Deporitaz - I Know Your Name

a) The is a reupload, this time with the actual album artwork
b) I'm not, nor will I ever be Neil Cicierega
It was a Friday.
I saw a movie, but it wasn't very long,
so I snuck into another one.
Employees caught me. They threw me out into the mall.
All in all, it was pretty fun.
But then it happened: I bumped into a random guy.
He said "Excuse me," and he tried to walk away. (Walk away.)
But I had just had a psychic vision.
I said, "Sir, I don't know why, but I know your name."
I said,
"I know, I know, I know your name.
I know, I know, I know your name.
I know, I know, I know your name.
I know, I know your name is...
Your name is Bob. (Bob, Bob, Bob.) Your name is Bob.
Your name is Bob, I know."
The guy said, "Sorry, my name is Fred,"
And then he slowly walked away. I never saw that guy again.
Went back to my house.
Went to my room to feed my fish which was floating on its back,
So I gave it to the cat.
When he was finished, I took the bones away,
But right before I reached the garbage something happened in my brain.
Well I had just had a psychic vision.
I said, "Cat, I don't know why, but I know your name."
I said,
"I know, I know, I know your name.
I know, I know, I know your name.
I know, I know, I know your name.
I know, I know your name is...
Your name is Bob. (Bob, Bob, Bob.) Your name is Bob.
Your name is Bob, I know."
The cat said nothing,
And then threw up onto my freshly shampooed carpet.
I rolled my eyes and walked outside.
It started raining.
I ran for shelter in an alleyway that smelled as if an elephant had died.
There was a box there.
I looked inside to see a homeless man,
Dressed in rags, bearded and insane.
And suddenly I had a psychic vision.
I said, "Sir, I don't know why, but I know your name."
I said,
"I know, I know, I know your name.
I know, I know, I know your name.
I know, I know, I know your name.
I know, I know your name is...
Your name is Bob. (Bob, Bob, Bob.) Your name is Bob.
Your name is Bob, I know."
(stnaPerauqS boBegnopS

The homeless man stared. He looked a bit scared.
He asked me how I knew his name. I couldn't say.
And it was awkward. He fell asleep,
And I walked back home in the rain. (In the rain.)
But then it happened: another vision came to me.
Another psychic idea from my dreams.
I knew I had to burn down the supermarket to achieve world peace.
So I did.

It's so weird to realize that he was my age by the time he started making his ridiculously awesome music.

im a preteen but i make like. “ok at best” music

even though i can play like 6 instruments and sing, i have no actual creative integrity to actually create music, so i just do really shitty covers of lemon demon songs. it works tho! it’s fun to do it and figure the stuff out ::}

[@thescooshinator]

@@fam0uslastw0rds37 If you can ok music as a preteen, I feel like you have the ability to be a good musician. Remember, he was 16 when he made this, quite a bit older than you. So if you can make okay music now, you can definitley make great music when you're an adult.
