๐ Lyrics
And it was the only time where we actually
I was on the phone, you were on the phone
And Jack and I were standing there
And it was the only time I actually ever
Most of the lyrics that I have contributed I was typing
But we actually were, um, kicking around the thing
And the idea of the one-upsmanship
Between the "textmergency" and the "textastrophe"
Came out of that conversation
And once we had that kind of general idea
Then it was like, "Guys, go, go finish this"
That's another case where you guys smartly
Don't let the audience get ahead of it
You know, the joke of "textmergency" was established
And we kind of said, "Let's do this early-'80s rock thing"
But then by the time we even get to the first chorus
There's another joke coming at you of like
They're arguing over what the phrase is and which one's catchier
And that's, that's, I think that's really, you know
That's, that's a smart thing that I don't always do
I'm sometimes conservative and like
"You can have one joke and you must support it with," you know
It's like your thesis statement
And you guys immediately are willing to kind of take a left turn
And there's, once in a while, I'll tell Jack
We'll be in the writer's room and we'll be talking about an idea
And Jack will go, "Oh, Adam's gonna kill this
Adam's gonna kill this"
That's true, I do say that a lot
It's an easy pitch
I was on the phone, you were on the phone
And Jack and I were standing there
And it was the only time I actually ever
Most of the lyrics that I have contributed I was typing
But we actually were, um, kicking around the thing
And the idea of the one-upsmanship
Between the "textmergency" and the "textastrophe"
Came out of that conversation
And once we had that kind of general idea
Then it was like, "Guys, go, go finish this"
That's another case where you guys smartly
Don't let the audience get ahead of it
You know, the joke of "textmergency" was established
And we kind of said, "Let's do this early-'80s rock thing"
But then by the time we even get to the first chorus
There's another joke coming at you of like
They're arguing over what the phrase is and which one's catchier
And that's, that's, I think that's really, you know
That's, that's a smart thing that I don't always do

Adam's gonna kill this"
That's true, I do say that a lot
It's an easy pitch
