Uranian Girl (Where Are You Going With That Death Ray?)

by @anthonykapfer

Liner Notes

edit i didn’t intend for this to be the last song of this fawm. i wrote something else on feb 28th that i didn’t like, so i didn’t post it. i kind of fizzled out towards the end of the month, but that’s ok. i feel really good about the material i’ve written this time.

thank you for listening and commenting on my stuff this year. ———————————-

here's a silly one.

this is another space rock song. i have the song "i see uranus at night" and i thought my space rock opera could use more storyline. so this is about the girl from uranus. she tries to kill the main character, who falls in love with her.

i'm not sure what happens next, but i figured the concept album could use a brief love story.

#garage #powerpop #punk

Lyrics

well you’re bald and you're green and you’re ten feet tall i’m gonna boldly go where no human’s gone well we're caught in deep space 69 it’s a close encounter of the no pants kind

uranian girl

she is from planet uranus and she's a girl

are you a space pirate? cause your booty is out of this world i know i'm only an earthling but lets give it a whirl you are the alien life form of my dreams and in space no one can hear us scream

uranian girl

she is from planet uranus girl

uranian girl

wait! where are you going with that death ray? wait! i’m afraid you’ll vaporize me

please don’t point that thing at me no, please don’t point that thing at me

ouch!

in my minds eye, i see the band members doing devo-like movements as they play this song.

Very cool, super surf rocky spacey, all around fun!

Love the surf/punk sound. Really fits. Fun video too!

Totally digging the surf rock/punk mashup you’ve got going here. This is so much fun! That chromatic ascension on “she is from planet uranus” is brilliant. Super duper cool!

I'd unironically watch a movie with songs like this as the entire score. Great job!

Hilarious and I love all the video content this fawm! This gives B52s meets Weird Al. All your grunts and other vocal sounds put this over the top. The please don't point that thing at me is classic.

snort Deep space 69. Classic.

This is super silly and awesome. 😄 Reminds me of They Might Be Giants but punkier.
