1.	A Little of This 01:18	lyrics	buy track
Cake-y acrylic and a simple pebble Look at an everything bagel I don’t have to settle Truth be told I came around on the tofutti Doesn’t hurt me or my best vegan buddy But Bubba’s is closed till the eighteenth How will I lodge poppyseeds between my teeth Order a number five plus Monterey Jack To become the bread bandit with a day old stack And dodge the new puddle born driveway crack To proactively restore your hybrid bumper Automotive boogie board akin to hydro thunder Or whatever plastic molded seat shook you I’m held in place by a two part epoxy glue And a need to justify how I spend my downtime And if they ask, which they might I do a little of this and a little of that And if they ask, Which they might I do a little of this and a little of that
2.	For or Better or For or Worse 01:14	lyrics	buy track
Paper cups with extra old drip java Running RuneScape on distilled kava Next to Obama in a Internet cafe Somewhere in middle America Googling the bottom of the mystery Those who don’t know history Are doomed to learn it For or better or for or worse My Gengar doesn’t remember curse For or better or for or worse Grubby fish like the cheep cheep Don’t lack the will to eat Uncured Mario meat salami Diet dictated by the swami At the singularity slinging skis, how precious My fingers look like bratwurst On these pocket synthesizers Crawl space appears as a natural geyser Finally free form the permamente de Kaiser For or better or for or worse
3.	Don't Blame the Cat 01:12	lyrics	buy track
Don’t blame the cat It’s not her fault Can’t be mad at the cat It’s really not her fault Took Bulma to the vet She has tarter build up Possible cavity Time for some cat dental care It was recommended that we brush her teeth I don’t see that working out honestly Mechanically speaking I don’t think she would allow it At least not without restraint and a couple straps Soothing music and electronically warmed laps Still would probably snap destroy hands Become the most ferocious cat in the land Don’t blame the cat It’s not her fault Can’t be mad at the cat It’s really not her fault Is this why you won’t let me sleep? On repeat Counting the sheep awoken by meows so loud Or was it something else? Don’t blame the cat Can’t be mad at the cat It’s not her fault poor kitty
4.	CA State Bird 01:18	lyrics	buy track
Can you dig up a diglet? The world’s plumpest quail no need to step on a scale Thunderous tippy taps in my driveway ring like hail A garbage pail kid with that latchkey bucket The eternal outlook going up strains, doesn’t it In steps the quail with enormous girth The Christians don’t have a monopoly on rebirth Shopping for toast when the donuts appeared I frosted my face with sprinkles to look like a beard It didn’t work like windows looking for solutions Building bad feelings while reading about pollution In a dry climate astroturf is fine for soccer I’m sympathetic to the methods of the traffic blockers Take a deep breath and let what is then be Reinvest my time into food network TV In steps the quail with enormous girth Pointing out out how the most available are always first My sweet Bulma chitters, “That might be true, But which minor interval is your shade of blue” My sister commented what a charming fellow “I’m the California state bird!” The quail bellows What protections does that entail? Can you dig up a diglet? What does that mean for you? Can you dig up a diglet?
5.	Cosy Plus 01:28	lyrics	buy track
A blanket statement on this folded duvet The French-Hungarian quilt is here stay Like analog delay and the sonic equivalent to extra curricular play Or the difference between “E” and “A” in “grey” How do you get cozy? I use propane Catching my self getting so pro-fun it’s profane Learning to lower expectations for updates on mobile games My preference is travel by train If the infrastructure is there Someone should rename the products used to remove male body hair Or at least stop segmenting the market If you’re in the drop-off zone at Kaiser please don’t park it I’m speaking to you through a homemade electronics project A rather simple one at that A rather simple one at that I’m speaking to you through a homemade electronics project A rather simple one at that A rather simple one at that
6.	An Artist Wants to be Food 01:08	lyrics	buy track
Hold me close Like something heavy Wouldn’t want you to strain yourself While we’re going steady Hold me near Like your eyes are weak Keep me secret Like a snack you want to sneak I could be a mango tree Apple tree, peach tree Pomegranate seedling with pear An artist wants to be food I could be sliced toast Cream pie, veggie roast An artist wants to be food Chewed on and digested I could be a tube of chips Multi-colored gummy ships Chocolate dipped pretzel sticks An artist wants to be food Hold me tight Like a hot drink in bad cup Don’t spill now Before you taste what’s up I could be your cocoa sip Your cup of ramen boiled quick Blend me up for some cheesy dip An artist wants to be food
7.	Pancake Song Pt. III 01:18	lyrics	buy track
Cooking pancakes up on the stove Cooking pancakes up on the stove Matcha gluten-free eggy wonder batter It’s the only breakfast I think really matters Cooking pancakes up on the stove Cooking pancakes up on the stove Flapjack duty bid for by my wife Making chocolate chips my now normal life Cooking pancakes up on the stove Cooking pancakes up on the stove Still using my grandpa Jim’s cast iron Turn to a diner rather then see it mired Cooking pancakes up on the stove Cooking pancakes up on the stove Carb overload in the morning isn’t scary First name basis with the pancake fairy Cooking pancakes up on the stove Cooking pancakes up on the stove This hot cake pairs so well coffee I use a knife and fork but still get sloppy Cooking pancakes up on the stove Cooking pancakes up on the stove You could make them anywhere I don’t even mind Green eggs and ham but reversed this time You see when we flip, we flip the world around us The pancake is the constant
8.	Pie Eye, my 01:25	lyrics	buy track
Sleepy and at fault, could use finishing salt My make up foundation is powdered malt The space heater is actually less cool than it sounds That’s the idea bud Grand finale but only a third through My jaw is too sore to effectively chew But this tune won’t slobber all over itself I don’t have any vocaloids You simply start with a simple syrup base Then apply the graham crackers directly on your face Coconut cream brushed under each eye Adhere to the one true way to become a pie But if we’re on the sly visit the frozen aisle Just don’t ask for directions from Kyle Good style, but doesn’t know his left from right Horatio Caine enduring a similar plight To the seasonal crane and also Calliegh Ducane I want more physical GBA games The flash cart makes that a silly endeavor Grander finale cause we’re nearing the end Ghostly voice is telling me to go full send I’m already doing all I can

The menu is a list A list for selection The menu is a list Rearrange this section The menu is a list A list for selection The menu is a list The menu is a list You already know what to eat You already know what to eat You already know what you want to do So why are you look at the menu for food The menu is a list A list for selection The menu is a list Rearrange this section The menu is a list A list for selection The menu is a list The menu is a list
10.	Wickedly Small Hands 01:28	lyrics	buy track
I think I saw you in my sleep darling I think I saw you in my dreams A special gleam in your eye We were using art to generate A.I. You laughed in a hopeful way as it all went awry I had pocket lines on my hands and my face was shocked Like pikachu then I glanced over at the clock Eighty six past twenty five, how great! Now it’s time to be served the rubber pirate on a plate Surprise my waiter is Marc Murphy in the flesh With a platter but my attention is on his vest With the Shaman King embroidery detail how cool Claimed it was made at Alta Vista Elementary School That’s weird I thought it turned charter But then Trader Joe himself appears ready to barter I’m slinging songs for veggie snacks but you signal relax How preciously possessive you get over my tracks It’s chill, I can always make some more Is what I try to say but it comes out like a snore I think I saw you in my sleep, lover I know I charged you with grand theft of blanket covers Another adjustment to my sleep topped bonnet Yearning to switch to the chicken suit in the closet
11.	Backtrack Guilt Inflicter 01:19	lyrics	buy track
What the heck, getting pedantic with my pa-diddles Where is the original cat cave, an unsolvable riddle Off by a little, the key is to stay in kilter I separate the grinds with a stainless steel filter Backtrack guilt inflicter, it’s a specialized tool With it’s own subreddit and own specific rules Which I’m inclined to abide, follow learn abide Much like the safety warnings on rollercoaster rides During this song keep both arms at your side Our priority is your safety, and nobody losing fingers This concern lingers, which is where I got the project name It would be better less sibilant, but the tunes stay the same Hotter than a flame, now freshly extinguished I keep trying to make myself seem more distinguished Like an individual gentleman, certainly not a group Cursed to write couplets to an three bar loop And the stork said that’s the real scoop
12.	Man of Mud 01:27	lyrics	buy track
First came the rain then dirt Then they mixed it all together Made something like yourself Out of just dirt and rain: the weather That’s all it was That’s all it is That’s all it was That’s all it is The man sculpted from dry mud Sat on a park bench contemplating the sun Friend or foe, Dry more yet or no? By what measure does your statue stature go? No verbal response but showered in energy The sun gave no words back tentatively But gave more energy than he could use While the worms started to tunnel right through his shoes How nice to be able to sit and think he thought As a man made from mud this is all I got The hue of his blazer jacket started to fade From a dark wet brown to a soft khaki grey What is yet to come is not yet done Might as well be here and stare at the sun How nice to be able to sit and think he thought As a man made from mud this is all I got
13.	Rat Smasher Pt. II 01:28	lyrics	buy track
It’s the rat smasher smashing rats In the castle with the handmade hats Giving back pats to the Demi-humans The L.E.D. light has far too many lumens For a clear line of sight, to the rat fight The auto target this go round works alright Now that the lord of cinder is slain Move along to another From Software game Stalemate in the armor form of the plate Delicate bass makes me adjust the fat roll gait It’s the rat smasher, does that mean he smashes rats? Or is just another rat bastard?
14.	Whispering Ironic 01:14	lyrics	buy track
You thought you could keep me down with the vertigo I now posses the power of meclizine As with the old adage, a chemical advantage Better him than me with a cart full of cabbage I can’t take anymore heartache at this time Epistemological ceviche processed by lime That’s to say raw facts delivered with a hairy back All the while sneaking dairy based snacks I can’t quit you, you’re my slice of pizza pie Mozzarella brings an olive oil tear to my eye Fedex has spies, untrustworthy to say the least If stored on a truck is it still fresh yeast? Contract has a crease, time to invalidate Small talk no longer making my heart palpitate I’m Chancellor Palpatine in that one meme With the suspicious smile whispering ironic We can take critically panned and make it iconic Just like when the internet thankfully killed ugly Sonic That’s not to say you can channel you inner Vader Under no circumstance bully the content creators You thought you could keep me down with the vertigo
15.	Garden Variety Eel 01:23	lyrics	buy track
Wield my awkward like a ten pound sledge In social situations my back is to a ledge I hedge my bets, turn my head down, step back Shed myself of what breath I lack then react I'm a garden variety eel constricting an electric seal Brushed steel potato peel clutching anime film reels Foolhardy anvil praying the antagonist will stand still When I fall it's peers' recognition that gives a thrill Deft hands daft sensibilities with putrid abilities Bovine sedative temporarily grants me tranquility Sinful pinball machine that is unsportingly tilted Staccato or stilted? This whoopsi-dasie is wilted Cut my own rope as a penniless provocateur Divide my ego for that Yugi Moto allure Malicious multiplicity for the self-saboteur Half poor, quarter sore, lacking two eighth's more Never far from that convex in my chest To take distance would be for the best To take distance would be for the best
16.	Old Moose, New Riddles 01:14	lyrics	buy track
Looser than than the goose in the hall of the moose The king has aged the frog looks with a side eye The king is old time to step aside guy When the bishop moves like a rook is when you get the catchy hook The blue hen clucked look, the antlers have shed Jokingly took the pair and put them atop her head Much to the chagrin of newly appeared goose mother You know us moms have to look out for one another The king has withered and is now making skiffle Still has the same groove with the same jiggle Grand order wiggle, tying to shed my crown You shed the antlers you shed the crown Shed the antlers shed the crown No one is sad when the old king is no longer around Shed the antlers, shed the crown No one is sad when the old king finally hits the ground Shed the antlers shed the crown The red wolf sighed menacingly Shed the antlers shed the crown The frog looks with a side eye
17.	Lessons from Small Talk 01:19	lyrics	buy track
Click clack on the grey Mac With the rainbow apple Live my life by advice from The lid of the Snapple Trivia now factual With a bit of fantasy Paper boat out to sea By the redwood tree Plentifully I refill my cup Give a stranger a friendly nod, “what’s up?” Maybe I shouldn’t have done that Engaged in a small talk suspension They chuckled and then said the sky And that includes God by extension Now what am I supposed to do with that? Now what am I supposed to do with that? Now what am I supposed to do with that? I chuckled in turn I guess we all learn Not to talk to strangers eventually Turn your body away Resist the urge to say Words could be replied to potentially Lift up the large phone Make a personal zone And defend it most zealously Then chuckle in turn I guess we learn Not to talk to stranger eventually Now what am I supposed to do with that? Now what am I supposed to do with that? Now what am I supposed to do with that?
18.	Damp Like the Seagull 01:14	lyrics	buy track
I jumbled it all up on artistic merit These magic gloves are zero percent ferret I can bear it, eventually all cosmetic Cosmic comparisons for the most athletic Pathetic like my last espresso pull Continuous winter storm has my apathy full Like the dampness of a in flight seagull In a cloud, above a lake, next to the sea All wet and all mud my phone says a flood Love me or not on a closed rosebud This chub is in a box, slippery fish My Prius gets turbo boost from a near miss My face so no much I’ll gladly suck on a punch Rather than throw my own Pleased to sink into my extra abnormal sleep schedule zone Snore But I’ll catch up get it all back into balance As long as one allows for proper nap allowance Important to carve out time for the little things Like guessing what blessing the griddle might bring Maybe veggie nuggets, perhaps pancakes? Possibly a burger, I hope it’s pancakes.

20.	Holiday Baking Champ League 01:05	lyrics	buy track
Plenty of that and a boatload of this Punish myself for drifting into bliss Cause old bouldy ain’t rolling themself Incline like the high cut frequency shelf I’m an elf that’s a straight up lie Unbreakable gingerbread isomalt ply I have an LED drone trick to wow Who is the holiday baking champion now? Honest note not really up to me Parade float flight of the thanksgiving tree Zip cuff paradiddle has no restraint The truth is it isn’t what it ain’t Kapra demon run making me faint While the sequencer timeline is still blank Zip cuff paradiddle has no restraint The truth is it isn’t what it ain’t Dip into the past expired paint While the canvas is still somewhat blank I’m frantically twisting the drawbridge crank For my secret fortress under Tahoe lake Zip cuff paradiddle has no restraint The truth is it isn’t what it ain’t The gingerbread floor is also the plate Hoping my sugar veneer holds up great
21.	Weird World 02:33	lyrics	buy track
A sticker collection without a home A single ant exploring all alone A single stringer relatively in tune A timer for the plant lights to force them to bloom It’s like the Truman show, admittedly smaller in scale Never mind not Truman, it’s Jonah and the whale But the whale’s an Orca, and Seaworld is in a crunch To cover up the story of watching parables become lunch But if you pause, you might just get your bearings for a moment Don’t pause too long, because this world can get a little weird Not scary, just a little too absurd What you caught offhand but still all too clearly heard But promptly forgot, I get it I’m busy as well But my own faulty recall is why I’m so quick to tell It’s like the Truman show, except no one is watching A twenty eight tile court on a hill for hop scotching But I only have this eight sided die: inequitable The sticker collection becomes slightly more collectable But if you pause, you might just get your bearings for a moment Don’t pause too long, because this world can get a little weird But if you pause, you might just get your bearings for a moment Don’t pause too long, because this world can get a little weird
22.	Post-Postmodern Blues 01:20	lyrics	buy track
The rainwater won’t stop but one days my words will If a shark should bite stick your fingers in the gills Tap mechanical keys adjust parameter release Extra sugar on my pretty please for the manner police At least the mind comes pre-blended Check the appendix where my words are amended A certain existentialist defended by my embrace of the absurd Soft request, I lack the proper words Seal Pokemon is named seal and that’s the deal Beyond that having trouble defining what’s real A banana peal on rainbow road is a rough shake The majesty of nature makes my body quake Be wary on the comprehensive theory Post postmodern(ist) blues Be wary of the structure of the whole Post postmodern(ist) blues I rap more quickly when the basement is cold Losing touch with what’s cool because I’m getting old Exit polls inconclusive, and ultimately wrong Going mad making another sequel to another song But you mind find it You might muster some doubt Always a reason to disregard Maybe throw the whole song out Be wary on the comprehensive theory Post postmodern(ist) blues Be wary of the structure of the whole
23.	A Little of That 01:21	lyrics	buy track
I’m pigeonholing this ancient book of binding spells A recovering loot box gambler with the obvious tells Where the fox fell is where I make my bed and sow it Where the elephant seal sings I take my kayak and row it An aspiring poet splitting his build between too many skills Climbing too many hills Like Kate Bush, I just need a little Netlflix push And a Stranger Things Bump while I overcome the midday hump Categorical grump, take the midrange and squash it Shepard warning you to watch it while you dance in the mosh pit I just here for the moo-sh, or is it pronounced mush? I’ll reiterate these spells give a rather unique kind of rush It’s a superpower that everyone has, It’s unique skill that everyone can do  And if they ask, which they might I do a little of this and a little of that
