New Song Lyrics, Etc.

So, I have finally made plans to record a real EP. It will be about three or four songs long and will hopefully be of studio quality (much unlike my other recordings which all have that bedroom-studio feel). The set of lyrics I posted about a week ago will be a part of the record as well as the lyrics you're about to read. Here they are:

Im a Monster (or Me, You, I)
Dont shut your eyes and act like you can't understand

Wipe that shit from your grin, this aint over yet

What made you think that I had gone for good?
Now shes gone and I came back, just like you knew i would

Give me beer, give me food, give me a nice fat cigar

Give me a cheerleader named Sue and the back of my car

Reading, Writing, 'Rithmetic, its all so lame

And what makes us so damn different if we're all the same?

Cause Im a free-wheeling mother out looking for fun

And you know Ill keep it rocking til the morning come

Just open up your eyes and it's easy to see

That the monster inside of you, it's me.

Im gonna drink, Im gonna fart, Im gonna pick my nose
Im gonna check out fine ladies from their head to their toes
What else could you want or expect me to do?
When that monster inside of me, it's you.

Im a Monster!


This song is about someone dealing with the aftermath of a breakup. Its spoken as if in each person there are two entities, one a nihilistic self indulgent "monster" and the other a good-natured and healthy person who in this case is depressed because of the recent breakup. This is written from the negative side, which I suppose is pretty apparent.

Ive been writing alot of songs lately, Im really excited to arrange and record them. Anyone who may read this should keep their ears and eyes peeled for updates on my music myspace and here regarding the creation of the EP. Peace.
