about
Joy Basu's glitch-hop remix of Magnetic North from Collider's Blowing Shit Up LP (featuring secret backing vox by Matthew Koma)
lyrics
There’s a great big hole in the sky above the North Pole
Opened by a bullet that was fired from the Grassy Knoll
Ripped out wide by the spray of the brain and the blood and the
bone that was something Cobain
And the hole in the sky is a hole into Hell
D. B. Cooper jumped in and he fell and he fell
Now he rots in the silt 23 fathoms down
With a hundred unsinkable ships.
Swing it back and forth until we find magnetic north
Hollow Earth, lit up by a tiny sun
The sun spins around at night; look up, I can prove it now—
Those are not stars, those are Chinese lights
There’s a great big hole in the sky above the North Pole
Opened by a bullet that was fired from the Grassy Knoll
Like a mirror image of a crack in the equator
Full of arsenic, Hawaiian Punch and sewer alligators
And the hollow Earth is a ball of fire tonight
Yeah, the future is bright in this nuclear light
It shines like the Hope diamond
And the hollow Earth overflows with lemon drops
And we’re jumping like bugs in a microwave
Dancing and twitching and why? Because we’re supposed to.
Swing it back and forth until we find magnetic north.
Opened by a bullet that was fired from the Grassy Knoll
Ripped out wide by the spray of the brain and the blood and the
bone that was something Cobain
And the hole in the sky is a hole into Hell
D. B. Cooper jumped in and he fell and he fell
Now he rots in the silt 23 fathoms down
With a hundred unsinkable ships.
Swing it back and forth until we find magnetic north
Hollow Earth, lit up by a tiny sun
The sun spins around at night; look up, I can prove it now—
Those are not stars, those are Chinese lights
There’s a great big hole in the sky above the North Pole
Opened by a bullet that was fired from the Grassy Knoll
Like a mirror image of a crack in the equator
Full of arsenic, Hawaiian Punch and sewer alligators
And the hollow Earth is a ball of fire tonight
Yeah, the future is bright in this nuclear light
It shines like the Hope diamond
And the hollow Earth overflows with lemon drops
And we’re jumping like bugs in a microwave
Dancing and twitching and why? Because we’re supposed to.
Swing it back and forth until we find magnetic north.
