An explanation of the lyrics' references to Stutzbow and Touhou lore:
I'm thinking of a number that is between my buttocks <- bowman's credit score
And that number's not between 450 and 850
With nothing but greed capturing my heart
Will no one just go reach inside, cast away my bad score

Missing and unfound, undefined fantastic score <- undefined fantastic object
Can't reach this debtful soul, my subterranean fruity pebble <- fruity pebbles jingle, subterranean animism
Seven hundred twenty desires denied by <- ten desires
The embodiment of the demonic Stutzbow <- embodiment of scarlet devil

Reptile masquerade from the one debts left unpaid <- chameleon, hopeless masquerade
An impossible ball catch, one hundred percent delayed <- bowman can't catch, 100%, impossible spell card
An immaterial coat missing on this freezing soul <- william henry harrison, immaterial and missing power
The imperishable rice challenging my sinful hopes <- rice challenge, imperishable night
I must keep escaping far from this perfect blosssomed yard <- perfect cherry blossom, backyard fun
Its phantasmagoric view of penumbral small white hounds <- radiation is now on youtube, phantasmagoria of flower view
Scarlet rhapsody police, running rotten to the core <- scarlet weather rhapsody, good cop red cop

I won't let them or the Stutzbow destroy my credit score

Bumper to bumper I flee, from the brothers that believe <- bumper to bumper
That my sinful soul can solve the pasta's antinomy <- antinomy of common flowers
Through idioms japanese, untranslatable I feel <- an apple disaster
The Stutzbow will never stop, chasing me with endless glee <- gamebro
Meme numbers won't appear, not a miracle, just fright <- MEME NUMBERS
As I near my final fate, my endless numeric night
Texas history forlorn, in limbo its long lost lore <- texas history, urban legend in limbo
In this realm never forgiven, not my bad credit score

[...]

Life insurance I can't pay, or a good bed to hide in <- in bed
Is there no place to run to, a safe haven for my sins
Desperation swallows me, I feel wholly unprepared
From the Bowman I can't flee, from the Stutzman mercy's rare
Soon the brothers will catch up, meat cubes rising in the night <- bumper to bumper
Their goal easy to discern, start an unwinnable fight
My bad credit and my life, forfeit to their endless war
A war started with a thought, thinking of a credit score
