Lyrics

A little backstory: I wrote this in a two take improv session and had it 90% recorded when Michelle walked by and basically said, "Hey, that's my jam - why aren't you asking me to record this??" I answered that I needed a hasty track for a prodcast bumper, this wasn't any kind of serious effort. But she was undeterred and grabbed the mic to record this tune in one take. I usually keep these prodcast tracks in cold storage but I thought this one actually had some appeal so I'm sharing it here!

On my own
Pretending I make money
All alone
except for Chris, he’s so smart and so funny
Without him, I couldn’t do this podcast
‘cause he’s the best and really shines in this brand new format

To get paid
I’m gonna need some sponsors
And I hope they pay a million dollars
And the Littles, I’m sure that they’ll keep listening
‘cause after all they’re gonna get Chris and me forever
