==Description==
According to [[Neil]] in [[Damn Skippy: Commentary|the album's commentary track]], this song was written to cheer up his friends after they were saddened by the results of the [[wikipedia:2004_United_States_presidential_election|2004 United States presidential election]].

==Lyrics==
So what if I’m down? Stuck in reverse.
I look around, it could be worse.
What can I do?
Honestly, I’ve got nothing to offer at all.
Why should I grieve?
Why should I fall?
I’d rather breath, cover my ears, open my eyes and see what appears.

What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
There are days to wake up for. There are dreams to be had.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
There’s a reason I’m freezing at eighty degrees in a summery season:
I’m totally mad.

So, I’ll let it go.
No need to sink now that I know that I can think,
Therefore I am able to choose when I give a damn.
I refuse to be dumb,
This is my niche.
I won’t become misery’s bitch if I can hold apathy under total control.

What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
There are days to wake up for. There are dreams to be had.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
And there’s a reason I’m freezing at eighty degrees in a summery season:
I’m totally mad.

Not a hip hopped, not a heart stopped.
Everybody’s gone stone cold crazy, like a cherry tree chopped.
Maybe Martin Scorsese’s new movie just flopped, or
Maybe some baby in a groovy helicopter.

We do, we do nothing but hold the window shut to keep the worry out.
We never wanna see the daylight fade.
We gotta masquerade to keep the worry out.

But they have ways of making me think.
I can’t blink, can’t drink,
Can’t put up a stink about the rattling battling and the countdown paddling.
The motherland straddling the weaky freak link.

We do, we do nothing but hold the window shut to keep the worry out.
We never wanna see the daylight fade.
We gotta masquerade to keep the worry out.

Imagine a world without the Unabombers, and the Jeffrey Dahmers.
Wouldn’t we be calmer?
Now, of course by “we” I’m only speaking for me,
But it’s easy to assume that other people agree, you see.

We do, we do nothing but hold the window shut to keep the worry out.
We never wanna see the daylight fade.
We gotta masquerade to keep the worry out.

If I, at my own convenience, forget what they say,
I find it easy to focus on living each day.
If I could change it I would, to do what someone else should,
But I believe that the problem is misunderstood.

What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
There are days to wake up for. There are dreams to be had.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
There are days to wake up for. There are dreams to be had.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.
What will happen will happen whether I’m happy or sad.

==Description==
According to [[Neil]] in the album's [[Damn Skippy: Commentary|commentary track]], the song's lyrics have no meaning. More specifically, [[Neil]] states: <blockquote>"Not really much to say about this song, really. You can just, like, read something, maybe, I dunno."</blockquote> He then goes on to talk about how much he likes stripey socks.

==Lyrics==
I love when opportunity knocks.
It rocks the stripes right outta my socks.
I love the world and everything else;
The trampolines and jingling bells.

I’d love to say there’s not a thing I detest.
I’d love to tie a piece of string to the best of what I know and keep it near,
But I won’t.
I’d love to feel devoid of fear,
But I don’t.
And I prefer it that way. I prefer it that way now.

Living, living underneath a rock.
Injuriously curious, the outline drawn in chalk.

I know the words but don’t understand
The karaoke effigy man.
Flamingo legs of yellow and green
Attached to grandma’s sewing machine.

I’d love to say it’s only fair, but it’s not.
I’d love to form a perfect square.
I forgot my love of rolling down the hill on the lawn.
I never noticed it until it was gone.
And I prefer it that way. I prefer it that way now.

Living, living underneath a rock.
Living (Under the catacomb.)
In this (Pile of styrofoam.)
Outline drawn in chalk.

* The intro of this song features a heavily modified sample of ''Don't Laugh (I Love You)'' by Ween.
* [[Neil]] stated in the album's commentary that the original title for this song was Living Underneath a Rock, but he didn't like it and renamed it Flamingo Legs after a lyric in the second verse.

|BPM = 135
}}

'''Idiot Control Now''' is the eighth track on [[Clown Circus]].

==Description==
This song is a cover of 'Idiot Control' from the Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode, '303 - Pod People'. It was originally released on mp3.com in April of 2003, highly likely alongside with [[Fire Motif]]. it is the first of [[Lemon Demon]]'s cover songs, alongside [[Birdhouse In Your Soul]], [[Chu Chu Rocket]], and many others. The lyrics of the song are very cryptic, and likely mean nothing.

==Lyrics==
With the pickle mind we kick the nipple beer
Steady as we go we’re flying over trout
Ghetto down the high way at the speed of light
All I want to feel now is the wind in my eyes.

Sack of monkeys in my pocket
My sister’s ready to go.
Hear the engines roar now (hear the engines roar now)

Idiot control now (idiot control now)
Hideous control now (hear the engines roll now)
Ninny on the road now (ninny on the road now)
Mini in control, wheels on fire, burnin’ rubber tires (rubber tires)
Leery chother rolls now (ee ah ohh…)
Hit it Lesley go now (hit ah go…)
Ninny inches bow now (oh now..)
Pity in a poor boy (poor boy…)
Heedy inches roll, bees on pie, burnin’ rubber tires (uh..)

It stinks.

==Trivia==

*Idiot Control Now is the shortest [[Error|non-intro]] song on [[Clown Circus]], at 2:15. This barely beats out [[Bowling Alley]], which is two seconds longer.
