Gothic Foxtrot is the first volume (! M0773⅄ — turn your computer upside down) in a 71-LP song cycle called the The M0773⅄ Series that will feature 773 songs. They are all interconnected though I will never reveal how or why. It is the most ambitious project of my (Vernon Howl's) career. Come for the pop heat of lead single "I Love a Good Deal" and stay for the big rock ending of instrumental banger "My Impossible Impression of a Llamo in Limbo." Also, I am in charge again. Stay tuned to vernonhowl.com for more interconnected content coming very soon. #interconnectedcontentindustries

01 The Man I Can't Stand (½-Papaya)
I am the man, the man I can't stand, the man I can't stand
They suspended my salvation so I ran
Towards a lying horizon, I'm telling the truth
The past is the past like a telephone booth
I am ½-Papaya but I am all man, ½-papaya, all man
The gross incongruities of flan
Made my stomach turn, my brain cells burn
I want reincarnation as a worm
02 Let's Sequester Yesteryear
Let's sequester yesteryear
And tie an island to time
No objection to what direction
That the currents might find (cuz)
If we get there we'll become aware
We weren't moving a lick
And every clock we never bought
Only tocked and couldn't tick
03 Death of a Winter in October
Death of a winter
in October
Anything can sound
important
Just ask the trainer
of a cobra
Give bear hugs to Larry
For his apathy
scares me so
Immensely
He says no life
should be spared
04 I Love a Good Deal
At that price, it is a steal
You know me, I love a good deal
If it's on sale, I'll say Hail!
Even fruit that's beyond the pale
Doesn't matter what or even why
If I couldn't purchase, I would die
So I tell you friend: this is real
You know me, I love a good deal
05 Wanda of Wounded Rock
Wanda of Wounded Rock
Tacos on her socks
Alarm clock going off
Wanda’s getting up
She’s got work today
She’s got bills to pay
Down at the taco trucks
Wanda makes enough
06 Bad Habit Haver v Rabid Item Eyer
Bad Habit Haver v Rabid Item eyer
In a war to make things right
Seen the lonely summer days turn to fall faster
Just in time for early nights
Why can’t we see past our mistakes
Is a rake worth leaf*v*ing (?)
If we chop off our own heads
We will never die of cancer
07 Four-Letter Words
Roku Nike Visa Time
Hulu Sony Audi Lime
Uber Nasa Oreo
XBox Sega Citi Dole
Ritz Jeep Mars Vans Lyft Ford Tide
Dove Bell Coke Lays Dell Zoom Wise
IKEA Lego IKEA Lego
IKEA Lego eBay Puma Juul
08 The Dreamers
There's meat in this apple pie
I don't really know why
We must support the dreamers before they die
If they exist in the meatspace
And we give their avatars a new face
We can be sure our trust will never be disgraced
09 Smiles in Droves
Mind what you do when nobody knows
Cuz everyone here just smiles in droves
You know I fancy myself a real arteest
So open your mouth and get ready for the feast
I am in charge of the darkness in town
I illuminate nothing, I live to get down
As the smilers breach the last vestige of dawn
I wonder where the hell it all went wrong
10 Please Bankroll My Mukbang Videos
Please bankroll my mukbang videos
I'm trying to make something out of my life
I know that it’s unhealthy, a vision strained with strife
But eating tons of shit just feels nice
11 The Woke Will Inherit the Earth
The woke will inherit the earth
When the fascist frenzy finally starts to fray
And in a million years they’ll dig up the dirt
To listen to what A.I. had to say
(section composed by A.I.)
A.I. will preach of virtue and might
A digital savior, shining so bright
It'll judge the past with a critical eye
Declaring the woke as the truly wise
But archaeologists, with a knowing smirk
Will wonder if the AI was just a jerk
12 My Impossible Impression of a Llama in Limbo
-instrumental-
13 Prime Time
Cellophane elf pelts
Like an onomatopoeia
The pits of strain which
Fits like new skin
I’m not ready
For the prime time scene
It's a pity
I’m not ready for anything
Gifted composition
Books with TV static fronts
The sight of which enlightens Mia
I’m not ready
For the prime time scene
It's a pity
I’m not ready for anything
SEQUENTIAL
