  I’ve been eating fruit  I’ve been sleeping well when I can  And now I feel so good  I knew that I would  And now I’m working hard   My whole life is a montage  Leave some tips in my crib, feels so cool to be this big  But oh no here’s the gravy  The dark horizon huge in size  And everything is changing, my spaceship’s started crying    Welcome back to black hole baby  So congrats you’ve earned this trophy  Welcome back to black hole honey  Hold my hand cause the end is coming    Now I’m back to good  Try keeping up if you can  It gets better too  And so I just accept it like  Yeah the world is ending  And space and time is bending  But hold the phone, hey  We’re floating in the gravy  The dark horizon huge in size  And everything is changing  My spaceship’s started dying    Welcome back to black hole baby  So congrats you’ve earned this trophy  Welcome back to black hole honey  Hold my hand cause the end is coming

Good morning, welcome to the channel  I hope you can handle the tutorial  This episode we shrink the world  You take a marble like this and make it really small    Yeah I’m picking up the planet in the palm of my hand  Roll it in my fingers, make it tasty as hell  Spin the golden record, c’mon gimme your worst    Hello from the children of planet Earth    It’s a world wide pop  And all the people jump up when they feel it glowing  Intergalactic shock  And all the aliens jump when they feel it glowing    It’s a world wide pop    Earth people need to get along, ‘cos here the aliens come, let’s hope they’re super chill  Fast forward to the end of time, as you can see, not as bad as we had thought it’d be    Yeah I’m picking up the planet in the palm of my hand  Roll it in my fingers, make it tasty as hell  Spin the golden record, c’mon gimme your worst    Hello from the children of planet Earth    It’s a world wide pop  And all the people jump up when they feel it glowing  Intergalactic shock  And all the aliens jump when they feel it glowing    It’s a world wide pop

On & On 03:10
Am I insane or is it now the normal way?  Reason’s out, just hope and pray  And switch off till it goes away  And kill my brain  It’s all I crave, I’d rather have a stupid day  Instead of feeling like a fake  An afterthought in the ashtray    So this goes on and on  Yeah it goes on and on  No more space, hit replay  Yeah it goes on and on    Another time, the neighbors acting like we're fine  Had a party, paid the fine  Man it kept me up all night  Just having fun  What’s so wrong, celebrating like we won  Sucks we’re still on season one  I guess we’ll fake it till we make it    Then it goes on and on  Yeah it goes on and on  The latest craze, can’t relate  Yeah it goes on and on    Feeling sick, the weekend never seems to end  As if the circumstance all changed  Set a fire to your sage    So this goes on and on  Yeah it goes on and on  It wouldn’t die, even when I tried     And it goes on and on

Teenager, teenager, I’m gonna grow up and be a teenager    Had enough of growing up  Keep making your mistakes, do misbehave  And by the way, we’re all the same, no need to feel ashamed, so hey  How does it feel to be relieved of your old school rock-n-roll ways?  It ain’t too bad, but I just gotta ask, how come I’m feeling oh so sad  Even though I’m singing oh oh oh    Teenager, teenager, I’m gonna grow up and be a teenager    I’m growing up and oh it feels so great  Going ooh ooh baby ooh ooh ooh  I’m growing up, I swear it’s just a phase  Going ooh ooh baby ooh ooh ooh    Got no time for class  Today we learn about the past and the present and the future fading so damn fast  So what? Just gimme a break and wish me happy birthday  Happy birthday to your old school rock’n’roll ways  I’ll hook you up to my magical machine  Get in line and come on in  Everybody shrinking uh oh oh    Teenager, teenager, I’m gonna grow up and be a teenager    I’m growing up and oh it feels so great  Going ooh ooh baby ooh ooh ooh  I’m growing up, I swear it’s just a phase  Going ooh ooh baby ooh ooh ooh    Teenager, teenager, I’m gonna grow up and be a teenager

It’s raining  It’s raining today    Giving up has never felt better  I’m logging out forever, tho I’m still your spell checker, keep  Jerking off into the night crying trying to find it  The answer it just wasn’t there (This fucking thing’s stupid!)  I wonder if I’ll ever be a cult boyfriend  Ended up as a poser I dunno since when  Get me a cyborg grilled cheese sandwich machine    It’s raining  It’s raining today    Close the door, otaku inside the store  Still searching for devil fruit and provided there's something more  I'll start my tournament arc next week, levitate and catch me, looking out the window but the rain isn't a blessing  It's hard to the right thing, when flying on the west wing  Like did it work? I go berserk & is it worth investing?   Like Elon with no systems, or Matrix with no Fishburne  I see the clouds, it’s looking down, so tell me what you did learn?    It’s raining  It’s raining today    You go clip clop through the village in the fine carriage drawn by two horses  Clippity clop clop clop go the hooves  Drippity drop drop rain on the roofs  I was halfway through my pack, you was halfway through your act  And that’s that  Do horses do tricks when pony’s on a lead  One sound, two pistols, two shots  Rain drops    It’s raining  It’s raining today

Flying 02:49
It’s only a pipe dream  Get lost in the hellish galaxy  Suck it in for your spacesuit  When the planet welcomes your debut    Get away from the groundhog, prologue nights  About time that you took your own advice  Get away in a second, it’s alright  Here they come, beam ‘em up, like it’s a satellite    Gave up on tryna be hot stuff  Turns out it was easy to overcome  Horizon’s starting to rise and  We're flying, we’re flying  No time for putting up flyers  Queued up “Eye of the Tiger”  Horizon’s starting to rise and  We're flying, we're flying    Get away from the groundhog, prologue nights  About time that you took your own advice  Get away in a second, it’s alright  Here they come, beam ‘em up, like it’s a satellite    Couldn’t wait to get outta this town  I know I’m late, but thought I’d come around  I think we make a pretty good team  But I won’t keep your fingernails clean     So you won it but lost it  Fuck the plot, what you need’s a brand new plan  Can we make a commitment, well  Tough luck, you know you want it anyway    Gave up on tryna be hot stuff  Turns out it was easy to overcome  Horizon’s starting to rise and  We're flying, we're flying  No time for putting up flyers  Queued up Eye of the Tiger  Horizon’s starting to rise and  We're flying, we're flying

Solar system, help me out  They voted, now I don’t belong  Can you believe it?  I look to you for guidance, frightened and guilty  Will you take my request tonight  And help me out    I’ve never felt this lonely  Come on and hold me  Solar system, help me out  Hold me with your velvet shiny planets  Solar system help me out    Gaze into the darkness of endless space  Time curves and twirls, shattering one’s ego  Changing is forever     Cool, you went insane  What’s the weather like in your brain?  You’re saying that I’m your last chance  Shaking your fist into the sky  You seem to think I’m a god or  Something really grand and gold  Well maybe if you make it here alone, I’ll help you out    I’ve never felt this lonely  Come on and hold me  Solar system, help me out  Hold me with your velvet shiny planets  Solar system help me out

Don’t mind me, I’m just a fruit fly that’s floating on by, just floating on  I can’t even look you in the eye  And the world’s spinning round and round  Into the sun    Download code to binge space drama  Awkward interaction with your brother  Late night chat with anyone you wanna  Discord for an hour  Sleep is sweet-n-sour saying    If you see me ‘round  Maybe say wassup    Don’t mind me, I’m just a fruit fly that’s floating on by, just floating on  I can’t even look you in the eye  And the world’s spinning round and round  Into the sun    Squid pro quo, yes or no  I’ve got too many sick records  Eyes on the prize, I think I’m getting tired  Why don’t we bake some cookies  Make it sad-n-sticky saying    If you see me ‘round  Maybe say wassup    Don’t mind me, I’m just a fruit fly that’s floating on by, just floating on  I can’t even look you in the eye  And the world’s spinning round and round  Into the sun 
9.
Don’t worry, it won’t take that long  Just stay calm and get a drink  We can’t even do a damn thing  I turned off the airplane mode  And felt a sense of control  It’s time I put my phone down    Put down your phone  Just put down your phone    It’s been like a year now right?  Did you put on a few pounds?  I bet you got paid so much  Well…  Trust me, just put down your phone    Put down your phone  Just put down your phone    As you’re listening to this  On your shitty little dumb device  Jeff Bezos is making 3k a second  Improbable, I know  So get a proper look at yourself  Do you really need all this  Extra measure of self care?    Put down your phone  (It's time to put it down  When it's late at night   You won't get a reply  So try putting it down  Cos nothing you type’s  Gonna change my mind)

Could I be any more of a cliché for you baby?  It’s been a long time coming all my friends already know, I think I’ve found a new low  But there ain’t no harm, in a little bit of self-sabotaging, so  Maybe I could show off some skin for the honeys and see how it feels     I’m feeling so crushed  I’m feeling so candy cane, lollipop, sugary sweet  Honestly I hate it but I don’t mind a bit  I’m feeling so crushed  I should get going to pretty soon, ’cos I got a lot more to say    Feeling so delicious  Candy cane, lollipop    Stuck in a sitcom, shoulda never been pitched in the first place  I really don’t get why they keep renewing it, like what’s the point? It’s a waste of time  The council told me that the greens are good for my well-being  I’m feeling flossy and free, here I’ll show you what I mean, take a seat, right next to me    I’m feeling so crushed  I’m feeling so candy cane, lollipop, sugary sweet  Honestly I hate it but I don’t mind a bit  I’m feeling so crushed  I should get going to pretty soon, ’cos I got a lot more to say    Feeling so delicious, feeling so sweet  Candy cane, lollipop    It’s a healthy distraction from the shitty lives that we both live  Can’t be that bad to make up a man to fall deep in love with, oh  I’ve got some bad ideas in full screen high definition    I’m feeling so crushed    Before you go, real quick  Feeling so delicious    Candy cane, lollipop, sugary sweet  Honestly I hate it but I don’t mind a bit

Oh Come On 02:31
I’m pretty busy and I have to leave but  Soon enough I’ll be back in Boston  Take the T all the way to Fenway  I think it’s time to hit up Chipotle  Melatonin, knock me out  It’s a foreign country and I’m all freaked out  Need more serotonin, ramp me up  Just go to sleep, like    Oh come on  Turn it off    Don’t pay attention to my sighs  Here’s what I want from you tonight    Orono time, everybody shut up  You should be happy that I even showed up  You should be happy I got out of my pod  Convinced myself that I’m a damn fraud but  I know I deserve it  You all cheer and it makes it worth it  Step off stage feeling almost perfect  Then I say goodbye but    Oh come on  Turn it off    Don’t pay attention to my size  Here’s what I want from you tonight   
12.
So long, porcelain, it’s unfortunate I have to leave  Heads up, I’m heading south, no one knows how long I’ll be gone    Before it all starts back up again    I’ve heard enough metaphors  Drink your mint milk tea and leave    Cook some eggs, pay the rent, I’m content on a Sunday    Then it cracks, what a shame, seeing a good one go to waste  Take me back, Columbus, it’s the best day we ever had  So if you    Leave, I’m a mess like an infinite jest  I’ll have to start over  Take in some H2O and cry a waterfall  It’s no big dealio    Before it all starts back up again    Don't let the colony collapse, no  Cos there's no turning back now  Don't let the colony collapse, no  Cos we'll never get it back    Before it all starts back up again 
13.
Yeah it’s true, I wanted what you had, ‘cos I saw it on your Instagram  And oh my god, I wanted everything  Yeah and everything falls apart except for us    Except for us, except for us  Everything falls apart except for us  Everything falls apart    Hey there dude, thanks for the edibles  We should all hang out after the show  And Superorganism, everyone  Whoa, everything fell apart except for us    Except for us, except for us  Everything falls apart except for us  Everything falls apart 

about

Superorganism return with their second album World Wide Pop in July, their first new music since 2018’s self-titled debut.

Blasting back with thirteen tracks that explore the infinite versus the intimate, taking in friendship, time, connectedness, and the universe; World Wide Pop contemplates the contradiction of being hopeful and curious when faced with relentless consumerism and overwhelming noise. However choosing optimism, Superorganism believe in the power of pop music and all the things it can do. World Wide Pop bridges the personal and existential whilst delivering a bag full of tunes laced with deadpan humour.

World Wide Pop also brings in an international set of collaborators including Stephen Malkmus, CHAI, Pi Ja Ma, Dylan Cartlidge & legendary musician and actor Gen Hoshino.
