Lyrics:
Isn’t it fun to be alone
Isn’t it what you want
Isn’t it something you’ve been looking for
Isn’t it?
Isn’t it?

Honey thinks I should take it slow
Isn’t that all I know? (Yeah)
Slow to a stop and I think I might stick to the road
Like, call a tow
Take me home

I thought I was better alone
Didn’t see people a lot
Now I’m the walls of a room
Now I’m the hands of a clock
I feel like the love that I get
Is one in the same with the sauce
I feel like I bought all my friends
Am I your bud or your boss?

(I thought I was better alone, didn’t see people a lot)
(Fun to be alone)
(Now I’m the walls of a room, now I’m the hands of a clock)
(This is just what I want)
(I feel like the love that I get is one in the same with the sauce)
(This is exactly what I’m looking for)
(I feel like I bought all my friends)
(Am I your bud or your boss?)
(Isn’t it?)

Don’t wanna get lost in the haze
Don’t wanna appear in the news
Been thinking of running away from things that I don’t wanna lose
I’m wanting to beg them to stay
I’m wanting to be who they choose
But still I keep pushing away from people I don’t wanna lose
I’m keeping it cool by the way
I’m storing my head in the closet
‘Cause you matter more than my brain
Wardrobe: coldest place in my home
I’m not gonna let it decay
I’m not tryna lose my deposit
I’m not gonna beg you to stay
Yuh, yuh, I’m letting it go
(Isn’t it?)
Ohhh

Isn’t it fun to be alone?
Isn’t it what you want?
Isn’t it something you’ve been looking for?
Isn’t it fun?
Mmmm, Mmmmmmmm

Me: *has a highly specific emotion*
Robbie: *makes a song about it*

[oly_olympiadis]

"Been thinking of running away from things that I don't wanna lose" damn. that hit hard.

[finneth]

"am i your bud or your boss?" is so prominent to me because Robin's always said hes made music to make friends cus he was lonely as a kid but now these people work for him and are industry professionals but he has to be their boss and pay them. So its like are we friends cus you wanna be here or are we friends cus youre getting paid?

[jezpennington]

THANKS FOR HAVING ME TEAM. This was so fun to animate 🧡💙

[Oliverworldbuilds]

I'm loving Robbie bringing out his androgynous side here. They've changed so much <3333
The animated bits on this are really pretty, the colors and everything. The songs in this EP are more electric, I think more so than Worm Food, which is a cool new adaptation.

[benjaminmlieber]

helped Robin make this awesome video :) rly proud of it. all hail the magic conch!

[mariamotta]

Squidward's Cavetown was the best for me, it's so cute ☺

[AmeYoi]

Fisheye scenes highlight how cute cavetown is, the wait was worth it 🩵

"Been thinking of running away from things that I don’t wanna lose. I’m wanting to beg them to stay, I’m wanting to be who they choose, but still I keep pushing away from people I don’t wanna lose."
that hit way too close to home for me not to comment abt.

[potatosloth]

He's in their Squidward Era and honestly love them for that

[idkwhat_imdoing_]

as a clarinet player, the way the clarinet was being held brought tears to my eyes

[leafy]

Anytime i feel alone, sad, or unsure Cavetown releases a song with that topic. It helps. And he shows us we are not alone.

[t.illy.]

all my worries disappear when Robbie is here ★

[lhuvbugg]

IVE HEARD THE WHOLE EP ALREADY BUT IM SO FREAKING EXITED

[velvet.muffin]

WE GETTIN OUT OF BIKINI BOTTOM WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥💯🔥🗣🗣🗣💯

[jessyklaassen]

“You’re so perfect that it kinda hurts my feelings” from “let them know they’re on your mind” is a real lyric that suits you in my perspective cause you are literally perfect and no person is like more perfect. I am crying

[toadstool]

can we all just appreciate how all of Robbie's music videos don't look the same at all- some are animated, acted out, some are a beautiful picture on the cover- all are so lovely ❤🐸🍄

[-MansBestFriend]

His outfits always amaze me they just get better every time.

[ElenaComel-yl]

Whenever I feel like I can't explain my emotions I find a Cavetown songs that describes those emotions perfectly and it makes me feel much better and less alone each time.
This video bought me so many memories from my childhood with my cousins ♡
