Got the hungies, got the munchies- Go to the store and get something crunchy- Got the hungies, got the munchies- Go to the store and get something crunchy- Got the hungies, got the munchies- Go to the store and get something crunchy- Gotta be salty- Gotta be sweet- You know that shit that'll rot your teeth- I got this appetite- It's keeping me up all night- Can't beat this appetite- Can't beat this appetite- I got this appetite- It's keeping me up all night- Can't beat this appetite- Can't beat this appetite- I got this appetite- It's keeping me up all night- Got the hungies, got the munchies- Go to the store and get something crunchy- Gotta be salty- Gotta be sweet- You know that shit that'll rot your teeth- Got the fire in my gut- It says 'oh boy get up'- I go to the fridge, open up- What goes with peanut-butter cups?- You've got to admire the drive- It's got it's own life- I'd like to make it mine- And shine those green lights- You've got to admire the drive- It's got it's own life- I'd like to make it mine- And shine those green lights-

Man, that water's chock full of a lotta Piranhas- Wish I'd known before I dipped my foot and lost my toes- Man, that water's chock full of a lotta Piranhas- Give them an inch and they'll strip your bones- And then eat them too- Until there's nothing left of you- Man, that water's chock full of a lotta Piranhas- And I don't wanna, I don't wanna be fish food- Do you?- They eat their young- They eat their young- They eat their young- They eat their young- [I'll go, I'll go against the stream] [I'll go, I'll go against the stream] [I'll go, I'll go against the stream] [I'll go, I'll go against the stream] Man, that water's chock full of a lotta Piranhas- [I'll go, I'll go against the stream] [I'll go, I'll go against the stream] [I'll go, I'll go against the stream] [I'll go, I'll go against the stream] Man, that water's chock full of a lotta Piranhas- And I don't wanna, I don't wanna be fish food- Why? Just to know if they approve?-

Avec « Pox Calypso », Salopecia illustre sa résistance obstinée contre les nombreuses tendances pernicieuses de notre époque aberrante.
« Pox Calypso » fait référence à cette danse macabre mêlant isolement, méfiance et ennui à laquelle nous avons été confronté pendant les vagues de confinements suite à l’apparition de la Covid-19. A chaque chanson de l’album, son propre univers, son propre protagoniste et sa propre voix. Salopecia conjuguent les influences qui pogotent en lui : hip-hop, grunge et électro s'entremêlent de mille façons dans chacun des titres, mais toujours avec la marque salopecienne ponctuant de grincements, grognements, gargouillis et glottis des grooves hypnotiques que ce batteur de formation manipule avec brio.

Pour accompagner l’ambiance apocalyptique de « Pox Calypso », Léon Maret, prolifique auteur de bande dessinée et illustrateur, convoque un imaginaire eschatologique où le grotesque du trait répond à l’absurde du monde que Robin entaille de ses textes. Ainsi par exemple des poissons voraces qu'on y aperçoit en référence à « A Lotta Piranhas », chanson où l’industrie culturelle est personnifiée par des Piranhas assoiffés de sang.
