Everyday Life Gives You Song Titles

One of my favorite things in the last year is Metalacolypse, a cartoon show about a deathmetal band named Dethklok. The singer of the band is forever culling song titles from life for instance: The band is being intervied on a tv soundstage and the interviewer suddenly gets a neck wound that bleeds profusely creating a puddle of blood around exposed power cables on the studio floor which he steps in: "Bloodrocuted"

The band's helicopter restaurant chef gets diced up by helicopter blades but the chef parts are gathered up and kept alive individually but it's costing them $10,000 a day to do it and they have no one to make sandwiches for them. So they decide to fix him: "Sewn Back Together Wrong"

Everyday life for me is a little different than Dethklok's to be sure but I'm always getting song titles from life like the time I ate so much cerrano pepper in a Thai restaurant that urination was painful for three days: "Stingy Pee Rice"

Is life writing songs for you?

I do cocaine!


That

should have been in quotations marks.


is that

actually one of Rockso's songs?


i haven't had a very interesting day but heres what i could come up with

A Postbox too far
April Hail
My Horse is faster than your horse

not quite as exciting as Dethlok's but then i don't have a restaurant in my helicopter


well played

you should mail that letter though.


"Lying On The Floor Listening To Lo-Fi"

"Defrosting Chicken (in the Microwave)"
"Headphone Aggravation"
"Juggling Balls, Giros and Council Tax Bills"
"The Things I Lost Underneath My Bed"

Yeah, I haven't really left my room today...


The Headphone Thing

I have a set of Studio Cans that always pull hair out when I take them off.

"Headphone Hair Nazi"


No, I want to change that^^^^^

"Stereo Depilatator"!!!
excuse me while I write that


The problem with my headphones

wasn't with them, but with the fact that they were plugged into my computer and I didn't realise and spent half an hour wondering why no sound was coming out of my speakers. Oops.

My day has since got even more eventful, and I'm adding the folling to my list;

The timeless ballad, "Why Oh Why (Does my sweet potato taste like lychee)?"
"The Dragonville Washing-Up Blues"
"Alan Partridge Kiss My Face (Naive Melody)"
"Alfred Lord Tennyson meets TV-Links Uptown Dub"
and the CFTPA-inspired "I wrote Happy Birthday on your facebook wall but I was 7th and so had to think of something clever to say but couldn't please forgive me redux"


*following

* "Typo Tango"


Blue Feet and Visible Breath

Hunting for knitwear
April My Arse
The lone quiet death of a useless pilot light

I need to learn how my boiler works!


"Dropping 2 Quid Off A Bridge"

"Radio Off"
"Harassed By Girls"
"Fuck The Rail Replacement Bus Service"


you got an ep there

Open with "Harassed By Girls"


Why would you ever

drop 2 quid off a bridge?? You could've given it to me! I'm sad now, although I do like the song title.


I didn't do it on purpose!

I was walking across a bridge over a busy motorway, and I went to put my train ticket back in my wallet and £2 fell out and rolled off the edge into the road below. :( Suffice to say, I wasn't best pleased.


Today in song titles.

Sri Lankan Top Order Batting Blues

Driving My Parents to the Airport (and then Driving off in their Car mix)

Please, Please, Please Stop taking off Daddy's glasses and slobbering on them sweetheart.


^^^^^^^^^^ the 3rd one

is a Smiths song isn't it?


hmm...

"fuck rock stars, kill your family" is about as good as i can come up with today.


Someone

killed their family in my town last week. Mom, Daughter killed by Son, Fuuuuucccccckkkkkkkkk.


/

from last weekend:
"the bought 2gs of mdma but then it turned out to be sand. SAND! blues"


Is MDMA

similar to MDA? Someone put some of this in a glass of coke (the soft drink) for me back in the seventies and I got paranoid at a party being thrown in my honor. Oooo very yucky!


erm

im not sure, but i think if you had some mdma at a party in your honour then youd be the happiest man alive


Yeah, you'd think so

I've always been sensitive to shit, the only drug that hasn't let me down yet is nicotine.


sn

touched some chili then rubbed my bell-end blues


.

"left the house with wet hair and now my ears are cold"
"really wanted a wank when i woke up (but its too sore from last night)"


ouch
