There's a Platypus Controlling Me
Dad?
Oh, hi, Vanessa!
Dad, what are you doing?
Well I'll be honest I don't really understand
But I fell down this hill and I got glue on my hands
Now I got records on my fingers
What?
Records on my fingers
I got records on my fingers and I just can't stop
Don't stop
I can't stop I got a platypus controlling me
What?
I got a platypus controlling me
Now let me sum it up
It was a strange set of circumstances
Strange set of circumstances?
I fell down the hill, I got glue on my hands now I got records on my fingers
And I just can't stop
Don't stop, don't stop
Well I would if I was able
There's a platypus controlling me he's underneath the table
There's a platypus controlling him? What?
Oh I get it, platypus is a metaphor for whatever is keeping you down
Corporations are a platypus
The government's a platypus
Your teacher is a platypus
My teacher is a panda
Society's a platypus
My parents are a platypus
The media's a platypus
It's all just propaganda
We've all got platypus controlling us
No just me
We've all got platypus controlling us
I'd stop if I was able
We've all got platypus controlling us
I'm not speaking metaphorically
The platypus controlling me is underneath the table
Oh wait, no, he's gone!
Hey! There's no platypus controlling me
There's no platypus controlling me!
(Cheers)
