lyrics

Held in a vice grip framing device
This is tale drawn out for eight seasons
See the wrinkles on skin, aging in HD
This is a timeline under the gun
Reroll the stock at the start of each episode
Those skeptical kids now full-on adults
This is a battle between art and commerce
A natural end versus network demands

Suit up! Suit up if you’re down with the Bro Code
Suit up! Suit up if you know what suits you
Aloha! Suit up just like Drive Like Jehu
Suit up if you sparkle in Canadian malls

This is a program aware of itself
A historicisation of the living present
His is an unreliable voice
A wealth of half-truths and liberal distortion
She is a cipher, a Rorschach projection
She cannot live up to expectations
They are a plot point, a gateway to entry
Sucking you in to their televised world

Suit up! Suit up if you’re down with the Bro Code
Suit up! Suit up if you know what suits you
Aloha! Suit up just like Drive Like Jehu
Suit up if you sparkle in Canadian malls

Nothing suits me like a suit!
