Prismatic Spray (The Tinder Date)

Lyrics

Well, it was midway through the 2nd chain-lift Of Big Thunder Mountain Railroad where I turned to my Tinder date, flush with Excitement of illumination Backlit by a prismatic spray of drones Adjacent to an audio-animatronic goat I said, "The intellectual depth that leads To wisdom and happiness has been Discarded in favour of shallow Forms of reflection and recall" She bit her lip and she took my hand As we crossed from Frontier to Adventureland Heft of a breast strains against shirt Her legs disappear into the curve of that skirt Long, lithe, and lean in this panoptic sprawl of delight An abnegation of the difficult choices in life We see just what we wanna see Believe with total certainty By the time you realize you're in the abyss The more you try to shine a light, the darker it gets Destiny manifests in every dark ride Until, eventually, you, too, agree it was all justified We see just what we wanna see Believe in any old fantasy Within these earthen berms The architecture reassures Nostalgic, safe, and warm A mushroom cloud appears above the Matterhorn Her hair is in flames My flesh melts from the bone Our skeletal remains Left in a licentious pose The inner workings of the Machinery is exposed It really wasn't so bad As far as Tinder dates go We see just what we wanna see Believe In whatever helps you sleep
