Well it seems we Time Zone Zombies sometime take requests. Recently Corina suggested we write a song based on some of the kookie material in the "Recording sucks when..."-thread. Well Yep inspiration struck and here we are.

Practicing goes great but then these bright lights need to go on because the image quality needs to be perfect.
Then, when my eyes finally adjust to that, B) and we're half way down a song, I forget to breathe, or need to cough, the guitar goes slightly off key, or someone we all know very well, makes me laugh! :silly:
Oh wait, then all goes well and I'm already winking at my glass of wine, 'cause, when finished we usually relax and have dinner accompanied by a nice red, but then Someone (!) decides her hair isn't in order!! So we start all over again :blink: :S
And noooooo, that wouldn't be me :laugh:
(everything written above is based upon a true story, any coincidences do make totally sense, no harm was done to any of the instruments.)
Copyright... oh well, I leave that to the Time Zone Zombies, this thread may have you two fully inspired to write a "Goofy song" this time :laugh:
Cheers,
Corina
We decided to just go for a rough demo on this one. If it ends up on the album it will be a bonus track. David wrote the lyrics ... the day before last. He sent me his tracks yesterday while I was at work, last night I put them together and today I added mine and edited it to the extent that it is, which is very little; it's rough and ready. And because recording video especially sucks!, we thought we'd save ourselves some pain this time and go with the flow of the song instead.
By the way, whether he was having a bad hair day or not, Elvis was still gorgeous. well what is bad hair anyway. ... actually the 80s have a LOT to answer for in the hair department.
Well we hope you get a giggle out of this one. We did.
Bad Hair Blues
Bad hair day
Bad hair day
I‘m gonna be a star
I got a brand new recording
I spent all day filming my song
I played it pretty good
It sounded as it should
But there was only one thing that was wrong
Only one thing that was wrong
I had a bad hair day
A bad hair day
The song i put my heart in
But i didn’t check my parting
I had a bad hair day
Well the camera lens
Is gonna find your split ends
I had a bad hair day
By now i should be counting my rock star earnings
Thought i’d be filling my account with pure gold
When i saw my take
I started to shake
Hope I die before I go bald
Hope i die before i go bald
It was a bad hair day
I had a bad hair day
I should be running to the bank
But my hair was pretty rank
It was a bad hair day
If you’re looking for fame
You’d better manage your mane
I had a bad hair day
I was thinking I’d be living a celebrity lifestyle
Money, fast cars and girls
Be sharing a mattress
With a famous actress
I should have paid more attention to my curls
Paid more attention to my curls
It was a bad hair day
I had a bad hair day
I was happy with my singing
But my hair was minging
I had a bad hair day
If you wanna make it big
Next time wear a wig
It was a bad hair day
If you want a better image
You’d better polish your plumage
It was a bad hair day
You want to bring it on home
Please lend me your comb
It was a bad hair day
You must be having a laugh
Think you could make it with that coiffe
It was a bad hair day
