I had a semi-religious experience related to this song.. I was a Programmer/Designer at Rockstar San Diego, and we all went up to E3 in Los Angeles right around the release of Midnight Club: Dub Edition. I think it was 2006 or 2007. We were all staying at either the Chateau Marmont or the Standard. Videogame money was taking care of us, treating us like actual rock stars. We all headed down Sunset to some swanky place, had Sushi for dinner and drank enough alcohol to sink a ship. Most stumbled back to the hotel, but a few of us decided a strip club visit was in order. I didn't find the talent all that special, but there was one... oh my... She was perfection. I really didn't care what she was going to dance to, but when she took the stage to this song, I think I pulled a Dave, and floated away. From that moment on, my color was green, and that dancer on stage... well, she was mine too. A few lap dances later and my life was forever changed. God damn i love this song.

All Maynard’s voice. He uses various effects, but he’s also amazing at changing his voice to fit certain sections of a song. Vocal chameleon, kind of like Mike Patton.

Drug problem =/= Psychedelic drug use !!!!

Okay.. a little piece of information about Tool that may help you get why a satirical song about drugs have this shitload of instrumentals and heavy riffs among other pretty deep songs with simpler (arguable) arrangements. The lyrics is the last piece to be added into their music. Maynard creates the lyrics by his reaction on the instrumentals sent (done and unchangeable) to him. Imagine you getting this instrumental madness and think of what the hell you would talk on top of it. I think he chose the perfect fit. I confess it took me a while to really appreciate this song, but man... when you get into it, there is just no way back. "Overwhelmed as one would be...." this gives me chills every time and I consider it one of the best pieces of their music for a while already...

Whether you react to it or not, I highly suggest you watch JohnKew's drum cover of this song. He studied for months to do it justice and nails it. It took my appreciation for this song to a whole 'nother level.

The juxtaposition of the utterly epic musicality against the joke lyrics is quintessentially Tool. You picked up on it pretty early in the song, insightful as always. "Overwhelmed as one would be..." I sometimes listen to that portion on loop just because I need grand, glorious climax in my life over and over again.

So, it seems no one has said it, so I will: this account is of Bill Manspeaker, co-founder/lead singer of Green Jell-O"y". Go check out Three Little Pigs. Maynard was the voice of the pigs and Danny was on drums.

left u speechless for several seconds after song, Tool does that to most of us.

This one was amazing! Great work!

This is the pinnacle of their instrumentation to me. Few bands have the musical competency to create something like this. The rhythmic complexity, and constant rapid changes are mind blowing. And you’re right. It’s always been genius to me how they have these out-there, absurd, humorous lyrics over some of the hardest and most intricate instrumentals I’ve heard.

Rosetta Stone is the tablet found that was used to decipher Egyptian hieroglyphics! Maybe ancient aliens Egyptians, drugs? It’s probably just a goof of a title.

Tool - Crawl Away

Albert Hoffman was the one to first create LSD. The first time he tripped on it, he lost his car keys and had to ride his bicycle home. That is why the song is called lost keys/flame Hoffman. That is also why April 19 is bicycle day, when we celebrate the creation of LSD. Because he rode his bicycle home

Fun fact! The siren sound during Lost Keys is made by the bass player, Justin.

If you can, check out the 1993 film Fire in the Sky. Based on the alien abduction account of Travis Walton. However, these 2 songs are about a guy who got abducted and given a message to tell the world. But because the human mind can only comprehend so much, he became overwhelmed by the experience and totally forgot what the message was. Gets dumped somewhere completely naked in a mindless state, then wanders into a doctor's clinic and strapped down to the bed; the lyrics are what he thinks happened. The music on its own in both tracks, I believe are hauntingly calm (lost keys) and the ups and downs of his emotional state (rosetta stoned). That's my interpretation anyway.

It was constructed by placing a guitar pickup in a copper pipe that was capped on both ends. Have seen some others have made that are similar, but none that used a guitar pickup. And I haven't been able to find out anything on how it is used.

Appreciation of psychedelics does not equal drug problem. Maynard has not had a drug addiction to my knowledge, but I'm sure he's dabbled in his share. Also, this song was based on a story told to Maynard.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

Regarding the effect on Maynards voice. I saw them perform this live in 2006 and he used a megaphone for this song. Impressively he did all that super fast talking in the first half live perfectly too.

Hi, a few things on this one: -On the album there is no gap between the end of Lost Keys and the beginning of Rosetta Stoned. Immediately after the doctor says "Tell me everything", you get the guitar and MJK saying "Alrighty then. Picture this if you will:" -There is a video on YT of Danny Carey talking about the inspiration for this song. It was an actual person they knew who thought he'd been abducted, and MJK took it from there. -From everything I've ever seen, read, or heard about their songwriting process, the music is done when they give it to MJK, who then uses the track to write the lyrics.

Knowing about, and using in moderation, does not mean a problem. Idk if he did drugs, but I'm more knowledgeable about drugs than just the ones I've done. Most of this song is old school drug lingo, too. Deadhead chemistry/blotter are terms that most kids in the "scene"would understand as LSD. X is ecstasy, DMT is another hallucinogenic drug. Basically, dude blasted himself into orbit long before a craft supposedly picked him up.

I just love 10000 days

Had to be exposed to acid and alien abduction propaganda in the 80's and 90's to truly appreciate the brilliance of this song....I think we all had the Forgotten pen moment after trips of revelations in our minds😂😂😂

Many people miss this, but Lipan Conjuring is also a part of this storyline. Act I: Lipman Conjuring - Our subject is participating in a Lipan Apache ritual, perhaps on a reservation out in the desert (Lipans were known for their use of Peyote and Ayahuasca.. both plants containing DMT) Act II: Lost Keys (Blame Hoffman) - Our subject finds himself waking up disoriented in a hospital overhearing a nurse and doctor discussing his situation and the lack of information they have. Act III: Rosetta Stoned - Our subject reveals the tale of an alien abduction that happened between the time frame of Act I and Act II. Danny goes on to explain the inspiration behind the storyline here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/lqB-rrCxlZatkZs.html

Non-creative people can't even imagine how creative people could possible come up with bizzare random stories without having a 'drug problem'. I don't use anything and write sci-fi and fantasy novels. While this particular story song was inspired by drugs, Maynard was almost certainly not on drugs when he wrote it into lyrics.
