Sunshine
Dweeb
I set up my antique Roland TR-707 Beatbox, a vocal mic, an amp, and tried to play this “live”. It came out pretty bad, and I thought I’d have to toss it. But after a couple day’s retrospection, I decided to save the rhythm guitar and drum tracks, added new vox, some bass, and that completely gratuitous lead guitar part, and I think I save it…
It’s been a long hard winter
and I don’t know what to do
Sitting round playing video games
And eating cans of stew
Got my flannel pjs
got my flannel sheets
bundled up between em
to trap my body heat
But I feel like things are startin to come around
I seen this yellow ball big and bright and round
I feel sunshine
all around the world
I hope someday
Spring will be unfurled
Bringing smiles to all of the boys and girls
Soon hop on my skateboard
fall flat on my face
Get up with a great big smile
and get back in the race
walk around with my shorts on
without freezing my butt
take a dip in the neighbor’s pool
and eat some cashew nuts
Sitting out on my deck till nine or ten
Get up in the morning and do it again
I feel sunshine
all around the world
I hope someday
Spring will be unfurled
Bringing smiles to all of the boys and girls
