Hear Turnstile’s undercover original from I Think You Should Leave Season 3
“Listening,” allegedly performed by The Everything-You-Knows, appears in the new season’s fourth episode.
I Think You Should Leave, the sketch comedy sensation created by mad genius Tim Robinson, has returned for its third season. All six episodes of the new season premiered Tuesday, May 30 on Netflix, and the fourth features a surprise, undercover, audio-only guest appearance.
In a sketch called “Children’s Choir” co-starring Robinson and Biff Wiff (familiar to fans of the show as Detective Crashmore from season two), the voice of Turnstile’s Brendan Yates swims into focus over chunky pop-punk power chords. The song, which has led Wiff’s character Shane to the epiphany that there are “no rules,” induces in him a sense of lawlessness that makes him trash a classroom at his grandchild’s school. The song, “Listening,” is officially credited to the fictional band The Everything-You-Knows. But Netflix has openly admitted to the fact that the track is written and performed by Yates and his Turnstile bandmates Pat McCrory, Daniel Fang, and Franz Lyons.
Check out the song in context — a montage in which Robinson runs away from the mayhem of the ruined classroom back into the school’s auditorium just in time to catch his daughter’s rapped solo — and read its full lyrics via the Netflix blog Tudum.
