Philly Pies - The Shelling (Dirtbag Jess)

about

track by C-3PieO

lyrics

Note: This song was inspired by the Pies Discord riffing on a less-wholesome but still lovable version of Jessica Telephone, specifically conceived as a teenager from the late 1990s (or perhaps the 2080s with heavy late-1990s influences). This version of JT inspired a set of wiki edits that generated much discourse, and was ultimately reconciled into lore via a combination of the Interdimensional Rumor Mill and a storyline about the effects of a personified time-traveling quantum waveform being trapped inside a peanut shell by an eldritch legume god.

VERSE 1
A
Jessica Telephone always

A
wished that she could be good

A G D
at something other than blaseball

A
Jessica Telephone never

A
thought that she’d be stuck

A G D
inside of a gigantic peanut

A
While inside the peanut

A
Jessica decided to learn

A G D
all the words to the song Rap God

A
When she came back out

A
everyone was surprised to learn

A G D
that Jessica was now a dirtbag

VERSE 2
A
Jessica was pecked free

A
of the shell by birds

A G D
and when she busted out yeah it was so cool

A
From that day Jessica

A
became the envy of all the other

A G D
kids who went to her school

A
Anyone who listens

A
Jessica shows them how she learned

A G D
every word to the song Rap God

A
Now she’s shelled again and it’s


A
anyone’s guess what song she’s gonna

A G D
come out knowing this time
