Lyrics[]
Moxxie: Blitzo? *coughs twice* I-I can't see you! God, this smells awful! What's that music? Is that you!? Is this a prank? Because I swear to Sata-
Blitzo: It is no prank, bitch!
Moxxie: Hey! ...Why do you sound like that?
Blitzo: Because you, my precious little bitch-boy...
Moxxie: Stop it, sir!
Blitzo: ...are tripping balls!
Moxxie: No, what? How could this be?
I've never tried acid, shrooms, or DMT!
It's a bad trip. Oy gevalt!
Of course, Blitzo, this would be your fault!
My lungs are full of honesty
Would you promise me
That you won't judge?
Blitzo: Yes, bitch~
Moxxie: Not trying to divulge too much
But, I'm in too deep
So first of all, FUCK YOU!
Blitzo: What?!
Moxxie: This is just typical
Well, two can play at this game of dismay
'Cuz if you're here causing frustration
I'm torturing you in your hallucination!
(scene switches to Blitzo's hallucination, then switches back)
Moxxie: Why do you hurt me so?
Blitzo: I know~
Moxxie: Why must you push your friends away?
Blitzo: I push my friends away!
Moxxie: Why does it seem like a recurring thing
That you alienate with your toxic routine?
Blitzo: I don't know, eventually everyone goes!
Moxxie: Cuz you're thoughtless and cruel, and you'll end up alone!
(switches to Blitzo's hallucination then back again)
Blitzo: Why, Moxxie, why?
Have you held your true feelings inside?
Moxxie: I am scared of rejection...
Blitzo: Why, Moxxie why
Do you have Millie put it in your butt?
Moxxie: It gives me an erectio- Hey!
Blitzo: No need to hide
We accept your true feelings, so promise me
Moxxie: That I can do
Moxxie & Blitzo: to be true
Blitzo: The world is your anus, so peg it with honesty!
Moxxie: *groans*
Blitzo: I've been a jackass, it's true
Moxxie: You've been a jackass, it's true
Blitzo: But soon as we're back as ourselves
Moxxie & Blitzo: I will be a better friend
than I was before
Moxxie: Be better at speaking my mind~
And
Moxxie & Blitzo: Together, we can begin to become...
Fine
Moxxie: Blitzo? Blitzo? I... *coughs twice* I-I can't see you! God, this smells awful! What's that music? Is that you!? Is this a prank? Because, I swear to Sata-
Blitzo: It is no prank, Moxiferous!
Moxxie: Not even almost my name. Why do you sound like that?
Blitzo: Because you, my Moxiferous Rex III Esquire-
Moxxie: You know that's wrong!
Blitzo: -are tripping balls!
Moxxie: No, what? How could this be? I've never tried acid, shrooms, or DMT!
It's a bad trip. Oy gevalt!
Of course, Blitzo, this would be your fault!
My lungs are full of honesty
Would you promise me
That you won't judge?
Blitzo: I won't~
Moxxie: Not trying to divulge too much
But I'm in too deep
So first of all, FUCK YOU!

Moxxie: You've been a jackass, it's true
Blitzo: But soon as we're back as ourselves
Both: I will be a better Imp
Than I was before
Moxxie: Be better at speaking my mind~
Both: And together, we can begin to become

Trivia[]
- Blitzo is usually voiced by Brandon Rogers, but due to Rogers' claim of poor singing,[citation needed] Blitzo's lines in the song are sung by Michael Romeo Ruocco, who also is the voice of Agent One in the episode.
- However, Michael Romeo Ruocco was miscredited as Michael James Ruocco in the episode's end credits.[1]
- The song's setting is reminiscent of Phantom of the Opera, which serves as a reference to the musical and Moxxie's interest in it. Additionally, the animation and visuals invoke the musical sequences of Disney animated films.[2]
- This is the first duet of the series and the first to be performed by characters of the main cast.
- This is the first song and instance in the series wherein an alternate art style was implemented into an episode. For Moxxie's Bad Trip, this applies to the entire music sequence.
- This song reveals that Moxxie knows partial Yiddish as he exclaims "Oy, gevalt!" which roughly translates to "Oh, violence!".
- According to Sam Haft, the line "My precious little bitch boy" was improv on Michael's part after being asked to "talk to [Moxxie] like he's a little bitch".[3][4]
- Vivziepop mentioned that it was a challenge for her to write Doodle Moxxie's dialogue during Blitzo's part of the hallucination music sequence due to it being the first time she had to write in a specific accent.[5]
