Cover by Lyndsay

Recorded on a Tascam 424 4-track in October 2025, we wanted to make a demo of songs that each have a different feel to them and centered around the theme of “Here we are rushing and working and watching the world end under capitalism, when we could be laying on a couch in a field eating food covered in hot sauce”.

Lyrics

HOTT SAUCE

Burn me
Scorch me
Numb me
Shake me
Tongue on the floor, I’ll take some more
Tongue on the floor, give me more

Seeing red covered in my sweat
Bite my lip taking in deep breaths

I want it all I need the taste
I want it all in haste

Hazy
Blurry
Misty
Dizzy
Tongue on the floor, I’ll drink some more
Tongue on the floor, give me more

Seeing red taking in deep breaths
Bite my lip covered in my sweat

I want it all, I need the taste
I want it all, nothing goes to waste

Hott sauce in my face

END OF THE WORLD WITH YOU

My words are dreary nothing’s coming out right
You see I fell in love with you but the apocalypse is in sight
Hey I love the look in your eyes, 
hand in hand with you softens the worlds demise,
because as long as I’m with you the flames of hell can be paradise

I want to scream about love but I think in doom
You bring the sun and well, I’ll bring the gloom

I’m trying to write a love song just for you
but the world is deep and dark I don’t know what to do
but babe I know I want to spend the end of the world with you

Hey whaddya say you wanna do this with me?
We’ll take on each day and help each others fears and anxieties
Doom scrolling, bombs falling, housing crisis, AI rising
I don’t know how to take it, but with you I know I’ll make it
Whaddya say you wanna do this thing with me?

I want to scream about love but I think in doom
You bring the sun and well, I’ll bring the gloom

I’m trying to write a love song just for you
but the world is deep and dark I don’t know what to do
but babe I know I want to spend the end of the world with you

STAYING HOME

Get home from work, got plans tonight
Change my clothes, fit check, it’s alright 
Open my door, take a deep breath in
Change my mind, turn around
I’m staying in

On the couch
Scroll around
Close my eyes and fall asleep

I like to party, but JOMO’s got me
Woah-oh-woah-oh I’m staying home
So much to do, so much to see
Woah-oh-woah-oh I’m staying home

I could go out, it would be fun
See some friends, eat some food, laugh a ton
But we all know, how this will go
My shoes are off
I’m staying home

Take a bath
Read in bed
Shut my eyes and fall asleep

I like to party, but JOMO’s got me
Woah-oh-woah-oh I’m staying home
So much to do, so much to see
Woah-oh-woah-oh I’m staying home
I’m staying home tonight

CEASE TO EXIST

Enough with the daily grind
we’re meant to lay in fields snacking in the sun
Capitalism is here, ruining it for everyone

What are we doing?
The dream that we’re killing
No one is meant to live like this
Feeding a system designed for the villains
Just trying not to cease to exist
