BUG'S SONG
Matt's challenge: Songception
Title: Song
Lyrics:
I just woke up here
I am 7 seconds old
I go in your ears
I am exactly what you told me to be and I
I will never change or mould
At least not for long
You are my dad
I am your song
It’s been 30 seconds now and
Boy feels good to stretch these legs
Pick up the pace and run and jump
And see how far this road’ll take me
Oh hey, what’s that? I found this chord, oh please dad, can we keep it?
You say: song that there’s a minor chord, its only good for somber feelings
So I put it back down where it was
You teach me right from wrong
You are my dad
And I am your song
But look at me, a minute in
And now I’ve found some friends
They back me up, they make me fuller,
Act as perfect complements
And now people keep on stopping me
To tell me what I am
What this sound is all about
And what it means to all of them
I am anguish, I am heartache
I am unbearable to hear
I am closure, I am power,
I am brutally sincere
But dad you never told me I could make these people cry
I thought you brought me here so I could be something they like
You say you didn’t mean it, never wanted this for me, I may not
Be the song you meant to write, but I’m the one they need
The one they need
Sometimes you get it right, even if they take it wrong
You are my dad
But I’m their song

MATT'S SONG
Bug's Challenge: The song must have the initials B.U.G.
Title: Buried Under Gary
Lyrics:
why do you come here they say
every summer
don't you have anywhere better to be
you arrive with the butterfly weed
blow into town like a cottonwood seed
something's buried under Gary Indiana
something's buried under Gary Indiana
there's blood on the lake shore
keening from the wild
haven't you felt it moving
deep in the soil
so i have coming for years
every summer
cause that's when the symptoms appear
ask your friends bout their prophetic dreams
ask your kids bout the shadows they've seen
seems like everyone but you's got a feeling
something's buried under Gary Indiana
something's buried under Gary Indiana
it'll swallow the steel mills
the lake's gonna boil
haven't you felt it crawling
deep in the soil
something's buried under Gary Indiana
something's buried under Gary Indiana

Wow thanks fan
@@JamMechanics good artwork too
Thanks it was AI
Ugh I couldn’t sit with that joke for 10 minutes. Just kidding everyone. @deepblueink you rocked this art.
@@JamMechanics I KNEW YOU'D BREAK
Really sad I missed the show with the two of you, you guys are great artists and always so impressive and creative. This podcast is Drawfee for the ears
I've been saving this for a few days, just listened to it on a drive home from a friend's house. My jaw DROPPED multiple times throughout this episode. All I can say is. WOW
Thank you! Appreciate you keeping up with us :) we’ll have a new one soon!
Bug that song was so good omg wtf
Like I could see it being on an album given even just a little more time. Matt was right 100%, I teared up a bit.
Came to this podcast hoping for songwriting tips but I’ve never been so delighted to be wrong lol. The opening song gets stuck in my head on a daily basis, furious with you both
We can definitely try to give more tips/process thoughts during the debriefs in the 2nd half. But since most of the podcast is what it is, it would be an inefficient way to learn 😃 but that’s good feedback
Y'all are such a blast to listen to! I never fail to be impressed with how much you two come up with in such a short time.
Also the hearing the wedding song story and finding out it was "Good Love" gave me such a visceral reaction, I was not ready for that.
I've been waiting so long for this! so exited!!
Can’t wait for the part twos 😁
The show was almost perfect but now that they got rid of the stupid little campfire animation i can confirm it's 100% flawless
