here's a little song my friend and i worked on... you can hear it at http://www.mattschneiderman.com ... it's a fun song... without too much of an overall message. it's him singing and playing (he's matt schneiderman)

check it out and see what you think about it.


Funnel Cake


Now let me tell y'all a little story
About four boys and the rise of glory
Jimmy on drums layed the phattest beats
and Johnny on bass made you move your feet.
Elkin on guitar lent a singin choir
and Joey was the one with the deep fat fryer.

Ahhh yeah.
Funnel Cake!

They put out a record in less than a year.
But nobody cared they just wanted to hear
Funnel Cake rockin it out on stage
buyin delicious confections on their set breaks
The girls would dance and the place was packed
And the sticky little figners were the opening act.

And when those boys started rockin the mic
they'd just be coming at you like:

"We're gonna rock your ass off
You won't have no ass because we rocked it off"

Now things were going good, no they were going great
when Joey made himself a big ass mistake
the oil was too hot and the safety was off
Grease was flying at too high a cost.
Hit Jimmy in the face and Johnny in the eye
Joey dropped to his knees and started to cry
But Elkin was the man who got it the worst
He burst into flames in the middle of a verse

But he kept on rockin the mic
even on fire he kept rockin it right

singing: "We're gonna rock your ass off
You won't have no ass because we rocked it off"

Now they're living on social security checks
Month to month on medicare benifits
Ya got four sons tryin to make their mark
All they do is practice in the marketing art

They got a good show... hit you like a log
when you hear the stylings of a cord dog
and when those boys start rockin the mic
just like their daddy's they're rockin it right

singing: "We're gonna rock your ass off
You won't have no ass because we rocked it off"
"Nobody is ever promised tomorrow. Increase the peace."
