Standalone **2018** cut (**~1:02**, SoundExchange). **Halloween Special, Pt. 2** in the title: Tolkien's *Old Tom Bombadil* reduced to a trick-or-treat mantra in the pre-[*$WAMI$*](/albums/wami/) scatter, same lab-notebook era as [*Finding $D*](/albums/finding-d-remastered/) remaster activity.

There is no plot. The lyric is *I'm Tom Bombadil* on loop (~10 passes), same insistence grammar as later [*Shrimp Burrito*](/songs/shrimp-burrito/) (*it's time to eat a shrimp burrito* until true). Pt. 1 is not indexed on this site; only this SoundExchange single surfaced.
