There’s a new Turnstile song out in the universe, but you may not realize it as it was released under a fake name and is a bit of a jump from the style of music they traditionally play. The song is called “Listening” and it was credited to “The Everything-You-Knows” when it recently turned up in the latest season of Netflix’s Tim Robinson-starring comedy series I Think You Should Leave.
Per Netflix, songwriting credits on the track go to Brendan Yates, Pat McCrory, Daniel Fang and Franz Lyons. it leans a little more on the emo / pop-punk side and even includes a rap interlude as performed by Alexandra Ornelas.
Within the episode itself, Tim and his “shirt brother” Biff Wiff meet at a fourth-grade choir recital, with Wiff telling Robinson that he’s “all fucked up” over hearing a song and trashed an entire classroom. Eventually Robinson frees himself from the situation, racing to catch the recital that includes a rap solo set to the song in question. Robinson reportedly has been a fan of the band and struck up a friendship, which led to the uncredited musical turn.

The Everything-You-Knows (aka Turnstile), “Listening”
The Everything-You-Knows, “Listening” Lyrics (per Netflix)
I’ve been asleep for too long
My eyes are opening.
Don’t want to be a puppet
Just singing on a string.
Not going to play by the rules
I’m done with listening.Chorus:
Everything you know
Is all just for show
(I don’t wanna go on listening)
Suits and ties
Feed me lies
(I don’t wanna go on listening)[Rap interlude performed by Alexandra Ornelas]
Hey that’s OK
That’s all right
Everything is great and everything’s tonight
If you wanna feel the feeling
You wanna feel the fire
Then that’s all right
Cuz you don’t gotta retire
If you wanna be great
Then you gotta be good
Do it now in the neighborhoodEverything you know
Everything you know
Everything you know
It’s all just a show
(I don’t want to go on listening)
Suits and ties
Feed me lies
(I don’t wanna go on listening)
Everything you know
Everything you knowEverything you know
Everything you know
Everything you knowIt’s all just a show
(I don’t wanna go on listening)
Suits and ties
Feed me lies
(I don’t wanna go on listening)
Everything you know
Everything you know
(I don’t wanna go on listening)
Everything you know
Everything you know.
