What is your song idea?
There once was a girl from Virginia, she had a three legged black cat named Gavin. One day the pair were walking down the road when out of no where an alien ship lands. You guys should go from there and tell a fantastic tale of adventure. I am sick and stuck in the house and my cat can't be an outside cat anymore after he lost his leg. We could both use adventure!

lyrics

there once was a girl from virginia
who was boss as the bhagavad gita
she and gavin her black amputee cat
were walking along down the street ya!

when along comes a spaceship from pluto
and it landed right out of the blue so
the girl and her cat had no chance in fact
they were dead meat you know like prosciutto

the girl was caught in a room with no corners
and the creatures were coming right towards her
but somehow the aliens spoke feline mammalian
and Gavin was translating for her

meow
meow
purrr
meow

the aliens smiled and nodded
when Gavin told them what they wanted
but the girl she got worried when they strapped her to the Gurney
but the surgery had already started

she woke up and looked at her feet
then counted them: one two three
i guess gavin had said to giver her a leg
because she had one fewer than he

No. 1 - (Limited Edition Single)
by A Severe Joy

Ok, you have to buy their Limited Edition Single - Mono Plexi-discs. It's a series, so if it's sold out then check back. The music is amazing, and the packaging is top notch. I highly recommend it. The Wiggly Tendrils

Capitol Limited EP

Becky and Gabe back up their dear friends Conor and Deirdre Loughridge on three of their wonderful love songs; they return the favor on three of our weepy songs. We used a toy drum set! The Wiggly Tendrils
