lyrics
Hey kids.
It’s the Stay-In-Place boat.
Got a cool little tune to teach you how to move graphs left and right.
I hope you enjoy it.
It’s gonna be real, real wet.
Here it comes.
It goes a little like this:
Add to x, go left!
Add to x, go left!
Add to x, guess what happens next,
you add to x and go left!
You should always remember which way is left
whether you're doing crime
or doing meth!
If you don't remember which way is left
then there will be nothing left
Add to x, go left!
Add to x, go left!
Add to x, guess what happens next,
you add to x and go left!
See? That wasn't too hard.
I'm sure you'll get the hang of it now.
But I bet you're wondering...
what happens if you *subtract from x?*
Well, you're about to find out, and you're not gonna like it.
You know what? You've done yourself a huge disservice.
Subtract from x, go right.
Subtract from x, go right.
There is nothing you can do to prevent the blight.
Subtract from x, go right.
Subtract from x, go right.
Subtract from x, go right.
You thought you could hide from HIS horrible might.
Subtract from x, go right.
Subtract from x, go right.
Say your very last goodnight.
Subtract... from x... go... right.
Add to x, go left!
Add to x, go left!
Add to x, guess what happens next!
You add to x and go left.
It’s the Stay-In-Place boat.
Got a cool little tune to teach you how to move graphs left and right.
I hope you enjoy it.
It’s gonna be real, real wet.
Here it comes.
It goes a little like this:
Add to x, go left!
Add to x, go left!
Add to x, guess what happens next,
you add to x and go left!
You should always remember which way is left
whether you're doing crime
or doing meth!
If you don't remember which way is left
then there will be nothing left
Add to x, go left!
Add to x, go left!
Add to x, guess what happens next,
you add to x and go left!
See? That wasn't too hard.
I'm sure you'll get the hang of it now.
But I bet you're wondering...

Subtract from x, go right.

Subtract from x, go right.
Subtract from x, go right.
Subtract from x, go right.

Subtract from x, go right.
Subtract from x, go right.
Say your very last goodnight.
Subtract... from x... go... right.
Add to x, go left!
Add to x, go left!
Add to x, guess what happens next!
You add to x and go left.

Melvins fans will flip for this lost ’90s indie classic, with its sludgy guitars, hypnotic rhythms and irresistible hooks. Essential.
