about

NEW MUSIC 🏆 the 53rd song from my New Single Every Week For A Year Project is ‘Pretty Godzilla’. This week’s video is a continuation of The Emanuel Show’s Mr. Fingerlegs interviewing The Greatest Songwriter in the world. He seems to think the other self proclaimed Greatest Band in The World deserves second place and has challenged the mighty @theactualkylegass to a stage duel. What will happen next!??!!

The song itself is another from my exercise writing a song in one day. This time with my good pal and incredibly talented @jfettig at his lovely new studio in LA. We actually recorded everything in one day as well except for the bridge which I resang in Brooklyn because we partied a little too hard the night before.
Jeff then mixed and mastered it.
Btw there’s gonna be a full album of all the songs written in a day coming out soon. I’m psyched about it, they’re all super cool and interesting :)
The song-a-week year is almost up (technically it is already but I'm going a bit beyond a year)! Can’t wait for next week’s release.
And thanks @tenaciousd for being the actual best (or second best depending on the aforementioned stage duel…)!
We love you dearly ❤️

lyrics

Laid and sewn together
Make whatever
But you’d better get paid,
Yeah you’ve gotta get paid for it.
Love and dress however
Makes you better,
Makes you get up and get paid.
Yeah, you’ve gotta get paid for it.

Pretty little soldiers
Sold your souls so you’d
Control it from your rows.
Lined across the freeway
In your cabins
All together,
All alone.

Faces in the mirror
Facing mirrors,
Me forever, watch me change
While the others do the same
All until the traffic
Turns the faces
Facing forward once again,
Ruddy, ready to complain.

It looks as if the pieces
Line together like the letters
From a story that you’d read across a page.
And you saw your own reflection in the patterns that you made.
And you might think you’re different
Or like what you think and say
Paves some kind of system for what happens in your day.
But you’re no different,
Don’t forget
It has to be this way…

Because you’ve gotta get paid.
You’ve gotta get paid.
