Intro

Forest Fest, one show only, no refund

Verse 1

A teen surnamed Wang went camping for the zen

Then noon hit and the headliners came in

Hundreds of cicadas screaming his name

Four hours deep, front row in the grass

Loyalty level: absolutely unmatched

Chorus

Louder than your mama's car

Eighty-five decibels, no guitar

Nature said "unplug" and he took one for the fam

Bridge

Doctor Li Ji, safety announcement, calm:

"A choir past eighty-five can do real harm

Swollen ears, two weeks of quiet, then you're fine"

Verse 2

Cicadas dipped like the encore was done

He couldn't hear birds, couldn't hear his phone

Nature went ASMR and left him in silence

Reading notifications with full reliance

Chorus

He stayed for the encore, that's the cost

Front row for four hours, ears: lost

Then found, fully healed, back on the grind

Next forest fest, he's watching from behind

The internet has thoughts
