[Silence]
[Instrumental, Guitar, Organ, Synth, Bass, Percussion, Drums]
[Intro]
[Instrumental Intro: Fast Surf Guitar, Punchy Bass, Organ Stabs, Driving Drums]
[Spoken Vocal]
Ready?
Here it comes…
Another one!
(Better run!)
[Refrain]
Whack! (A mole) E!
Not (Exactly)
Close enough
(To call the bluff)
Head in the hole
(Or… Whack!)
The goal
(Whacked!)
[Verse 1]
One pops up, another drops
Thinking somehow the problem stops
Plug one leak, ignore the next
Life becomes another test
[Chorus]
Whack-a-mole!
(Here we go!)
Round and round
(The same old show)
Treat the symptom
(Not the cause)
Playing by
(The old applause)
Swing again
(Miss the point)
Time to fix
(The broken joint)
[Instrumental]
[Refrain]
Whack! (A mole) E!
Not (Exactly)
Close enough
(To call the bluff)
Head in the hole
(Or… Whack!)
The goal
(Whacked!)
[Wild Guitar Solo]
[Driving Bass, Organ Swells, Heavy Drums, Playful Synth]
[Verse 2]
Build a wall against the tide
Another river changes sides
Fight one fire, another starts
Playing games with loaded cards
[Bridge]
… understanding
The whole disaster
(The need… comin’ on faster)
Cause and effect
(Link as one)
That’s the race
(To be won)
[Breakdown]
[Minimal Beat, Deep Bass, Spoken Vocal]
You can…
Keep swinging…
Or, I mean…
Fix the machine…
Making…
The moles appear.
(Here)
[Final Chorus]
Whack! (A mole) E!
Not (Exactly)
Close enough
(To call the bluff)
Head in the hole
(Or… Whack!)
The goal
(Whacked!)
See the pattern
(That’s the key)
Solve the cause
(Set it free)
[Outro]
[Instrumental Outro: Organ Hits, Surf Guitar, Crowd Shouts, Drum Finale]
Whack!
Whack!
Whack…
…or maybe…
Stop feeding the moles.
(Defeating the goals)
