poison
then cook or chick
you can get salmonella from other animals besides chicken so chick prolly not as strong as cook
however, you get it from undercooking, so almost the opposite of cook
poison
cook
pass
chick
I'll leave chick as the backup, but this has to be right.

1999 - 3
Confident about time.
For some reason I've got revolution as being strong but I can't put it into words.
1999 was a prince song but I can't see anything that connects to that.
What happened in 1999 other than the turn of the millennium? Why that year?
You can root 1999 but you don't get a nice number.
1999 pounds is not really a thing.
1999 is thr year that Fight Club came put I think.
That would put Revolution, Plot and Bomb higher, but that could be too much of a stretch
I had time and revolution as my top two as well. And agreed, not sure why revolution other than it just speaking to me.
nfi on the 3rd, will have to think a bit.
Time + Washington would be a date connected with Washington so I don't think it's that.
Time + Bomb would be the year of a famous war or bomb attack.
Cat and Chick I think we can rule put because otherwise mythical would be creature/animal 3/4.
Time + Revolution would be clock or something so if it is those 2 then the 3rd must be specific to 1999

Nothing is jumping out
I don't know the lyrics of the song 1999 beyond the chorus.
Could there be a prominent lyric among these words?
Yeah, time/revolution/washington would pretty clearly be 1776 and bomb instead of Washington would be something like what you said.
The above is also kind of why I’m not into plot. But plot also makes the most sense for me out of the remaining list.
I’m not even sure about Revolution tbh, but we’re both feeling it for some reason. Is the album 1999 is on named Revolution (or are any of Prince’s albums named Revolution)? I just wish we had a firm reason to think it’s ours.
Anywho, maybe we just bold time and revolution for now to keep from delaying much longer if we’re wrong.
I think the album was 1999
I'm happy to bold our 2 words for now and then proceed from there.
If Revolution is wrong then we might get a different perspective

subconscious knows all
1999 was by Prince and the Revolution, not just Prince
it's his band's name

Wow, I thought Revolution was a lock and was annoyed they guessed it despite not seeing the connection to Prince.
wow; no clue what 1999 was for then
hail - 2
Pretty clear signal that chick is right.
Pound and snowman? I don't love it, but I think I like all the other words less.
My first thought was pound and snowman but isn’t that just ice?
Maybe bomb for hail?
