about

This song started as an experiment in one of Tyson's "mr_computer_" song writing streams, back in early March. Throughout the year we'd go back and add a little here, delete a little there, and slowly it manifested into this strangely compelling song you hear today. The song really evolved when we brought in our friend Jeff Gregory to add some vocal harmonies to the chorus. He also played guitar on this one! Please enjoy!

Mixed and Mastered by the one and only Josh2Hager of Devo!

lyrics

Social Anxiety
---
did you say something
better left unsaid?
are you gonna let them get
inside of your head?

will it plague your mind
for the rest of the night?
living rent free
for the rest of your life?

have you taken time
to review your file?
will you take a moment
to perfect your smile

have you made a point
of refining your style?
do you own a shirt
with a crocodile

are they thinking about me
they must be talking about me
I think they they're thinking about me
I see them talking about me

did you say something
better left unsaid?
are you gonna let them get
inside of your head?

will it plague your mind
for the rest of the night?
living rent free
for the rest of your life?

have you taken time
to review your file?
will you take a moment
to perfect your smile

have you made a point
of refining your style?
do you own a shirt
with a crocodile

i'm alright, airtight, up all night,
and I can't leave the house
i'm alright, airtight, up all night,
and I can't leave the house
i'm alright, airtight, up all night,
and I can't leave the house
i'm alright, airtight, up all night,
and I can't leave the house
