This is a silly little song i made up and recorded on the spot back in 2016. This is a voice memo recorded straight to built in mic on iphone and gussied up a bit in Adobe Audition.

My daughter told me I should not release this song, since I have a lot of better ones, but I explained (perhaps unsuccessfully) that part of the beauty of this format (bandcamp etc.) is that things don't have to be perfect all the time to be enjoyed.

I tried to explain the Japanese concept of Wabi-Sabi (finding beauty in imperfection) and she was not buying it.

lyrics

I ain't gonna to like you
cause you got a long board
I ain't gonna like you
cause your haircut's short
I'm only going to like you
if you're a good sport

if you're a good sport
well that means you wont cry
when I break your heart
well well yer a good sport
if you're a good sport
you'll get on that board and you will ride

I seen ya hangin'
around my school
I thought you seemed
pretty cool
not with your big board
just seemed like a good sport

you smiled all the time
you chuckled too
you were pulling faces
in the Red Room
and now I know
you ain't a good sport

gotta be a good sport
which means ya don't cry
when I break your heart
you wont cry
just get on your board
and you will ride
you'll get on your board
and you will ride
