Scope: this supplement uses the 39 LP/DS lyric strings and 16 LTAP Owner’s Manual lyric witnesses currently encoded in the wiki. EGOTERRORISM, Peak Arousal and other musical texts have separate evidence states and are not silently treated as complete here.
Examples
LA St. Lighting gives blitzin, flangers, moogerfoogers, ragers; Horus gives undeclareable; Reverse God Zoom gives audemartian; Prove That You’re Human gives leechmilk; LTAP’s Impro gives looky-looing; HORSE writes stutter into the lexical body as h-h-h-h-head.
Why songs generate different words
In prose, semantic collision can produce a word. In songs, phonetic collision is often enough: a rhyme or consonant cluster brings in a new word-family, which brings in a new semantic field. Proper names, brands and place names therefore behave partly as sonic hardware.
