**********GETHSEMANE'S BLOCKCHAIN********** RRR: My currency comes straight from a great new era of progress. My currency comes straight from the age of the entrepeneur. My currency comes straight from Hoop Jones! R1: Why not set out with your friends on the path of adventure, and try to start up your own business? Our critics charge that letting you keep more of your earnings would trigger an explosion, and the strongest economic expansion in thirty years. "Hoop Jones is going to take all your money, send interest rates soaring." "Hoop Jones is going to take all your money and destroy our economy." "-Send interest rates soaring." "-Destroy our economy." R1 & R2: My currency comes straight from a great new era of progress. My currency comes straight from the age of the entrepeneur. R2: How many times do I have to tell you? "My currency comes straight from Hoop Jones, designed for those with the power and influence." "Trust in government began to erode my testicles, Morty, send interest rates soaring, and destroy our economy." R2: How many times do I have to tell you? Hoop Jones is going to take all your money. "Hoop Jones is going to take all your money, complicated, unfair, cluttered with gobble-de-gook and testicles." R1 & R2: My currency comes straight from the age of the entrepeneur. My currency comes straight from my testicles, Morty. "Hoop Jones is going to take all your money." R1: Hoop Jones! [Field recording - 12/15/89] "Everybody's the villain in somebody else's story."

"Unlock the doors!" State your cousin's confirmation. You've got confirmation. "You've got golden furniture!" "Don't hit the furniture!" "Don't hit the brakes too hard!" The man from the south campus boundary house. He's got the best furniture. Four-hundred square foot apartment with no bathroom; this is quirky Kirki's worst they've ever fucked. She's got no time to lose this much. "They want Christians dead!" She's got no time to lose this much. Quirky Kirki's lemonade furniture. She's got no time to lose this much. "They want Christians dead!" She's got no time to lose this much. He's got the best apartment with no bathroom. "Ah, ah! Take this cup from me, yet not my will but yours be done!" "Ah, ah!

Hypertension 04:40
***********HYPERTENSION*********** [Field recording - Siren] The rules don't matter to me. I don't have hypertension. Hypertension has me. I throat the gun until I hear it click. Fuck cars, blood tests, burn some money! A light knight on an odyssey. If you shit bricks, let me lick the rest. Hypertension - I don't know what's going on! I don't have hypertension. Hypertension has me. Hypertension - I don't know what's going on! I don't know what's going on! I don't know what's going on! CRAN: Inundated with dusky confidence, he stumbled. Shards and stones punched up into his knees. The craters left in those knees would fade within minutes. Risen, he ascends forth, bounding and shouting: Hypertension - I don't know what's going on! I don't know what's going on! Hypertension - I don't know what's going on! I don't know what's going on! Hypertension: a light knight on an odyssey. HUSTLE: I left my car keys at the bank, and I can't find my driver's license! I can't find my driver's license! Hypertension: a light knight on an odyssey. "You're going to have to, you're going to have to!" "Longer, tougher!" "Give it a go!" "Go!" "Keep going!" "More tighter!" CRAN: All the stars are here. Bring them closer. Watch how the sky changes after another round of coronavirus. "You're going to have to!" Let no broken mirror or little girl hide from me. "Longer, tougher!" "You're going to have to!" Let no broken mirror or little girl hide from me. "Give it a go!" "Keep going!" "More tighter!" "Give it a go!" "Go!" "Keep going!" HUSTLE: I left my car keys at the bank, and I can't find my driver's license! I can't find my driver's license! Hypertension: a light knight on an odyssey. Hypertension!

"You have to hurry up." "Who the fuck is Hoop Jones?!" [Field recording - Commercial (Paid Programming)] GOODWIN: It is okay to piss when you are making money. Time to place the sheets on the bed of the lame. Get us some sugar, defend your neighbor. Shake your biscuits like a Polaroid abortion. M: Pinto beans are built for teenths. Flagstaff says, "twice I tis'." Portland vintage sex isn't traumatized, built for teenths; that's Flagstaff. DRAGO: Gravity's rainbow: the greatest miracle drug in the store. GOODWIN: Like a Polaroid abortion. "Who the fuck is Hoop Jones?!" DRAGO: It builds tough stains in her clothes, the greatest miracle drug in the store. GOODWIN: Like a Polaroid abortion.

***********SHE DRIVES ME W I L D*********** I just want to be like a real girl for the first time, for the first time. I want the whole thing to run down my highway. I just want to be like a real girl for the first time, for the first time, for the first time. "She's driving up the walls, winching all the garage windows!" "She drives me wild!" "Taking the wrong interstate for the first time." "She drives me wild!" I just want to be like a real girl. "Sucking off the microwave salesman; she drives me wild!" Sucking off the microwave salesman for the first time. "Taking the wrong fucking interstate for the first time!" "She's driving up the walls, winching all the garage windows!" "She drives me wild!" "Taking the wrong interstate for the first time!" "Sucking off the microwave salesman; she drives me wild!" I just want to be like a real girl. "She drives me wild!"

***********FRONT FLIP / WILL TO*********** Put your hands behind your back! I'm about to do a front flip! Put your fingers up into your ass! I'm about to transcend this Ford Escape back into the pizza box! I'm about to do a front flip! W: You've got the will to do a front flip; just flip it. [Field recording] A cosmic terror rages, searching for acceptance. That time is done, and the flames for me are gone. The TV says ten are dead to feel. Excuse me, the bar is low. The light of day fades away; the TV fucks like it sins. Put your hands behind your back! I'm about to do a front flip! Put your fingers up into your ass! I'm about to transcend this Ford Escape back into the pizza box! I'm about to do a front flip! W: You've got the will to do a front flip; just flip it. [Field recording] Now you've been introduced to the flames of your prey. Fucked up in the uncanncy house, pretending it's the early '90s. You can't tell your head to sleep. Your bones are cracking in the rain. Your only choice is war; I'm taking the babies' tears into the shaft. [Field recording] I'm about to transcend this Ford Escape back into the pizza box! I'm about to do a front flip! [Field recording] Put your hands behind your back! I'm about to do a front flip! Put your fingers up into your ass! I'm about to transcend this Ford Escape back into the pizza box! I'm about to do a front flip! W: You've got the will to do a front flip; just flip it. [Field recording]

***********TAKE ME 2 THE DAMN TOP*********** [Choral sample] Take me to the damn top! R: I don't care who dies; my life is in the Northwest. Suffering in silence, your money grips. Suffering angels, their power trips. I could die in a rug and you couldn't stop to flatten me. You could be the milky way, my Tennessee. Always greedy- caught oblivion too fast. Your wig blows up my straight line clicks. My net makes people disappear! GAME: My side piece pisses champagne! My life flashes in the window pane! Suffering madness, another trip! Suffering in silence, your money grips! [Soul sample] [Field recording] "Take me to the damn top!" Take me to the damn top! "Hi! Do it!" Take me to the damn top! GAME: Nothing can touch the truth in the kingdom of time. Fuck it- I worship the taste of a dime! [Field recording] Take me to the damn top! GAME: Nothing can touch the truth in the kingdom of time. [Field recording] GAME: Fuck it- I worship the taste of a dime! Take me to the damn top! GAME: My side piece pisses champagne! My life flashes in the window pane! Suffering madness, another trip! Suffering in silence, your money grips!

Bradshaw 04:57
***********BRADSHAW*********** DAVIS: "I think of a rainbow, you know- like, We have these nightmares of like, 1984- the book." "We're locked into perpetual war, but God promises us with a rainbow that all things rise and fall." "You know? So, that's kind of the promise." T: Met a girl last night, last name Bradshaw. Took me down to the club, 5th pad on Crenshaw. Never thought I'd hit it off with Allie Bradshaw. Looks like I'm getting sucked off by Allie Bradshaw. Triple texts me all day, quadruple sexts me all night. Yells and screams at me every day of my life. Her's is like a joystick: a hand like a claw machine on 2P. Don't move the mouse pad too fast- you'll get a root canal worse than you've ever came before. [Field recording] T: God buried himself underground for head like this. GAME: "Hold the push-ups, Hoop Jones said I got the next verse!" Mercy, mercy me- I'm painless. Flood on the dance floor, panic in the bedroom. Allie Bradshaw hooks herself up to the Sybian. Full power, max speed; watch Allie Bradshaw transcend space and time! FABRICE: You know we got- [Field recording] FABRICE: Big lots, one shot! Put that on top, you weren't it, weren't it- [Field recording] FABRICE: You try, we pop! [Field recording] DRE: With guys like Jimmy Page, who would she run to? Could she do a front flip if she had the will to? No more black holes, only shootouts. Allie Bradshaw's close to coming; I can't ignore the slayer's blade. [Field recording] DRE: Allie Bradshaw's close to coming; I can't ignore the slayer's blade. [Field recording] FABRICE: You know we pop! [Field recording] FABRICE: Back home, you weren't it, weren't it- [Field recording] GAIA: Rest in peace, dick; you was in my left titty! [Field recording] GAIA: Tesla two-seater, just me and the strain. [Field recording] GAIA: Rest in peace, munch; I need keys in my city. [Field recording] GAIA: Tesla two-seater, just me and the strain. [Field recording] T: Triple texts me all day. GAME: Mercy, mercy me- I'm painless. T: Quadruple sexts me all night. GAME: Full power, max speed; watch Allie Bradshaw transcend space and time! T: Yells and screams at me every day of my life. Never thought I'd hit it off with Allie Bradshaw.
