Rebecca Pittenger's Podcast of Weird Songs

This is the next song in the effed up relationship album, Part 3. It's about how after the girl and guy get back together, they get into the show, The West Wing. They really dig it. They watch it together and it becomes their thing. It's their thing. The West Wing is their thing.

This is the next song in the Fucked Up Relationship Album, Part 3. It felt like things were going so good with that boyfriend, that used-to-be-ex-but-now-present-boyfriend that the girl got back together with. But then he made a mean joke. And he said, "can't you take a joke?" That's one of the number one tools of a gaslighter. Say something mean and then make it so the other person is "too sensitive" cuz it's a "joke."

See, a few weeks ago, I had a vision of a band of cowboy angels that sing the songs of my soul. Here is a song by them. It's another song about our dying planet. Or...or...or...or maybe the planet will make a recovery, after all. Maybe the land will recover after humans are gone.  

This is the next song in the Fucked Up Relationship Album; the girl and guy got back together, and he's giving her a guilt trip for having broken up with him, sayin' the breakup made it feel like he'd lost a limb. Like bein' amputated!!!!!! The girl says, hey, why don't I amputate your amputation? As in, why don't I put the limb back on? 

This song came to me in a dream this morning. I tried to make the instrumental part sound like the dream. It was pulsing and throbbing, like a heartbeat. It's a song about how we should listen to the heartbeat of the earth, and how we're fucking up the earth, too.

I added a little extra keyboard to the song from last night cuz I felt like I needed a little bit more complexity to it in the chorus in order to interesting-up the song. I also realized I need to post the lyrics cuz the rap is a wee little hard to follow without the lyrics in front of one.The lyrics of the song are:I'm running dry, dry as bonesBones that are drier than deathBones that sit inside my pocket Of death, death, deathDeath death death death death death deathDeath death death death death death deathSomeday we'll meet againWhen we are buried in the groundAnd our bones will commingleIn the soil, in the soilDeath death death death death death deathDeath death death death death death deathI know that most of us fear this thingOh, no! What if we hear Hell's Bells ring?I guess it makes sense cuz we don't knowIf we'll se Hellfire or Heaven's glowBut death is what we all doIt's natural, and when youThink about what it might beThe end of suffering will be freeWhen my time comes, I don't knowIf I'll be ready or notI hope I'll go out singingIn the sun, in the sunDeath death death death death death deathThis might be the end of suffering, this might be the end of sufferingDeath death death death death death deathThis might be the end of suffering, this might be the end of sufferingDeath is what we all doIt's natural, and when youThink about it, it might be...The end of suffering. We'll be free.

This is a song about death. It's just a regular song about death.

Whoah, I had a major faux pas on my previous mix of this song - if you got far enough into the song, you'll know what I'm talkin' 'bout. anyway, I fixed it. 

This is the next song in the Fucked Up Relationship Album, Part 3; even though the girl is disconcerted by the dream about yelling at her boyfriend, she also kinda enjoyed it.

This is the first song (maybe) of the Fucked Up Relationship Album, Part 3. After the newly reunited couple's first night of love, the girl has a dream about a giant fight between her and the boyfriend-dude.
