Skipper

'Skipper' by Alex G is a 2014 alternative track from the album 'DSU'. The lyrics address someone called Dave in a teasing, repetitive series of questions, circling around the idea of being a skipper or a tripper and pushing at odd practical imagery, including whether he needs a bag and whether he eats the rind. One line makes it plain: “Dave, are you a skipper?” It has the feel of a casual interrogation that keeps returning to the same prompts, as if the song wants an answer more than it wants a story.
