Neutral Milk Hotel - World Of Wild Beards Story Lyrics

Walking Wall of Beards Incorporated was a company that existed in the early 1900s in America where they would make these sound devices which were pleasing to beard hair and pubic hair, but they were inaudible to the human ear. And if you bought one and you turned it on in your house and all the pubic hair in your house and if you lived near a barber shop you were really doing good, all the hair that was laying around would form walls and walk around. So if you were living, like say in Philadelphia in the 1900s, it wouldn't be unusual to see a wall of hair walking around. And we wanted to do this post nervous breakdown gig in tribute to that company that was thousands of years ahead of it's time. And one day we will all look like fools for not having beard walls to walk around with. Cause in the future it's gonna be really hip. Well anyway I just wanted to explain that.
