Regarding the Diamond Sundae thing...
I don't have it but I hear something like "...stopped on a dime..." in that phrase.

I seem to be the only person that hears "Like one would hope but never really expect to see in a place like this" in the first verse. Anyone agree with me?

well im not saying birkenstocks, but i do believe we are missing a part of the story of how he found himself in the UFO.... Something grabbed him or hit him with a laser and pulled him in, but that part about getting pulled into the ufo is in the first part, i beieve, we just cant make it out. Cause the second half has him inside the ufo. Anyone agree?

i disagree, maynard has said that the song is about the music, just as much as the lyrics, like you can take away just as from the music as you can the lyrics
so maybe its his intention for us to not clearly understand the lyrics

That could imply the UFO. Or it could imply a room on the UFO. Or a room anywhere in this guy's mind.
I mean, does it anywhere in the song actually imply that he definitely got taken on to a UFO?

Ive mentioned this before, but people dont pay attention for some reason.

I have this feeling too as I've spent a lot of time today with this song on headphones and while I was trying to ascertain the lyrics I decided to try listening in only one earphone and then the other... and I just came away even more confused than before I tried it lol. They're really giving interpretation fans a run for their money with this song. I love it!
I hear "I knew right then I was gonna die but something right on my Birkenstocks made (can't hear) at me... Holy fucking shit!"

just got another show with rosetta and i swear he says "a stealth banana split the sky like ropeadope , I never expected to see it in a place like this. Does rope-a-dope make any sense? and another thing that doesnt make sense, why would he never expect to see a UFO or something split the sky while he is working at the most secret goverenment installation working with UFO's? that line just doesnt make sense... i would think that would be the only place i would expect to see something amazing happen.

Maybe he was implying that Area 51 is all hype in his opinion. As in, if you're going to see an alien it certainly isn't going to be @ Area 51.

Okay I've decided that it's effectively impossible to cop what the lyrics REALLY are for the first verses. And I think that's the great part because it really defines the mood of the song, the totally-fucked-out-of-it sense to it. Every time I listen to it I hear something different. I don't have a clue what the fuck's going on. God it's fucking great guys.

I'm pretty sure it is Diamond Sundae if only because the verse also refers to Krispy Kremes and Banana Split (although the Banana Split is in a kind of oblique way).

Just an idea. May well be wrong, but I thought it was worth sharing ...
Try listening to "GYROscopes and infrared" as "TELEscopes and infrared". Might just be possible (I can hear either depending on what I listen for), and it would have more meaning within the context of the song as these would be two devices the character might wish to use to help him find the UFO again to regain his lost message! I mean wtf is he going to do with a gyroscope anyway?

Alrighty then, Picture this if you will
10 to 2 AM, and actually eating an emptied out box of Krispy Kremes
at my need-to-know post just outside Area 51,
contemplating the whole
"chosen people thankin' me" just then a flaming, stealth banana split
the sky, like, wide open, I never really expect to see it in a place like
this.
I did radical donuts on a dime in something right on my Birkenstocks,
then yelping, "holy fucking shit!"
Then the X-Files angle led to some kind of blue-green jackie shit
with Isabella Rossellini lips with breath that reeked
and when she chomped into the Soma making the sound
HA-da-da bah-DA-da-da bah-NA-na-da-what-hap-pened-to-my-bug-eyes,
my gaping jaw,
and my sweaty L. Ron Hubbard upper lip,
and all I could think was,
"I hope my Partner doesn't notice that I pissed my fuckin' pants."
So light... his way... like an APPARITION,
will you help me crying out,
FUCK ME! IT'S GOTTA BE!
DEAD HEAD! CHEMISTRY!
The blotter got right up on top of me!
It's got me seeing E motherfucking T!
and after calming me down with some orange slices
and some fetal spooning
the ET revealed to me his singular purpose.
He said, "You are the Chosen One,
the One who will deliver the message.
A message of hope to those who choose to hear it
and a warning for those who do not."
Me. The Chosen One?
They chose me, and I didn't graduate from fuckin' high school.
you had better
you had better
you had better
you had better listen
then he looked life through me
with somniferous almond eyes
don't even know what that means
must remember to write it down
this is so real
like the time they floated away
see my heart is pounding cause this shit never happens to me
Can't Breathe right now
it was so real
like i woke up in wonderland
a sort a bit terrifying
i don't want to be all alone
when i tell this story
and can anyone tell me why,
all of a sudden the peanuts dance
(i swear that this is it because one of his vocals is delayed thats why you hear two syllables in dance.)
will i ever be coming down
this is so real, finally its my lucky day
see my heart is racing
cause this shit never happens to me
Can't breathe right now
You believe me don't you
please believe what i just said
see the dead aint tourin
and this wasn't all in my head
see they took me up by the hand
then they invited me right in
then they showed me something
i don't even know where to begin
Strapped down to my bed
feet cold and eyes red
and i'm out of my head
am i alive or am i dead?
can't remember what they said
God Damn Shit the bed
Hiiiigh...Hiiigh...igh.iiiiiigh...high..igh.iiiiig h ...hiiiiigh..hiiiigh....
(its hard to hear exactly what he's but this is what i hear)
leave here alone
i am all alone
i didn't want to be here
i didn't want to know
(I hear something at 8:13) Appear (or) up here x28
overwhelmed as one would be placed in my position
Such a heavy burden, now to be the one
born to bear and read to all the details of our ending
to write it down for all the world to see
but i forgot my pen
shit the bed again
typical
Strapped down to my bed
feet cold and eyes red
i'm out of my head
am i alive or am i dead?
sunkist and sudaffed
gyroscopes and infrared
won't help the brain dead
can't remember what they said
God Damn Shit the bed
and Iiiiiiiii cant remember what they said to me
i can't remember what they said to make me out to be a hero
can't remember what he said
But help me....can't remember what it said
Don't know, won't know (x12)
God Damn Shit the bed

i didn't want to be here
i didn't want to know
(I hear something at 8:13) Appear (or) up here x28
overwhelmed as one would be placed in my position
Such a heavy burden, now to be the one
born to bear and read to all the details of our ending
to write it down for all the world to see
but i forgot my pen
shit the bed again
typical
Strapped down to my bed
feet cold and eyes red
i'm out of my head
am i alive or am i dead?
sunkist and sudaffed
gyroscopes and infrared
won't help the brain dead
can't remember what they said
God Damn Shit the bed
and Iiiiiiiii cant remember what they said to me
i can't remember what they said to make me out to be a hero
can't remember what he said
But help me....can't remember what it said
Don't know, won't know (x12)
God Damn Shit the bed

does anyone agree that in the first verse he's saying "...a flaming stealth banana split the sky LIKE ONE WOULD HOPE BUT NEVER REALLY EXPECT TO SEE IN A PLACE LIKE THIS" because i hear it perfectly and it makes more sense than any other interpretation i've seen

chosen people thankin' me" just then a flaming, stealth banana split
the sky, like, wide open, I never really expect to see it in a place like
this."
I see alot of things that say this, but I think he is really saying "Skyline."

Listen to the song at a slower pace. (I am doing this on Windows media and it's way easier.) I could post what I hear later tonight.

I didn't say I thought it was. When I posted the lyrics earlier, I was just copy/paste for the Skyline thing. It definatly is Chosen people thing.

When just then a flaming stealth banana split the sky like rope-a-dope (one would hope), but never really expect to see in a place like this.

Yeah, that's a good alternative to 'split the sky like wide open.'
