Liner Notes

@bradbrubaker sent me an amazing postcard for the #PostcardChallenge with a very dramatic figure saying "Bro... Did you for real just break my Garfield collector's mug from McDonald's?"
I ended up having fun messing around with my ten year old and trying to make very #dramatic music that mostly was just #silly lol

Lyrics

Bro, did you for realz
Bro, you caused these tears

Did you just break
For goodness sake

My Garfield mug
My favorite mug
My collector's mug
The mug I got at McDonald's with Garfield in a canoe and it may have had lead paint but I liked it so now what do I do?

All gone now
Sad songs now

What do I do?

Tragedy
I am so sad you see
Tragedy
I am so sad you see

Did you just break
For goodness sake

My Garfield mug
What do I do?

All gone now
Sad songs now

The simplicity and comedy of this reminds me of Kimya Dawson. I like the rhythm too.

Fun! I know it's a silly song, but the sadness of the lines "All gone now / Sad songs now" are palpable.

Thanks for being my postcard buddy!

I love how this departs from your normal style. It's a lot of fun, especially the super long line about canoe and lead paint. It made me smile.
