The Rebel Black Dot Song o' the Day!


The Aquabats!, "Sequence Erase!" from The Aquabats! vs. the Floating Eye of Death! and Other Amazing Adventures, Vol. 1 (Captain Thumbs Up!)

Commentary: "Sequence Erase!" is the first song on Floating Eye of Death!, & thus it has a certain unresolved quality.
"When time scrambles and it's gone away,
Can you stop to start again?
No time.

"No one will laugh when it strikes,
This diabolic plan to break up all order.
And who holds the key to stop the countdown
Of the global secret combination?

"These heroes changing,
Recognize we've been so undermined
Danger, waking, blind,
But the hands on the clock
Give no room, no thought,
No words (No words!),
No mind (No mind!),
No hate (No hate!),
Sequence Erase, no time (No time!)

"Prolong the wait with hopeless information,
Time and space erase no indication,
Knife in the back, I stagger to the phone,
Who can I call? I'm now complete alone.

"These heroes changing,
Recognize we've been so undermined
Danger, waking, blind,
But the hands on the clock
Give no room, no thought,
No words (No words!),
No mind (No mind!),
No hate (No hate!),
Sequence Erase, no time (No time!)"
