Changes: World Of Max

Revision as of 00:18, 12 August 2021

World of Max is a song featured in the Telltale episode Bright Side of the Moon. At the end of that episode, everyone on earth is hypnotized to be like Max; the lyrics describe this situation and give a detailed poetic take on Max' personality.
The song plays over the end credits of the episode, where it is combined with scenes of most of the characters from Season One behaving like Max before he knocks them out with his boxing glove.

An instrumental version plays in the main menu of Save The World: Remastered

Lyrics by Dave Grossman
Performed by Jared Emerson-Johnson

Lyrics

Stick a fork in, open wide
Everyone is Max inside
Full of colorful guts and habits
Cryptic world of cryptic rabbits

Underutilized impulse control
Rabid rampant junk food black hole
Loopy cravings, rigmarole
Feel his giant feet right in your soul

Mania, Sloth, Irreverence, Excess
Gluttony, Revelry, Violence, and Selfishness
Flags of pure unfettered Id brashly unfurled...
It's a Max, Max, Max, Max, Max, Max world!

[scatting]

Everyone's a sandwich of naivety and cynicism
Everyone's a salad of disint'rested fanaticism
Everyone's a walking beaker of potential cataclysm
Fa, lalalalalalalalalala!
Everyone's refracted through a protoplasm prism

Stick a spork in, deep inside
Everyone is Maxified
By hypnosis, or by nature
What's the difference? Just nomenclature

Shake your friend's adorable paws
Careful of his powerful biting jaws
We're a mix of cop and felon
Wearing heads like ripened watermelons

Mania, Sloth, Irreverence, Excess
Gluttony, Revelry, Violence, and Selfishness!
Flags of pure unfettered Id brashly unfurled...
It's a Max, Max, Max, Max, Max, Max world!

[scatting]

Reality is tenuously tied up at a sagging wharf
Morality in motion like a squirmy burlap bag of dwarfs
Formality's impossible when all of us are lagomorphs
Lagomorph? Oh lagomorph. Oh, what the hell's a lagomorph?
It's kind of like a rodent but for minor technicalities

And so are you and I and every major nationality
We're garrulously social anti-social personalities
A conscience is a curiously useless abnormality
A useless abnormality, a useless abnormality
A growth, of sorts. A growth of sorts. Of course! Of course! We're lagomorphs!

Unmitigated unreserved unquestionable excess
Larkiness, sharkiness, snarkiness, and selfishness
Flags of pure unfettered Id brashly unfurled...
It's a Max, Max, Max, Max, Max, Max world!

[scatting]

Oh yeah!
