Alt-pop track with unorthodox structure, 190-230 BPM with metric modulations every 4 bars, time signatures shifting freely between 7/8, 5/4, 11/16, 13/8 and free time; modes hop between Lydian, Phrygian, chromatic clusters, whole-tone clouds and 12-tone rows. Core instruments: screws-prepared clavichord, polymetric trash barrel beats, detuned quarter-tone toy glockenspiels, sub-bass rumble, mbira, circuit-bent Tamagotchi vocal glitches, cheese grater cymbals, female vocals shifting from deadpan to operatic to gurgling within verses. Production flips between brick-wall hyper-compression and warbled tape hiss. 7 contradictory emotions: absurd giddiness + cosmic dread + quiet defiance + micro-irritation + feral softness + sleepy melancholy + paranoid delight. Narrative theme: rubber duck oceanography podcast deep dive, following a sentient bath toy investigating sunken lollipop shipwrecks, tangling with conspiracy theories about bath bomb mind control and a secret duck cult hoarding lost bath salts. Surreal, deadpan academic, whimsically mundane lyrical tone, no conventional verse-chorus structure.

[Intro] [Verse] Adjust the mic for the suds Tracking the plastic floods Water begins to rise Behind my painted eyes I record the heavy steam Inside this ceramic dream [Build-up] Lollipop masts on the floor I want to explore some more Sugar dissolved in the dark Avoid the porcelain shark Sticky reefs and cherry tides Where the sticky secret hides [Drop] Squeak for the salt Squeak for the leak It is not my fault That the floor is weak [Hook] The bath bombs are watching The lavender is a lie The bubbles are hatching Under a tile-white sky They control the fizzing brain Sending signals down the drain Watch the effervescent glow More than you should know [Interlude] The drain is a hungry hole I’ve lost all plastic control Measuring the magnesium depth With every hollow breath Deep in the pipes they sleep Secrets that the ducks keep [Verse] The cult of the Mallard Singing a wet ballad Green as a sea salad In a world so pallid They hoard the stolen salts In the underwater vaults [Bridge] Pink Himalayan hoards Across the ceramic boards I hide in the sponge Before the final plunge Defiant in the foam This tub is not a home [Solo] [Hook] The bath bombs are watching The lavender is a lie The bubbles are hatching Under a tile-white sky They control the fizzing brain Sending signals down the drain Watch the effervescent glow More than you should know [Breakdown] Lollipop wreckage tastes like rust The duck god is made of dust In the fizz we trust The crust must combust [Post-Chorus] The water is getting cold The towel is smelling old The secrets have been told The yellow turns to gold [Outro]
