about

It's a prequel.

If anyone is confused, just ask John Darnielle. He'll understand.

lyrics

You’re not getting that sandwich you wanted
No I won’t make it for you
You’re not getting that sandwich you wanted
You can just starve

Or you can go to the store if you want to
They have sandwiches there
But I’d rather that you didn’t
So you’d turn into a skeleton.

Skeletons can’t
fail to wash my favorite mug for three weeks in a row, they don’t
give me money for takeout but forget the tip (I looked like an asshole)
They’re a pile of bones only good for hanging in a science teacher’s room
But I’m not teaching science, nor would I want to.

I don’t ask for much, dear, you know me,
But one more point on the whole skeleton thing
Could a skeleton forget to buy milk, when milk is all I ask for?

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

You’re not getting that sandwich
And I’m not taping your shows for tonight
In fact, I went into the DVR menus
And cancelled scheduled tapings.
