About The Judge

“The Judge” acts as the album’s upbeat ukulele track, much like “House of Gold” on "Vessel". While definitely a feel-good singalong great for live shows, this song also displays the serious philosophical and religious musings of Tyler Joseph. The verses in the song can be interpreted a number of different ways, each shedding new light onto the rest of the album. This song is the album’s halfway point, and as such, could almost be seen as an act break or interlude, with the next 7 songs introducing us to new themes. .

The Judge Lyrics

[00:27.82] Na, na, na, na, oh, oh
[00:30.66] Na, na, na, na, oh, oh
[00:33.56] Na, na, na, na, oh, oh
[00:39.06] When the leader of the bad guys sang
[00:41.81] Something soft and soaked in pain
[00:44.97] I heard the echo from his secret hideaway
[00:50.62] He must've forgot to close his door
[00:53.60] As he cranked out those dismal chords
[00:56.63] And his four walls declared him insane
[01:01.82] I found my way, right time, wrong place
[01:04.47] As I pled my case
[01:07.40] You're the judge, oh, no
[01:10.11] Set me free
[01:13.01] You're the judge, oh, no
[01:15.92] Set me free
[01:19.12] I know my soul's freezing
[01:21.90] Hell's hot for good reason
[01:24.79] So please, take me
[01:30.37] Na, na, na, na, oh, oh
[01:33.17] Na, na, na, na, oh, oh
[01:36.05] Na, na, na, na, oh, oh
[01:41.11] Three lights are lit, but the fourth one's out
[01:44.08] I can tell 'cause it's a bit darker than the last night's bout
[01:47.01] I forgot about the drought of light bulbs in this house
[01:49.32] So I head out
[01:50.84] Down a route I think is heading south
[01:52.54] But I'm not good with directions
[01:54.21] And I hide behind my mouth
[01:55.66] I'm a pro at imperfections
[01:57.09] And I'm best friends with my doubt
[01:58.33] And now that my mind's out
[01:59.67] And now I hear it clear and loud, I'm thinking
[02:01.66] "Wow, I probably should've stayed inside my house"
[02:04.30] I found my way, right time, wrong place
[02:06.93] As I pled my case
[02:09.87] You're the judge, oh, no
[02:12.68] Set me free
[02:15.56] You're the judge, oh, no
[02:18.47] Set me free
[02:21.60] I know my soul's freezing
[02:24.37] Hell's hot for good reason
[02:27.34] So please
[02:33.20] I don't know if this song
[02:35.98] Is a surrender or a revel
[02:39.05] I don't know if this one
[02:41.93] Is about me or the devil
[02:44.81] I don't know if this song
[02:47.66] Is a surrender or a revel
[02:50.71] I don't know if this one
[02:53.47] Is about me or the devil
[02:58.22]
[03:16.31] You're the judge, oh, no
[03:20.16] Set me free, oh, no
[03:24.09] You're the judge, oh, no
[03:27.90] Set me free, oh, no
[03:32.07] I know my soul's freezing
[03:35.90] Hell's hot for good reason
[03:39.83] So please
[03:47.10]
[03:58.41] Na, na, na, na, oh, oh
[04:01.41] Na, na, na, na, oh, oh
[04:04.28] Na, na, na, na, oh, oh
[04:07.20] Na, na, na, na, oh, oh
[04:08.95] You're the judge, oh, no
[04:11.65] Set me free
[04:14.66] You're the judge, oh, no
[04:17.65] Set me free
[04:20.58] You're the judge, oh, no
[04:23.43] Set me free
[04:26.32] You're the judge, oh, no
[04:29.03] Set me free, oh, oh
[04:32.79]
