Description
My buddy Thomas was falsely accused of wearing speedos one day when he went jogging. Unfortunately for him, the accusation and jokes just won't go away. Fortunately for me, it gave me the material to write my first ever song with lyrics. So, thank you Tom for being a good sport! All guitar and vocals are done by myself.

Lyrics
Once upon a time
on a hot summer day
Thomas cooled himself
In a curious way

He went to the store
With money in hand
He said to the clerk
I want speedos made
Spandex

One day Doug was driving
And much to his surprise
Thomas was wearing speedos
And shaving his thighs

Tom said: I'm an (not really)
Olympic swimmer, I shave out of
Need. My hairless body gives me
Much desired speed.

If you want to wear speedos that fine
but please shave your bikini line.
Tom whats with the obsession?
If anyone makes fun of you, you
get speedo aggression.

Thomas wears a speedo.
And he stuffs it with a Cheeto.

funny
I really liked the way you rhymed 'hand' with the first
syllable of 'spandex'...it made me laugh, as did many
other parts of the song.

One possible improvement that comes to mind is to make
the ending more abrupt, maybe changing the last line
to be spoken softly and
quickly...AndHeStuffsItWithACheeto...and then *cut*.

Ah, what the heck do I know. I like how much fun you have
with music.

funny
Thanks for the comment! Yeah my fav. part of the song is the 'spandex' part one
where hand rhymes with 'spand-' and the '-dex' fades into the first little solo bit.

speedo aggression
Hey Devon,

ha ha, this was fun to listen to man,
i love the speedo aggression line,
the guitar work sounds a bit shaky, but I think
that actually gives it extra charm.
I am digging your speedo tune.

Cheers

speedo aggression
Glad you liked the tune! It was alot of fun to make. I do like the 'speedo
aggression' part. Perhaps I've coined a new phrase here? ;) I do realize the guitar
could be a little better. I can hear the problems with it, but I just don't have the
time to fool with it really. It was a fun song, nothing more. Fortunately, I don't
think it detracts from the tune much. Thanks for you comments. Always
appreciated.

leaves nothing to the imagination
Heh heh... this is pretty dam funny! Good tune to break out at parties if there's a guitar handy, especially if there's cheetos around.

Wasn't this a Seinfeld episode? Anyway, this was
funny... the lyrics are great.

Hilarious
Excellent lyrics - I actually laughed out loud, not too
common when I'm alone in my room...
Cool artwork, as well.

good writing!
very amusing song. There's some fuzz throughout which
could be fixed with some cutting and eqing.

I've been playing guitar for about 11 years. Never played seriously enough to be in a band, let alone practiced enough to be really good... I just pick it up and fool around here and there. I love to play, it's relaxing, it's fun, it's a good emotion... [see more]
