Allergies

October 13, 2008 5:00 PM

So, I was planning on recording my ukulele rendition of Holy Diver (yes, that one), but my allergies were acting up so I felt like crap. So, that's what this song is about. And it's NSFW.

I didn't really have any kind of plan while making this, but just kinda recorded myself playing drums for six or seven minutes, cut out about a minute that I could use, came up with a really simple chord progression (all barred chords, for added simplicity), and recorded ... stuff. Also: I need to find some bass skills.

Lyrics:
all the pollen in the air
all the dander in my rug
sniffling and I don't care
feeling nasally unplugged

allergies
allergies
allergies
allergies
fuck.

Um.

Holy Diver?

On the uke?

I hate you for thinking of it before I did. THAT IDEA IS FULL OF UKULAWSOME.

When you're done with it, I will hate you even more.
