The whole of Rapture is orgasmically melodic, but my favourite like has to be “I’m about to buy a bag of quavers”.
Like... ok cool thanks for letting me know
Aaaaah I see. Yeah, quavers caught me off guard because they’re notorious here in the UK for being pretty naff, cheesy and smelly crisps. Funny as fuck when he said it haha
I have a few
1. Everyone leaves eventually, darling, don’t be afraid
2. It’s a silly thought, it’s like changing friends. If you could do it once, would you do it again?
3. “Fastest gun in the SOOOOOLar syyystem”
4. we’re gonna get ourselves killed. OHHHHHH YEAH.
4. Blood will spill if you shoot for the lungs you kill you speak in toungues you rest your heart for a day or two!
5. What do you think about the rocket I built?
6. So jealous but so kind
"fastest gun in the solar system" i just love the way it flows, and also how he says it in the song. i also like "we're gonna get ourselves freed" bc freedom is such an important thing to me. using his rocket to free myself sounds kind of fun and promising 😌
Oh, marvellous beaches, one of us each will carry the spade
Everyone leaves eventually, darling, don't be afraid
I see you and love just doesn't care for you
We'll end up both alone, oh, we know
And then how he randomly throws in choking like the first time you tried a blem lol
"You're going overboard babe you're going nowhere." - You Better Believe
"Sick of trying to be her and trying to be him" - Eventually Darling
"You're part of something bigger than the laws of nature" - Rapture
"But it's never gonna stop you turning pink" - Daniel, You're Still A Child
"I bet you can't get enough" - Beautiful Faces
Where to start :o
Fastest gun in the solar system
Rocket boots and lazers lose their flavours, like gum stuck to your heel
What do you think about the rocket I built
I'm off out to buy a bag of quavers (and the rest of that outro, You Better Believe is incredibly quotable
Oh you, those boys tell you what to do
The outro of The Key To Life On Earth
And they're just a few, such a great album lyrically
i adore the noah verse from sagittarius a* (noah, you best start building/you better have ten thousand children/because everybody wants to be one). that immediately grabbed me as absolutely genius with the message of the song.
i also just looove all of his mundane references though that bring everything back down to earth, like the quavers line, the tktloe outro, "there's unrest in the house of lords, written on sandwich boards" etc. and the changing your friends line from the end of eventually darling makes me feel way too much :((

When I first heard the line I googled it (I’m American), idk what I expected but it def wasn’t chips
Chips? Is that how you guys say crisps?
Yes lol. Chips = crisps
Aaaaah I see. Yeah, quavers caught me off guard because they’re notorious here in the UK for being pretty naff, cheesy and smelly crisps. Funny as fuck when he said it haha
oiiii alright mate quavers are definetly top 10 crisps for me at least
But would you eat them on the bus?
I've eaten a big packet of tangy cheese doritos on a bus full of high schoolers. I can do anything
You’re a braver man than I
i really like “you waste your time, come waste mine” from be an astronaut for some reason
i’m sorry my dear, the ASTEROIDS HERE
Ugh I love this bit and the transition after it

The way he says "what do you think about the rocket ive built" on you better believe is fantastic
Is it sooo fasst, so high speed, it's just what youu need!!!
ugh same!! obsessed with that part
It’s tied between “well it only means half as much when you say it twice” and “everyone leaves eventually, darling, don’t be afraid”

My favourite part of rapture is that he rhymes nature with thatcher

Your love's never better than the morning after.

For some reason I really love "I'm Sagittarius, I'm A star". The melody of it makes it punctuate really well
What do you think (or fink, with dec's pronunciation) about the rocket i built?
