about

Looking at a Thing in a Bag
drums - from a drum loop CD, sorry...
guitar, bass, voices - todd

I originally wrote this song for a Terrain Board website that I hooked up with because of a mass email to local colleges offering my services as a composer. I re-recorded all of the parts but used the original drum loop track because A) I couldn't get Brad back (although we tried but I wasn't prepared the day he was here) and 3. I wasn't good enough to play the drums meself. The song is based on a Homestar Runner cartoon. If you don't know Homestar you should. He's an excellent athlete.

lyrics

Hanging out with my friends
I don't know what we're gonna do
Kickin' back trying to pretend
That we don't care what you've got with you

You're looking at a thing in a bag
And you won't tell me what it is
We're all standing by the stick
You're taunting me with a thing in a bag

So I go to get some drinks
Enough for all of us cool guys
I get two red one blue and then one orange
When I get back it's no surprise...

Looking at a thing in a bag
It's freakin' awesome this thing in a bag
Oh yeah, we're looking at a thing in a bag
I mean, I think I'm a cool guy...
