Description:
No sooner did I put 3 tune-up loops together, out came Mr. Simpson in all his glory. Please bear in mind that Mr. Simpson's neighbour has already gone partly mad due to all his suffering at the hands of Mr. Simpson, hence all his different voices. Hasn't this wretched neighbour ever heard of "moving?" As a side note, the picture is the closest likeness to Mr. Simpson that I could find.

Lyrics:
Mr. Simpson won’t you try to be my friend
when is all this trouble ever going to end

you let your dog relieve himself on my lawn (every single day!)
you put your garbage where it doesn’t belong (on my property!)
and you don’t seem to think there’s anything wrong
but let me tell you, tell you, tell you

I could give your dog a bone, a special one when he’s alone
and nobody’ll know, who caused his early demise
I could rent a farmer’s truck and fill it with some real good stuff
and nobody’ll know, who left that smelly surprise
and then I’ll be gone...

Mr. Simpson won’t you try to be my friend
when is all this trouble ever going to end

you let your gardener chop my favourite tree (it was grandmother’s!)
you play accordion at quarter to three (in the morning!)
it’s your true nature that you don’t wanna see
but let me tell you, tell you, tell you

I could cut your fruit trees down and prune your roses to the ground
and nobody’ll know, the green thumb on the go
I could bring a bagpipe band the biggest loudest in the land
and nobody’ll know, just what brought on the show
and then I’ll be gone...

I’m telling you Mr. Simpson, this can’t go on. Remember that line that says “love thy neighbour"? Well, doesn’t it mean anything to you? ... at all? Here goes...

Mr. Simpson won’t you try to be my friend
when will all this trouble (ever) end

Great Fun &mdash 04/03/05 - 12:26:00 AM
Very funny and deranged. Love the jazz workout in the
second half. Great piano work.

Good fences may make good neighbors.... &mdash 04/03/05 - 05:50:50 PM
....but a bazooka can make the bad ones go away. Very
funny, very fresh. Love the jazzy feel, especially toward
the end. Tell the different voices in the neighbor's head
they did a great job.

Hilarious &mdash 04/03/05 - 06:46:32 PM
What a perfect voice. The first "when is all this trouble
ever going to end" gives you some trouble, but otherwise
you bullseyed it.

You piano playing is humongous. You are the
arpeggiator.

Best entry so far . . . by a considerable margin.

Great stuff! Funny and awesome musicianship.

hehe great &mdash 04/04/05 - 05:53:52 PM
Well done, D. Very funny and it really swings. Nice
cartoony singing. Reminds me of Sandy Squirrel from
Spongebob Squarepants... minus the Texas accent.

I love a good funky weird song. &mdash 04/05/05 - 02:03:55 PM
Funky weird is a compliment. I don't know where you
come up with this stuff but it's so fun to hear. Your voice
is so cute and crazy at the same time.

Mr Simpson needs to see a dentist!... &mdash 04/05/05 - 09:40:22 PM

LOL..i love the fun you put into your songs.

thank you for yet another round of funny, entertaining
and clever music! :)

(not to mention the talent!)

It seems like you have the midas touch &mdash 04/05/05 - 10:24:47 PM
Everything seems so animated. Your technique is just out
of this world. Great ideas. Nice story.

You can tell a story like a few can because your are so well
crafted in playing and stylizing your (happy) voice. Good
therapy for me.

You can run... &mdash 04/05/05 - 10:52:48 PM
But you can't hide! No matter how far you move away - A Mr. Simpson is always there!

I really enjoyed this piece. The music and tone was so fun and interesting! I feel like I know your Mr. Simpson! (Or maybe his clone lives next to me!!!)

Great work! Extremely Creative!

Simpson in our lives.

you &mdash 04/07/05 - 12:46:40 AM
thanks so much frml! I'm a firm believer in the notion that one should never
take themselves too seriously, otherwise they tend to get really boring....
Cheers.

You nailed it. &mdash 04/06/05 - 12:10:29 PM
If Mr. Simpson listens to this, you'll be nailed. Oh my. I
love it. I know exactly what you are talking about. I have a
neighbor's barking dogs issue I am trying to resolve.

The burp is supreme.

[ Reply to This ]
You nailed it. &mdash 04/07/05 - 12:44:46 AM
thanks for that rschletty. I'm really glad the burp didn't seem to offend. As for
the barking dog problem you're having, my in-laws had the same problem
and were able to get the police to enforce that the neighbours always keep
their dogs inside; not long after, those neighbours moved away!

mr. simpson &mdash 04/07/05 - 02:03:05 AM

infamous duels with mr wilson.

Love it! &mdash 04/12/05 - 05:38:06 PM
This is great... can't wait until the video!

Funalicious... &mdash 04/24/05 - 03:02:14 PM
Funny and splorg!
Wanders a bit far with the extended jazz outro.
Short and sweet would be quite neat
but please don't eat the moldy green meat...
really...

surprise &mdash 10/27/05 - 09:02:59 PM
Imagine my surprise when I googled my name and up came your song

i did like it

Suprising vocals &mdash 12/02/05 - 04:19:43 AM
I have listened to most of your songs now Daphne but this one was a
bonus.

Singing like this is quite hard to do as you have matched it with the fast
melody.
Demostrates to me that you have lots of ample ability and I could just
imagine how this would be a great soundtrack in a short cartoon.

Perhaps an animator could do it as it fits well with your cartoon, fun style
of vocals.
Well done Daphne. :-)

[ Reply to This ]
Brilliant! &mdash 06/22/07 - 03:42:53 AM
And so-o-o funny. Your voice is perfect for this kind of thing (Operetta??? LOL). The production and all is marvellous. Laughed my socks off, M
