Story behind the song
the 20-40-60 rule is used in medicine to approximate a person's fluid compartment volumes (actually, it's particular to men's compartments, but that's besides the point). this song is about determining someone's "compartment values" from a distance, and wanting to get to know that person better.
Lyrics
since the day i saw you
i wanted to get through
that i want to call you
and ask you 'what it do?'
you make me want to jump up
and raise a ferret too
an awkward mammal for some
but not for me and you.
i hardly know you
but i promise that will change
because i'm asking questions
and keeping them all strange.
so i write this music
in hopes that you might find it
but i'll never show it
it tells too much, it's slippage.
sometimes i get excited
but mostly just all right
and when the rain is pouring
know it's sunshine deep inside.
