Story of The 8​-​bit Compy

from 8​-​Legged Dance Moves (2005 demo) by Bubblegum Octopus

about

This song, like the last, is also just about what the lyrics say. However, in this case, I like it. The idea of writing a song that is about the process of writing the song and why and how writing the song went and what I was thinking of as I wrote it is still really funny to me.
The "bass" break in this song makes me so much happier in this version than on the album version. I never should have changed it.

lyrics

I wanted on the 8-bit compilation
so I wrote a song that sounds like this
it’s pretty cool its gameboy stimulation
I never thought I’d make a song like this...
--------
this song is a story about itself
and the reasons that it came about today
hooray?
whats the fucking point in rhyming
--------
so heres the end of my song for the CD
take it and listen all you damn well please
I hope its worth all of my effort
It took me over an hour
