Notes
These were from the first three days in May 2007.
There are a few catchy moments, a few grating moments, and lots of sloppy moments.
I was still recording way too many songs per day, exercising very little quality control.

Lyrics to "Mday":
today is the 1st of may mommy's birthday we'll call this one mday i like the bumblebees i like to see their wings i like the grass and the hives i like all sorts of things i am an idiot i like the bumblebees i like the kitty cats i like the worms to emerge from the ground in the rain i am an idiot i like the choo choo trains they are so sexy i like the choo choo trains but a little bit scary i'm an idiot i like the bumblebees i like the worms who squirm i like hot summer days i like the snow i like the snow i like the snow i am an idiot i like hot summer days i am an idiot i like to sit on the couch and drink my budweiser i am an idiot i am an idiot i like to go to boulevard park only when it is sunny i am an idiot i like to ride my unicycle i think it makes me look so cool i am an idiot i like to go to the park and throw my frisbee between my legs like an idiot like an idiot like an idiot i like to sing really loud while i play the guitar surrounded by houses full of weirdos strange people i like to pretend i have an audience and an accent all right let's say it i am an idiot i am an idiot i like to sing inappropriate songs on my mother's birthday i cannot shake the accent or the feeling that the audience is beginning to turn away i like to sing at lunch time almost every single day i don't bother to practice i just turn the tape recorder on and jam away and jam away 'cause i'm an 'cause i'm an 'cause i'm an 'cause i'm an idiot 'cause i'm an idiot 'cause i'm an idiot 'cause i'm an idiot

I guess the reverb made it sound like an epic guitar jam, so I started making up a story about lots of guitarists.
The improvised narration is actually kinda funny. Also, the main chorus is catchy, at least by Trex standards. So overall it's not too bad.
Wow, did I just say "Trex standards"?
Lyrics to "Kumbayuck":
in the back of the stage the guitarist is warming up it was a cacaphony 10,000 amateurish guitarists all converged on the stadium somebody's idea of a guiness world record was to collect all these aemateurish guitarists and perform the world's longest and loudest rendition of kumbaya on guitar the thing is nobody knew the chords they all the knew the words pretty soon the organizers decided instead of kumbaya they would have to play something a little bit more memorable in terms of the chords so they decided to play this song also written by the same dude who wrote kumbaya it's called kumbayuck it sounds a little something like this kumbayuck don't need no religion here kumbayblaablaa i don't need no religion dear when i die i'll turn into a puddle a puddle of bloody goo when i die i'll turn into a vapor like a pile of doggie poo kumbayuck don't believe in no reincarnation kumbayuck don't bother giving ??? a carnation i don't know what will happen when i die will i just decompose or go into a place in the sky kumbayuck this song sucks kumbayuck this song sucks so the guitarists they were supposed to learn those words but a lot of them didn't like the idea of doggie doodoo in the guiness book of world records next to their names so one of the guitarists, mind you one of about 11,000 that showed up shouted really loud to everybody "freebird" being sheeplike in their mentality and half-stoned the remaining 10,999 guitarists all yelled back "freebird" so that is what they ended up playing that day 11,000 guitarists for the guiness book of world records ended up playing "freebird" for 35 hours i know, you're wanting me to break into "freebird" i'm sorry; i wasn't one of those guitarists while they were all bleating away at their ridiculous cliche vocals strumming cacaphononically to the canafanafalacalacphony i was miles away on a sailboat heading down to the carribean island of santa travis and when i got there i was greeted by some natives who had their ukeleles out and they began to shout play us a song boy or we will eat you play us a song your white dude 'cause we are the cannibals so i had to think fast and i pulled out a verse but i thought it might be a little perverse but that's okay i proceeded to play didn't want to end up in a hearse so i played kumbayuck this song sucks kumbayuck kumbayuck kumbayuck this song sucks the natives like the ewoks in that 3rd star wars movie thought i was some sort of god they were so impressed with my guitar playing that they put me on a chair made of bamboo and coconut shells and carried me to their village, sat me next to the fire and asked me to play this glorious tune for the other people in their little tribe they gave me some coconut milk that had fermented it was just a matter of minutes before i felt demented unfortunately my playing had cemented i could play kumbayuck with my eyes closed so i began to play kumbayuck this song sucks kumbayuck don't wanna end up in the belly of some native schmucks kumbayuck i know this song sucks kumbayuck well, i'm in luck because at that point i saw an airplane in the sky he had pontoons on the bottom i pulled out my cell phone and i dialed the phone number for the airplane don't ask me how it's just a story let's just stay i happened to remember the phone number of the airplane falling through the sky falling did i say falling yes he was falling and that is the end of the airplane he fell into the water and the natives chased after him in their canoes meanwhile i decided to slip out of their village back towards my jet my private jet nevermind the fact that i arrived in my boat i wanted to go in my jet this was after all the island of saint travis and i can do what i want on my island and i can do what i want in my song 10,000 or 11,000 in the stadium they're the ones who have to play along so i say kumbayuck this song sucks kumbayuck ok i think i'm gonna end it soon kumbayuck my hand is getting tired kumbayuck i gotta go back to programming i don't know how to stop this song but i don't know how to stop this song but i don't know how to stop this song i hope i don't keep on hoping very long

This cranks up the slacker jabbing to a new level. It might sound intense, but is actually mild compared to my feelings at the time.

Lyrics to "Sugar Loser":

This is quieter, but just as musically aimless. I should have quit a few pauses ago.
The improvised lyrics propose limiting myself in the number of songs I record each day. This was the beginning of the end of the epic recording days.
Lyrics to "Post Pause 3":
i should stop after the first song of the day that's when i had the inspiration i should make a rule that i should no longer play if i mess up one too many times i gotta exercise some quality control gotta exercise on my bicycle gotta exercise my mind gotta exercise my management of time i should stop when i'm about to stop i should stop when i feel i've reached my creative top i should just limit myself to 1 song a day i should stop plowing through these tapes i should just limit myself to 1 song a day 'cause nothing ever happens after 10 minutes or so after 10 minutes it's time for me to go and here i am on the 40th minute or so and nothing is happening i should stop after a song i should resist the urge to playing along to the imaginary epic jam in my head it can wait for me until tomorrow bye bye
