BUG'S SONG
Matt's Challenge: BNE SZN (piano only!!)
Title: Season Your Beanie
Lyrics:
I’ll eat my hat if you make it
I’m not mad I’m just candid and someone just had to say it
there’s no path where you’re headed
and you can act all offended
I’m a realist and I feel its best you never pretended
that there’s a chance in a million
you can be handsome or brilliant
but you’ll crash like all the others so you can call me the villain
one day we’ll look back and laugh, I’ll get a pat on the back
but if you make it with your music I will eat my hat

Would like a salad on the side?
we can sub it out for fries?
We got a dad hat meal plan for 10.99
you can order a fedora that you’ll just adore
we got a chef hat special, call it hat du jour
Cuz I’ve got 30 milion reasons that can prove you wrong
and 200 fans in london singing every damn song
I’m rubbin salt in the wounds, just admit you’re defeated
you can season your beanie, but you still gotta eat it

you’d eat your hat if I made it
so I snapback with a menu when you throw all that shade if
you took a bite of brim and didn’t like how it tasted
you should’ve sampled the plastic long before you beret-ed

and hey, yeah, maybe you’re right a bit more often than not
but you could choose to say nothing, it has no sticker or cost
rubbin salt in the wounds to admit you’re defeated
you can season your beanie but you still gotta eat it
you can season your beanie but you still gotta eat it
you can season your beanie but you still gotta eat it

MATT'S SONG
Bug's Challenge: Cthulu (Radio-Friendly)
Title: Get Deep Fried
Lyrics:
let's stay in bed all day
we'll get away from here tomorrow if the monsters allow
what did people ever talk about
the television doesn't work right now
sit with me
beneath the nothing where the stars all used to be before they all went out

they're in the hallway at our door
they're in the walls they're in the floor
looks like it's all gonna end right as we begin

who called this son of a bitch
half mile tall, man looks like a fish
the deep one will swallow us all
he can swallow my balls
who spoke the summoning rite
who's up for fresh calimari tonight
the deep one? eat my ass
more like get deep fried am i right

hentai tentacles
gonna kick him right in the genitals
he's gonna be like "this is terrible"
i'm gonna be like "you look edible"
elder god from the ocean floor
I bet you wish you could sleep some more
i'm your paralysis demon
got hooked and you can't stop screamin

they're in the hallway at our door
they're in the walls they're in the floor
looks like their party's gonna end right as it begins
