Liner Notes

#improvisation #humour #experimental

A rare in-person collab. Everyone wore perfectly jaunty hats and this masterpiece is the result. There was also an alien involved, but that's another story.

Shout-out to Beardy the lizard who crawled around for inspiration.

Lyrics

So why are you so high strung? Just how I ended up coming out.

But why am I winding you up? Just the way you and me get along.

Is my chill harshing you out? Sometimes.

Sometimes you look at me like I kicked you in the balls with my words! I just don’t understand.

Sometimes I feel like you think I’m treating you like a bookmark!

Sometimes I feel like I treat you like a piece of lemon meringue pie.

And sometimes you look at me like I’m the ring that marries Saturn on Friday nights every week.

I just don’t understand. Why do you always look at me that way when I do the thing?

But the thing is everything! You’ve gotta do the thing. I know I know I know!

My fingernails on this chalkboard should make you happy! In an ideal world, darling, this chalkboard wouldn’t even need to exist!

I think we’re missing some calcium. Maybe that’s why you’ve been licking the shopping list off of the slate recently!

Speak for yourself.

Stop stealing the gypsum!

Ohhhhhhhh! The pain oh I feel it!

I wish I could be an encyclopedia salesman again. Those were the days!

You must never throw your National Geographics. I have such a big collection I can’t even step into my den.

Thank you for the hat. Now I feel like I can fully be me. And as it happens, you can now fully be you.

It’s true, I’ve been hiding my accent. There’s the person I’ve come to know and love.

Can you actually ever really know yourself? I reckon not, darling I reckon not!

We’ve all got our inner pirate goddesses inside of us. I love the way you say stuff.

It’s my relilililililyilll. I like to believe in my relililions.

I do feel like I'm getting close to climaxing. Just stare at the screeeeeeeen 👀

Enjoying this free form improvisation of theatrical and music elements. Wonderfully strange, whimsical, surreal and reminds me of a ancient archival radio play from Europe in the late 50's (though I don't think I've actually heard one of those...)

Shopping list licking is highly underrated. Calci-yum! Very engaging.

Only 38 seconds in and I’ declaring this hilarious. What is it that’s in the water up there. Love the laughter. You all sure know how to pass the time.

The opening two lines really drew me into the story. Fantastic collaboration and song!
