The X-panded Universe Lyrics by Father John Misty

“25?”
The chair-bound oracle
Dr. Valence can’t believe
That this girl is the perfect weapon
He was sent here to retrieve

Answers are few now
And upstate, there are more like her
But Colossus isn’t sure
This Texas Candy heiress
Between medications
On a padded room floor
Is our last hope

But it’s okay
I am the dark star that your illness cannot cure
The liberation front is only eight days on foot away
In the x-panded universe
In the crossover event
God is only as good as the villains he invents

Everyone gets saved
Everyone gets saved
Everyone gets saved
On a bad, bad day

“Let me guess
An inter-dimensional virus
Makes you wet the bed”
These smirking orderlies have no idea
Just who they’re dealing with

For class 5 angels
It turns out everything they tell you
About human love is true
And these amazing gifts once faded
Land in any old nut house after you’ve
Only served them for decades

But it’s okay
I have lemon cake with Mother
Every visitation day
And I will miss her, I will miss her
When I finally x-scape

In the x-panded universe
If I understand the gist
There must be timelines like this
Where heroes don’t x-ist

Everyone gets saved
Everyone gets saved
Everyone gets saved
On a bad, bad day
Everyone gets saved
Everyone gets saved
Everyone gets saved
Everyone gets saved
On a bad, bad day
Everyone gets saved
Everyone gets saved
Everyone gets saved
Everyone gets saved
On a bad, bad day
Everyone gets saved

Keep listening
