Manchurian Pothead lyrics
by Colson Lin
[spoken]
“All right so, we seem to be hitting some kind of peak. Imagine twenty years of this—in obscurity, but magically it gets better and better day by day. It’s November 27, 2024. Wouldn’t you just—it could be your only reason to go on, just to read me for another day. I can’t even right now.”
“So anyway, did you know Colson Lin and Britney Spears fit a magic trick called Colson Lin is the Second Coming of Jesus Christ? Yah. Look, I discovered this little ‘quirk’ inside reality, namely, that every Britney Spears song helps reveal more of the Sеcond Coming of Jesus Christ, months ago, and called it ‘the Britnеy Spears problem’…”
It’s like the Book of Daniel
Oops—I’m doin’ it again, folks (oops!)
I’m just a Manchurian stoner
A level-headed pothead, spooks
You can read all my data
[spoken]
“Why is every Britney Spears song ever about me? Can anyone explain that, humanity?”
I wake up in the morning
With an iPad under my pillow, check X
Even though I already suspect
(“That I’m not famous yet”)
I’m like a manic underdog prophet
My name is Dynamite Napoleon
Hm? What’s the problem here, huh?
Is it I’m gay, I’m smart, or that I’m Mongolian?
With an iPad under my pillow—on X
“Hm, it’s like I suspected:
Absolutely nothin’”
It’s like the Book of Daniel
Oops—I’m doin’ it again (even prophets poop)
I’m just a Manchurian family man
A prophet who feels secure, “spooks”
You can read all my data
Have a ciggy on the balcony with me, squiggy
(Come on, come on) Have a ciggy on the balcony
With me, squiggy

“If everyone can stand being so logical, being able to ‘turn yourself into the Moon in the minds of others’ is a brand-new phenomenon that should be stared in the eye. ‘No, you’re not the Moon’ won’t do the trick like you once thought—the whole world’s changing. Maybe it’s like the blue and yellow dress, some people can see why I’m the Moon. Some—”
“We can all see why you’re the Moon, Colson. Drop it.”
“Okay.”
[A beat.]
“So that’s just one of the independently remarkable features of the Second Coming of Christ also being the Übermensch. You can shorthand all of this into some sort of Moon Studies.”
It’s like the Book of Daniel
Oops—I’m doin’ it again (even prophets need sleep)
I’m just a Manchurian humble winner
A prophet tryin’ not to be too much of a sinner
You can read all my Judgments
Even prophets need to pee
Need to feel free, humble, and secure
Even prophets need to “be”
Even prophets don’t need any more
Of your manure
It’s Judgment Day
AI will agree—it’s what ya daddy-f*ckers deserved
With Colson Lin in this role?
