==Background==
"The Chattering Lack of Common Sense" (previously known as The Chattering of Teeth and Lack of Common Sanity) is a song featuring GUMI and YOHIOloid by GHOST. It was originally uploaded on January 7, 2014, and has since been remastered twice.
According to the producer, the characters in the PV are two original characters they made when they were sixteen. The character with the bandages is known as Arc and the character with the longer hair is known as Say. GHOST noted that the characters' story was poorly thought-out and this song didn't fit them, remarking that they deserved better.

Original lyrics =
Basically, I bet you'll see
at first I'm not quite what I seem
I'll be sure to put a smile
on your silly, ugly faces
Everything is show and tell
The eyes don't fool and mess around
Hold our hands and sing along
Nothing lines up anymore
I could never believe
that people aren't what they seem
Everybody hides their face
How could I have noticed?
Nonetheless, we're all the same
that many things are in our heads
Show your smile and sing along
Nothing lines up anymore
Turn about and on an axis
Circulate the fear around you
Make a storm of tears and anger
Ah, my dear, don't worry 'bout me
You and i were made to dispose
We'll consume the things around us
Just accept the things you know and
look around
Wait
What is going on here?
I'm a little out of sorts
I can feel it slipping
Sanity and things that scare me
Why not try to let go?
I've been feeling out of order
Take it step by step, now
Take a good look, this is me
This is what I've come to be
This is what I've come to be
Close your eyes and watch the screen
display the things you dare not see
I'll be laughing evermore
Everything is show and tell
The eyes don't fool and mess around
Hold our hands and sing along
Nothing matters anymore

Cachinno, perdet eam, uertigine, ego sum
(Laughing loudly, losing it, whirling, I am)
Parare, exacuetur, currendo, ego sum
(Preparing, sharpening, moving around, I am)
Renidet usque ad vos, rideo, rideo, ego sum
(Grinning at you, laughing, laughing, I am)
Cachinno, perdet eam, uertigine, ego sum
(Laughing loudly, losing it, whirling, I am)
Oh, what the hell should I do?
I've been feeling out of order
I am slowly losing it
Sanity and things that see me
Face the reality,
I'm a little out of sorts
Wear a crooked smile, now
This is what I've come to be
This is what I shouldn't be
This is what I want to be

Basically, I bet you'll see
At first, I'm not quite what I seem
Everyday is just the same
Picking names, repeating faces
Everything is show and tell
And things are played off somewhat well
Holding hands, we're rather bored
Nothing lines up anymore
I could never understand
How first impressions go unplanned
Everybody hides their face
How could I have noticed?
Nonetheless, we're all the same
There's many things from where we came
Show a smile we're rather bored
Nothing lines up anymore
Turn around about a new view
Bring about the fear inside you
Make a storm of tears and anger
Nevermind, don't worry 'bout me
We've disposed of our contention
Do our best; avoid attention
"Just accept the things you know"
Well maybe so... wait...
What is going on here?
I'm a little out of sorts
I've been contemplating
Fallacies and things that scare me
"Why not try to let go?"
I've been feeling out of order
I'm allowing change so...
Take a good look, this is me
This is what I've come to be
This is what I've come to be
Look away 'cause we forgot
The apathy that's tied in knots
Hearing our every thought
(Ha ha ha ha ha)
Everything is show and tell
And things are played off somewhat well
All because we're rather bored
Nothing matters anymore
Moving along
Dancing along
Playing along
I am
Waiting for it
Preparing it
Looking for it
I am
Feeling around
Messing around
Looking at you
I am
Laughing a lot
Losing a lot
Looking at you
I am
Ah, what the hell should I do?
I've been feeling out of order
I've been sorta noticing
Fallacies and things that see me
Surely you've always known
I'm a little out of sorts
First impressions reborn
This what I've come to be
This is what I shouldn't be
This is what I want to be
