mess
Soon you'll see me for who I am
[Chorus]
Don't go apologisin'
There's nowhere to throw your lies in
This scene is energizing
Play that banjo, now let's dive in!
Hear that violin fill the hallway
Our little world has gone turned and sideways
Don't forget what your old pal said
Fear my world or you'll just end up dead
Cartoons arise
From happy times
The years have gone by
Now you're mine
Follow the trail
I won't let you fail
You saved your skin
But I won't let that
End this horror tale
