BAAD BED

Liner Notes

H: John sent me 2 backing tracks that would be playable by my band. The lyrics to this one were inspired by the chords to the verse, which were "B A A D B E D."

I'm visiting my mum at the moment, so don't have my proper mic and am less comfortable shouting about getting trapped in bed than I might be in my own home.

Z: Hahahaha - Of course I had totally forgotten what I had sent, because, um, FAWM, and when I read where the title came from, it gave me a good laugh. Yep - it's right there in my e-mail! I love where this song went and I am excited to get this properly recorded and join in the backing vocal yells "BAAD BED!!!!". Being stuck in bed is something I FULLY support. It is so much fun to write songs with Helen!!

Lyrics

I'm stuck in here and I can't move I've got so many things to do But I can't get out from under my covers

Don't think it's lack of energy That's making me feel this way There's something much more ominous

Baad bed Baad bed It holds me captive Keeps me held fast in my Baad bed

Could call it Stockholm syndrome or just procrastination but I am starting to adore my captor

Could I call in to work? Tell the all about The hostage situation I've got into with my

Baad bed Baad bed It holds me captive Keeps me held fast in my Baad bed

Highly relatable, highly melodic, highly energetic. I have often been stuck in the Land of Bed myself!

This rules! Probably should win the most punk song of fawm. Great energy. "The hostage situation I've got into with my baad bed" super rad! Gold star!

What a cool idea to write the lyrics based on the chord names. Truly unique. And rmyoh two definitely have some energy!!! Punk in your face

Cracking guitar and the vocal holds that pace. Clever to use the chords to get your hook word. Full of energy right to that lst cymbal smash.

What a great set of lyrics! Song length under 2 minutes fits the punk ethos as well. Fun collab!

Great Energy and fun inspiration for a title! Calling in to work about a bed hostage situation should be a valid excuse for anyone!
