about

This song is a goofy, chaotic mix of improvised voice lines that overlap each other. I used the project files to help transcribe these difficult lyrics (and attempted to transcribe everything, for better or worse.)

It's about the process of songwriting - the struggle, the tedium, but also the joy of doing it with someone else, and the feeling of accomplishment you get when it's done. It's near and dear to our hearts!

The working title for the project was "plant melody."

You don't need to have a plan to make art! Just do it!

lyrics

Yeah
Bom bom x3

-my ramblings, you can, like, splice them, and-
(I'll eat your bones x2)
Oh, it keeps going (Oh, it keeps going)
Aww, the audio track's labeled Babe (Yeah!)
(I'll eat your hair x2)
It loops, it loops, while still recording over it
(Your hands are cold x2)

Oh, that could actually- okay, you know what?
(I'll eat your bones, I'll eat your bones now)
That- we could just do that (Mhm)
(I'm sorry, you're a robot- ah, cold, cold!)
And then I can get one good take
(I'll eat your bones, I'll eat your bones now)
(Babe in a starship)

(So it's going to keep looping those) (She's cute)
Oh, it's playing the old recording, though (A cute astronaut)
(Bones, bones, bones, bones)
(I'm in your house x2)
(This Babe is cute, that's Babe, she's cute)
It is a vocal stim (Thank you)
(I'm in your bones x2)
(Babe is really cute, Babe is acute)
(I'm in your house, I'm right beside you)
(Babe is cute, Babe is a cutie pie)

I'm hoping that, uh, my petting is making up for the-
(Bones bones bones bones)
If you find any nuggets in my-

I just kinda riffed a little bit, but it sounds-
(Look outside)
I keep getting stage fright (It's okay)
It's like a harmony, maybe? I don't know
I'm sorry (I thought you were gonna start rapping)
I feel like you're wasting your time (No!)
I- I know, I got cold feet on that-
(There's an alien in my head)
(There's a star)
It's in my- bed! Oh no!
(What's it doing there?)

(Did you have any ideas?)
I did that- I did that little "bom bom" thing.
(No, I mean, like, for bars)
Well, I'll just keep listening

Oh my G-d, there's eggs
Oh no (laughs)

That's the fetish take (Yeah)
This is gonna be the clean take
Even though I just said the word fetish

I enjoy Shrek 3
That's my dumb one for that (Okay)

[Synth solo]

Well, this wasn't what I expected
But that's fine
Thank you for your many contributions

Did you know?
The person who wrote this song is really cute
Just wanted to give my- my two cents there (Aw)
She's adorable (Ah!)
