1.	Two Birds, One’s Stoned 01:39	lyrics	buy track
This is a drill, it’s nothing new, oh yeah you’ve seen this all before until it kills you This is a vessel for you to voice your opinions from and nothing more I’m going through the motions of a growing boy until it kills me and it will It’s in your head it’s in your mind where you dream when the days start to feel real short what’s really wrong? I turn to granite, turn to marble or slate metamorphose back to the original state I turn the TV on, is anyone home? It feels just like the calm before the storm
2.	Buzzing Still // Cousin House 04:56	lyrics	buy track
I miss dropping LEGO boats in the stream that made Walsh Park Its cut back banks with my brothers in the rain And when the hundred-year flood hit my neighborhood I wasn’t sure whether I’d sink or swim Well shit, don’t look back, we’re better off now Nostalgia is the fog Well the sun’s all tangled up in the clouds Through the trees the bees are really loud as they Buzz right through my ear to my brain and I Can’t stop freaking out, I’m insane Dude I’m allergic to bees, I mean Mildly but still, I mean Mildly but still An inner peace in the quarry crater came over me I’ll have to save that for later Tethered to the notion that I’m not ready Sugarcoat it candy-coat it That’s the only way to get through Sugarcoat it candy-coat it Don’t give it to me straight, doc Crystal and shiny silver, I never felt so fancy, gilded, brazen with no parents home Lifted retreating, our confidence fleeting, I’m a chandelier on the ceiling Serene sounds of angels, our ears are bleeding, buzzing still from cousin house Buzzing still from cousin house, buzzing still from cousin house, buzzing still Buzzing still from cousin house, way out back behind the house, buzzing still from cousin house Wavy we wave, waving as we wave, bobbing in the ocean of people and pearls, Heads are glistening, we hear the whispers in the air (in the air) Heart attack or large fries, I don’t feel as fancy as I once did Buzzing still from cousin house, buzzing still from cousin house, buzzing still Buzzing still from cousin house, way out back behind the house, buzzing still from cousin house Buzzing still from cousin house, way out back behind the house, buzzing still from cousin house
3.	Dead Eyes, Clapping In Unison 03:20	lyrics	buy track
I, I, I, yeah I was really, I, I, I was thinkin’ I’d be home by now, yeah I’d be home by now I, I, I, yeah I was really, I, I, I was thinkin’ I was someplace else, I must’ve got misplaced again, I must’ve got misplaced again Everyday is the same, is the same, and then it’s over ‘fore it even began Everyday is the same, is the same, I wonder if it’s ever gonna change I don’t accept the notion that it’s less fucked up to let them hoard their wealth Hide behind the news you own, six-hundred million dead eyes clap in unison, along in unison, along in unison How about we cut the obvious bullshit? I’m sure you worked hard, but not that hard Sharing is caring is the new law Or do we have to eat you up?
4.	Synchronize Yr Watches 04:15	lyrics	buy track
We’ll play hospital with the picture books Our parents nearly left behind We’ll make believe you’re a general And I’m the nurse that saves you, saves you Yeah our grandparents sure are pretty old, there’s no sense doing what you’re told Yeah our grandparents sure are pretty old, there’s no sense doing what you’re told I hope I die before I get old, I’ll die in a picture frame Yeah our grandparents sure are pretty old, there’s no sense doing what you’re told The sirens, go! Wrong timeline, I’ll just have to put my shit on hold Don’t be afraid of your decay, it’s only yesterday I get stronger every day, what’s the rush, what’s the rush, what’s the rush? What’s the rush? What’s the rush?! The faces, flow! So many, history won’t remember you And I can’t remember… Dip my clothes in liquid gold, I wanna look the best that I can With my bones all made out of stone, I wanna be around long after I’m gone Dip my friends in liquid gold, you’re not going anywhere With my head all made out of twine, it takes everything just to unwind Dip my friends in liquid gold, you’re not going anywhere With my bones all made out of stone, I wanna be around long after I’m gone
5.	Spellcasting 02:46	lyrics	buy track
Remember when I used to call you all the time That doesn’t happen anymore We’re too preoccupied with all our stuff It seems so pointless when we put it that way Remember when We went out to the forest behind your parents’ house We set off that flare and made out in the grass The fractal patterns hint at behind the veil As we cast spells, refracted through time Reaching out through, a collection of fates The stars don’t remember each other even after they’ve collided And I think I have the same inclination as them My inhibitions in the way of my ambitions again I feel like a cloud, or maybe more like wet sand What happens now, right brain eats left brain rearrange just like it’s supposed to When what you dream, turns out to be real
6.	Numb Sum 05:56	lyrics	buy track
Stretched out on stretchers, I lay my head back My wallet’s stretched pretty thin The most expensive cab ride ever conceived I bet my insurance loves me At least somebody loves me At least somebody loves me At least somebody loves me like the dollar sign I am I’d give you an arm, I’d give you a leg Just to check out my remaining arm and leg Can you fix me Can you prevent it all in the first place Hung up on hang-ups, I can hardly relate, that’s not how I do business No time for patients, please hone your patience, don’t call us we’ll call on you Succumb to care so reactionary, become one of the numb sum Heaved up to heaven and I can’t help but laugh, I guess the big guy likes me I guess the big guy likes me I guess the big guy likes me I guess that we’re going steady I guess that we’re going steady And you are exactly who you’re supposed to be, supposed to be And you are exactly who you’re supposed to be, supposed to be
7.	Society Can Help Shape Our Genes 02:27	lyrics	buy track
It’s in the air, it’s incredible, can you feel it, I want you to feel it too It’s electric in the earth It’s rebirth, it’s incredible what we can accomplish when we work together Holy shit, I think you’re my best friend in the universe, name one thing and you know it’s done We’re one in the same But it’s a loaded question, I wanna stay inside, What’s up? I can’t keep up I wish my actions spoke louder than my head Do you suffer, I suffer too Do you suffer, I suffer too Do you suffer, you know we don’t have to It’s a neuron constellation Just to think of what to say Ease up, pump the brakes a bit It’s no big deal, I don’t care what ya say, I don’t wanna mess this one up I mean it’s no consolation There’s a symphony in an idle mind Just tune in and you’ll hear it I don’t wanna tell you how to think But show me the line between me and I because right now it seems to me That I’ve looked at this thing from every angle Or so I thought, was that even me? Hive mind, I can’t change mine Sour metallic lingers in my mouth Do I change, or stay the same?
8.	Realizing You’re Everywhere 02:43	lyrics	buy track
All of the animals at the zoo, they’re staging a coup tonight And I’m inspired, yeah I perspire all the while Little links in the fence, they seem so innocent with their intents Though I wonder who makes these and why we even have them As I turn my head from the security feed, I assume my animal skin I want reception of the truths that bind all living things All my friends stretched out in a line I coulda swore it’d go for miles But that’s okay, yeah that’s okay I need some new ones anyway That’s the root of all my problems, they’re the same, just unresolved From earlier on, from earlier on It just hasn’t dawned on me yet It just won’t dawn on me yet It just won’t dawn on me yet It just won’t dawn on me yet I’ll pick my point in space, let that resound behind my face ‘Cause radiation’s all I’ve got, radiation’s all I’ve got And I’ll time travel inside my bed, sleep for days, stay in my head There’s always sleepies in my eyes, there’s always sleepies in my eyes All my friends stretched out in a line I coulda swore it’d go for miles But that’s okay, yeah that’s okay I’ll reach the moon some other way All my friends stretched out in a line I coulda swore it’d go for miles But that’s okay, yeah that’s okay I need some new ones anyway That’s the root of all my problems They’re the same, just unresolved From earlier on, from earlier on It just hasn’t dawned on me yet
9.	Slush Fund 04:13	lyrics	buy track
Wake up to another way to break my bones I feel like the last kid at the swimmin’ hole And the water’s all gone, it’s just the rock, rock, rock and roll But still I can’t help wonder where the head goes when you’re dead But still I can’t help wonder where the head goes when you’re dead Very delicate, tracing out the scene of the crime Carbon, skeleton, carving out the scene of the crime [All flights are cancelled, we are sure sorry for the inconvenience] There’s no money, how could there be no money? How could there be no money, how could there be no money? There’s no money, how could there be no money? How could there be no money, how could there be no money?
10.	Sensual Sports 02:26	lyrics	buy track
First it’s the seatbelt, I feel myself launch straight through the windshield Then it’s the pavement, I feel myself walking straight Did you know there’s no such thing as upside down? Did you know there’s no upside down? Did you know there’s no upside down? I feel weird, I need a drink I need to wash down the sentiment When the truth sets in, I feel the disconnect between what I thought and what can happen I came in through the door, no that can’t be right, I came in through the window about a half an hour before I knew I was coming Don’t go getting upset over things you can’t control Don’t go getting upset over things you can’t control
11.	Mas and/or Menos 03:40	lyrics	buy track
We cut all our hands On the limestone and sand Tie ribbons around my head Don’t get upset The storm weathers on And despite the door Gale forced its way in Mas and/or menos Inside this house there is a hurricane tearing me apart Inside this house there is a lava flow burning me alive The light it writhes On the stress-soaked boards of this Driftwood construction One miserable production The spirals withdrew From the ongoing slew Of broken synapses Hand-me-down collapses Inside this house there is a hurricane tearing me apart Inside this house there is a landslide mucking it up I crawled to the roof, the top of the crow’s nest, to see nothing left A body of water with a mind of its own Then just for me, fireworks They’re working against me, set on the horizon, conspire against me The end of the world in twelve shades It weaves in and out, more and/or less, don’t wanna endure this It’s working against me It’s nestled against me, ah It’s working against me It’s nestled against me Inside this head there is a message exploding Inside this head there is a muscle with a death-wish
12.	Oh god, If There Is A god 02:55	lyrics	buy track
Oh god, if there is a god, computer god is that you? Plug in, plug in to the universal rhythm Oh god, oh god, am I honest, do you care? Subscribe, subscribe to the dogma that is fair Cause I can, I can feel it on the internet Try to buy a little magic online Hot day in the car, I used to swear I could see a glitch In the road, up in front, the convection melted my eyes At home, on the couch I used to swear I could see through the pillows Oh god, oh god, everything’s all translucent Like a mirror that reflects some similarity But the pixels get all choked up On the little things
13.	The Movies 03:43	lyrics	buy track
Movie magic, matching outfits, tiny wines, why complain? These fucked up lenses on set all day Movie magic in my veins, only five years away Billboards and TV will rot my brain Just let the movie magic decay anyway Screw the film, bye bye, I don’t wanna die, I don’t wanna die Screw the pay, bye bye, I don’t wanna die, I’m the star of the show Fuck this shit, bye bye, I don’t wanna die, unless it’s my way Screw the pay, bye bye, I’m an animal, cast me as such Lights, fame, you know what I look like Shit figures, it’s all the same Mistakes, in the movies, the silver screen, it’s grainy I wanna die, on the big screen, recorded, for all to see I wanna die, on the big screen, recorded, for all to see
14.	Numb Sum (Single Edit) 05:00	lyrics
Stretched out on stretchers, I lay my head back My wallet’s stretched pretty thin The most expensive cab ride ever conceived I bet my insurance loves me At least somebody loves me At least somebody loves me At least somebody loves me like the dollar sign I am I’d give you an arm, I’d give you a leg Just to check out my remaining arm and leg Can you fix me Can you prevent it all in the first place Hung up on hang-ups, I can hardly relate, that’s not how I do business No time for patients, please hone your patience, don’t call us we’ll call on you Succumb to care so reactionary, become one of the numb sum Heaved up to heaven and I can’t help but laugh, I guess the big guy likes me I guess the big guy likes me I guess the big guy likes me I guess that we’re going steady I guess that we’re going steady And you are exactly who you’re supposed to be, supposed to be And you are exactly who you’re supposed to be, supposed to be

about

RAD-073:

Supertinyinfinitedans is a document. Better yet, it’s a time capsule. Most of Yes Yes a Thousand Times Yes’ sophomore LP has existed, in some form or another, since 2014. In that way, it’s almost a time machine, a look back into songwriter Dan Hagendorf’s life and mindset nearly a decade ago. At that time, cuts like the anti-social media ender “The Movies” and eat-the-rich anthems “Dead Eyes, Clapping in Unison” and “Numb Sum” might’ve sounded hyperbolic; in 2023, they seem prophetic. Hagendorf says their goal on Supertinyinfinitedans is to “vindicate its listeners in saying you are justified in feeling angry and desperate, but also challenge them in saying hope is not mutually exclusive.”

Sonically, these songs do indeed have their roots in the emo boom of the early 2010s: the opening “Two Birds, One’s Stoned” kicks the LP off with noodling goodness, “Society Can Help Shape Our Genes” has bouncing math riffs buried under its pop rock structure, and the six-minute “Numb Sum” begins with a math emo licks before disintegrating into a prog rock banger. As the second half of “Numb Sum” suggests, though, like with the record’s lyrical arc, its musical arc is one that stretches beyond its time-and-place origins. “Slush Fund” sheds its indie rock skin midway through to reveal a Dischord-inflected post-hardcore soul trapped inside, and each verse of “Sensual Sports” might as well be borrowed from a different song—hell, maybe even a different band—but they all come together to make a great track equally as catchy as it is crunchy.

A number of songs on Supertinyinfinitedans (“Spellcasting,” “Synchronize Yr Watches,” “Buzzing Still // Cousin House”) deal with nostalgia, the feeling that maybe there was something special that we lost along the way as we’ve grown, that there’s no way to get that thing back. Maybe, to a certain degree, that’s true—maybe there is a door that’s closed and can’t be opened again, maybe the ship’s sailed long ago. But for 45 minutes, Yes Yes a Thousand Times Yes reminds us that, whatever evil the government might be up to, or corporations, or the internet, “you can still choose to hope.” And if you can hope, then you can believe, and if you can believe, you can make it. Supertinyinfinitedans is proof.
