Nervous Young Inhumans

You should've seen my cursive back then

Every letter was above the line

My P's and Q's raised their stems

So nothing crossed beneath

I'm a little better now

You galvanistic young boy

You galvanistic young man

You galvanistic young inhuman

You understand

Art gets what it wants and art gets what it deserves

Most people are jokes, but you're so real

Most of the time that I use the word "you"

Well, you know that I'm mostly singin' about you

You swore you'd never use the face that your ex invented

So let's meet up in Uncanny Valley

You galvanistic young boy

You galvanistic young man

You galvanistic young inhuman

You understand

You'll get what you want and you'll get what you deserve

You'll get what you want and you'll get what you deserve

Earlier in the song I used the term galvanistic

And galvanism is the concept of the absolute scientific theory

That there is a kind of electricity flowing through our bloodstreams

And that was our life force

I used the term because I came across it in Mary Shelley's Frankenstein

And that book is sort of an exploration of the theme

Of creating a character and making up a person

So, I use the term Galvanistic to elude to that book

As a sort of a symbol as how I like created you as a character

I'm pretending to know a lot more about you than I actually do

And also to refer to the fact that I'm fall, falling in love

With the characters you've created

And your body of work

This is the part of the song where I start to regret writing it
