At what point does one deviate
their path from a parent?
It's an interesting question
considering my father is also a singer/songwriter. I
haven't exactly pinpointed that moment for us, but
something tells me that at 35 years old? This song
wouldn't have entered my father's brain.
Nope, just not seein' that come
out of my father when I was 10 years old. Really
disturbing to think of how much this song would've
scarred me had I heard my father record
this.
<boggles the
mind>
So how on earth did I come up
with this?
Man, can I say it just came
to me without concerns about my mental state?
I was riding around earlier this year with *****
on Vanowen heading east in the Valley. I just
sang the first line. I mean, I just did.
Maybe she was arguing with me and that was my cute way
of being horribly rude in asking her to be quiet? LMAO
- I have no idea, but I just started singing
it.
And singing it.
And singing it.
I couldn't get the melody out of
my head, and thought about how funny it would be to
record it... except I just couldn't. It was
sooooo dirty and actually was even worse in the car.
So I sat on it for months (while still singing
it) and then it hit me. What makes it so dirty is that
it's CATCHY and you may sing that opening line in an
inappropriate place. I imagined labeling it NSFW
(not safe for work) but Paddy listening anyway ('cause
he has headphones at work) thinking he got away with
something... unaware that it had just been burned on
his brain and an hour or so later at the water cooler
he'd catch himself singing it to a female co-worker
completely unaware that anything graphic came out of
his mouth. That made me laugh much more than the song
itself...
...and with that "The NSFW Song"
was born. There will eventually be a second bit
portraying the work scenario I just described but
I wanted to get this video up and running for a
bit first. Your first instinct is that it could be a
viral hit but honestly? It really is NSFW and not
a whole lot of sites are going to showcase it... so it
would have to be COMPLETELY viral and underground.
These days you're not goin' too far without some type
of push first. You never know though. One person
tweets it... It may just takeoff by itself. Now is the
fun part: watchin' and sharin'.
What I won't be doing
however, is skydiving later this morning. Cloudy/Rainy
streak of the century in LA right now and we
simply aren't cleared for takeoff. Sucks for me, but
it gave me time to put this together. You win some,
you get my nuts in your mouth.
