The Apps

Liner Notes

Well this was fun. True story! Mostly. Silly dating Apps. It's rough out there y'all. In my mind its like Paul Simon meets Deochii and they play with robots and this happens (i wish). Sorry if the levels are whack. Sounds best in my headphones. The main vocal was a one taker. And then I couldn't resist the other stuff. This came to be on the drive home (I took the long way).

Lyrics

So there I was Talking to my friend I says ya know sometimes I think about talking to men

She says to me she says Like you want to go on a date or something? Yah I say A date or something

She says these days it's not like before You just can't talk to someone randomly anymore Here's what you do (I said please tell me girl) she said You get on the Apps.

You gotta get on the Apps Get on the Apps Get on the Apps Get on the Apps

Hmmmmmm OK I guess I should try I did it once before but it's been a little while So I took some pics Made an attempt to be witty And now I'm on the Apps

I'm on the Apps I got so thirsty That I got on the Apps I got on the Apps

Ohhhhh boy what a time it was Swiping left left with an occasional right I think I saw my neighbor and my friend's grandpa but ok Alright.

It was an instant ego boostah but then you realize it's probably just a computah These bots be stalkin' Trying to get you talkin'

Here on the Apps Here on the Apps Who's real Who's fake Here on the Apps Here on the Apps Who's here to (#*#$!) Who's here to find their soulmate Who's here cuz they bored with reallllll lovvvvveee

And then you start seeing these dudes out everywhere you go And you didn't swipe right so you can't make eye contact cuz that's awkward becuz they probably are like Oh shit I saw that b on the Apps I saw that girl on the Apps

Is this really how it's spose to go Is this really how things work now I just don't know I don't think its really necessary to always be On the Apps Be on the Apps Apps

Well I didn't last long Cuz it's a whole lot a frontin' And it's hard to have a conversation And even though it might be good for a @#$% I just wasn't having much luck And when it came down to it it was kinda fun and all but there just wasn't anybody that can compete with Pedro Pascal (reowwwrr)

So I got off the Apps I got off the Apps I got off the Apps I got off the Apps I got off the Apps

And what do ya know the other day I was walking along And there was a guy and I caught his eye and he definitely was not on the Apps We started talkin' and it was so easy and so there you have it You don't need the apps. The Apps. Adios Apps. Who needs ya.

My friends Grandpa is so hot. Also I totally thought of Deochii when I first heard it.

Well this is so much fun. Kind of has a Courtney Barnett feel, in a good way.

The modern world huh! I missed the app bus/train/boat, and I feel relieved but also a real fomo, what could have been! But then that is the problem, always looking over your shoulder at the next Dwight right (I meant swipe, but like Dwight Right as a name so leaving it).

Anyway, I enjoyed the song, especially the adlibs - v cool. It starts very Paul Dimin but I think you hit your own groove and totally owned it. The hook is nice and hooky! Good work!

Oh this is so groovy I love the electronic synths in this. Truly channeling your Paul Simon in that vocal delivery, fantastic!
