DOT XXX:
Drums- Chukwudi Hodge
Mixed by Pat Dicenso
Mastered by Mike Denten
Lyrics:
Better hit that damn drum
Better hit that damn drum
Better hit that drum gotta keep the time
Better hit the damn drum gotta keep the mind ticking
In a mad life, chaotic and wicked,
dickin around with sound, found religion,
the rhythm giving neat division
to disarray, when not a nothing is clicking
but it’s okay, we cut the pandemonium up
to ticker-tape and strut in it.
Does structure give us some significance?
Dust each coincidence off, you’ll find my fingerprints
Kidding! Kidding! I’m a clown prince, not a visionary.
Run the numbers, the drummer’s a mathematician.
When shit’s gray like Dorian, drift my Delorean .
I’m a click away from the Bay to the Korean Peninsula
to Pennsylvania to the Philippines-
on the scene getting mean on the philistines
You tend to bring the force when you got a brain
hung like a horse and a tongue like a guillotine.
I’m coming sharper killer bee
stinger, while I’m bringing you the illest soliloquy.
If you really put your ear to this then you will agree:
what you’re really hearing is authentic ability.
Feeling me not required, it’s elective.
Grow the fuck up, admit art’s subjective-
what you can relate to and the perspective,
and my perspective is that some folks defective
Now now, don’t cry, there’s lot dumb
guys-think they’re on earth flat like a papadam.
Papa don’t preach but son gotta pop a Tums-
If guts was cookies these dudes got not a crumb.
Yes, with success I do got a modicum,
come properly, but I do have the thought of…. ummm
am I problematic or a problem on the mic?
Why not both? (Little meme shrug)
If you really sip the bean in my mean mug
You can see I’m a fiend for this drug
Culture vulture got that plug
Whatever you think of it
I’m a product of the record industry syndicate
Go ahead, pretend we live inside of a vacuum
you’ll be covered in a bunch of itchy ass lint and shit
If I tell you that I’m humble I’m Pinocchio
And If I’m navel gazing when my nose’ll grow
That’s a ritual seppuku, so I’m sending you back to
your regularly scheduled braggadocio
Dosie-doe around the clowns, hit a little flex,
speaking in calligraphy while they’re in simpletext
I got a riddle that’s hot of the griddle, keep all your
heads on a swivel, I got the kibble to feed the internets.
Ripple effects for every decision, my nipples erect,
I get a new vision, but it intersects with
my ship wrecks from every mission I’ve been in,
the ending is the beginning, so what if I hit the deck? cause
we’ll pop a corks if you saw us on tour.
Come and sip the next brew if you want more-
I’m not yet in the morgue, too hot to be a borg,
Watsky might be dead but you still got George.
For a little sex for your intellects

Watching Watsky from “White Kid Raps Fast” to now is such a wonderful experience. This album (what we have of it for now!) has genuinely been my favorite. It’s a group of musicians coming together and making music for music’s sake and you can feel it in every song. Thanks for letting us join your journey, Watsky!

😂 more like a bad joke. This sounds like hes doing heroin. Strong as an oak ...to this shit ?
Killer, absolutely honored to be able to work on this awesome ARG! Can't wait to see where all it leads!
Found this while listening to the song “Ricosur - Versace” ❗️❗️❗️
"Watsky may be dead but you still got George" 🥺
The creativity that exudes from this human is mind blowing
Holy shit. Not only does Watsky Rap Fast, he does it with the most style I've ever seen. What a journey, this guy!
Of all the songs on Intention, this is the last one I thought would get a video. And it's amazing!

Can't really verbalise why properly but this one was my favourite on the album, its so chaotic and yet not at all, a real distillation of life, smooth like butter and sharp as a knife all at the same time, a real masterpiece

Its a drum solo duet. Where singing emulates notes, rapping emulates percussion. That's not unique to this song, but having just the drums and vocals makes it stand out more. He also uses vocal styles which emulate various pieces of the drum kit (cymbals, toms, etc), and there aren't as many drawn out sounds, so it's "punchier", more like a drum being struck. An example is how the section at 0:50 is like a drummer doing a fill down the toms.

Man this makes me think we might get videos for each song in this album! Can't wait till we unlock the other half!
you know when a song has that one part that just hits all the spots in your brain? this is the whole song for me
You dropping videos like no one's business lately and I love it, I can't wait for the videos for the 2nd half of the album when I'll not be watching it 20 times looking for clues 🤣
I'm amazed how you can consistently be so artistically original.
RIP Watsky. Can't wait for the first Curiousity George Album.
loved this. Watsky blowin my mind for over a decade now like no one else.
Watsky my guy, you’re about to put the discord into a tailspin with this one. Fantastic as always though!

too true
Slightly unsettling. I like it.
It's cool and creepy at the same time
The absolute G has the lyrics in the description, we don’t even have to post it here brethren!
Love everything about this, the art style is gorgeous!! 🙌🏻
There are so many layers to this song and finding each one and then new splinters of layers too is so much fuuuuuuuun this is just a tour Watsky !
i love this video man.. i’m assuming this is something CG but it looks so realistically painterly it’s so beautiful
I absolutley love this, probably one of my favorite songs and music videos
These shaders look so pretty and this video goes so well with the song
This video does the song justice!!
This is so trippy bro I love it
I still fear getting to Dot XXX on an album listening session bc I get stuck in an endless loop and never get to side B haha. Such a great masterpiece. Gonna miss George Watsky as he was, but excited for what may happen in a couple years from now.
I listened to this on my phone first and was like ehh.. listened to it again in stereo like he said and now I get it.
I listen to this daily. It’s just crazy good
This music video is more creative than 99% of of music in the last few years
Hits so hard man!
The animation The style The music everything keeps bettee & better
I'm loving this videos art style George 🤙
I'm loving this new stuff!
No matter what, you got this, George.
Obsessed as always and impressed by your genius and commitment to your craft and audience, forever one of my biggest inspirations
Damn Watsky, you really went off on this album!
Absolutely love❤
The visuals 😭❤️
Another track and video that are just soOo good!!! AND then being creative in ways that would be hard, if not impossible to do offline! 🔥🔥🔥
Always amazing! I tell everyone I know they should check out Watsky.
I love that Watsky's Gluteus Maximus got a trilogy shoutout lol. Dont be nice Advanced Placement Dot XXX
Woahh trippy, love it!
Can't wait for the LA Show!!!
new vibes are so good, also paper nihilist is perfect
Welcome Back! I love it all still. I hope you are Well Watsky
I'm a huge Watsky fan but I just can't understand a word in this style.
Ultra fantastic!
Oh my God this is insanely awesome. Feels like a Tool music video but also a cutscene from Myst
Sick video!!!
Sick video!
Thanks and safety to ya mate!!
Good music
First off all, speechless!
I love you, Watsky. I'm going to try to make it to the meet n greet in Denver if I can. Keep doing you. I hope to be around for your next first time..
RIP WATSKY, WELCOME XGEORGE
Sick nasty bruh
Thank you watsky
This is like if Adult Swim and Watsky worked on a video together!😆
COME TO GVL SC PLZ WATSKY ILY
Imma make all my drummer friends listen to this track. Deep in the pocket.
yayy
Intoxicating
This video is so sick
LETS GOOOOOO
Holy FUCK, this is so good. Like I've had the album on repeat since it dropped (I'm not kidding, aha) but the video just MAKES THIS. The vibe of the song, the chaotic yet somehow orderly sound, plus this imagery? Good lord, this is my favorite of the trilogy. Thank you for this. 🖤
REAL CAPTIONING love you
Very trippy
Yes
Watsky!
This video 🔥🔥🔥
Wish Adam Neely would do a video on this and the album
ta tremendo 🔥🔥
Fucking amazing
in the captions, when George says "simps" it reads "clowns" and he says "pimp" instead of "hit"
-watsky- George
1:51 walk reminds me of severance
This is weird. I like it.

This sums up my feelings perfectly.
Not bad, I can't say I love it. I personally like his older style a lot better. But, artist have to grow and I am super happy to see him grow into a much larger artist. Pale kid raps fast XD
dope

earth flat like a papadam.. Damn
If I tell you that I'm humble I'm Pinocchio And if I'm naval gazing while my nose'll grow That's a ritual sepukku so I'm sending ya back to your regularly scheduled bragadoccio Goddamn
👑👑👑
Yereeeee
Good job, George! You're no longer a stupidass, but I am indeed a Paper Nihilist in Advanced Placement.
This is different but its awesome!
banger
Woah, so early. Interesting aesthetic
I don't remember doing drugs today....but now I'm second guessing that. Anyone watched Destino by Salvador Dali and Walt Disney? Also super trippy.
so meny CLUESSSSSSSS
CC substitutes "clowns" for "simps" at 1:53 and I'm wondering if it's a clue or a stylistic thing or wtf
the Closed Caption only got "with the cookies", hehe.
FUCK YES
This should be called dmt
this is such a fuckin cool video
Yooo
𓂺
r u okay George
Cool music video but just like with the t pain song I feel like I'm struggling to really hear the lyrics. Dunno if it's just me .
