Chocolate Cake (/w Norm)

Uploaded .

I had some lyrics describing a late nite cake baking experience kicking around. If I have a lot on my mind, dirtying every dish in the house seems like the right thing to do.

I stole some cool percussion from Norm and went to work. I also resurrected Isaac Hayes in a couple of spots by accident too!

Norm also finished this off with some awesome dissonant sounding cowbell - Perfect!

Vocals: Me
Bass: Me
Percussion: Norm

I’m a looney…

Chocolate Cake

Hey man
I see you’re dyin’ inside
The whole world
Is comin’ after you

And I feel the pull of the tide
But I bet the moon feels it too

I just want some chocolate cake
And I don’t care if it’s the boxed kind
Mix it in a bowl with love and hate
But make it mine

(Man bakes cake)

I just want some chocolate cake
And I don’t care if it’s the boxed kind
Mix it in a bowl with love and hate
But make it mine

(Man smells cake and wants to eat it)

I just want some chocolate cake
And I don’t care if it’s the boxed kind
Mix it in a bowl with love and hate
But make it mine

"I just want some Chocolate Cake" Life summed up in a single moment of want.

Am i listening to Steve Miller meets War meets Zappa here? This is soooo cool! You should get Bowie to sing backup on this! I prefer angel cake though....;>)

cool. is this something i remember from monster magnet? what is the fx on the guitar (or is it bass) that adds this slow flanger-like movement?

Guest said

Oh yes, this is really cool and a great deal of fun.

Guest said

"Where's my cake?" :D I'm more of a crumpet man myself, but this is very cool and very funny. :) Love the foxy vox also!

@Reefwalker: Well well well, a muffin man, eh? A pretty bold statement from a guy that I have seen wolf down a great deal of cake. But, in any case, finally I can answer in the affirmative: Yes, I know the muffin man. Muffin man. Muffin man. (I won't finish the rest as I know you are kind of protective about publishing your address).

"And I feel the pull of the tide... I bet the moon feels it too"; "I didn't have any eggs or any other crap you are supposed to mix with it"; "Mix it in a bowl with love & hate"... where do you get this stuff?? I'm a sucker for it. I hate chocolate cake. I mean, I love it.
