Chicken Wings are a Problem
Track twelve of Musical Stories Hardly Worth Telling - Chicken Wings Are a Problem
Lyrics:
There is something in the animal rights world
I don't think people are fighting for hard enough
and I am part of the problem
It's chicken wings
[Chorus]
Chicken wings are a problem because
they are excellent
they're just the right size
you have a perfect ratio of sauce to meat in every bite
they come in all kinds of flavours
barbecue,
hot sauce,
dill pickle,
honey garlic,
If you’ve ever had a flavour
they've got it on a chicken wing.
But that's not the problem
the problem is the price
sometimes on wings nights
they're so cheap
for $5 you can eat the wings off of five chickens
think about this
I eat dinner
now there's five chickens walking around
with no wings
it’s impossible to pick up chicks
Later the chickens hang out with the other birds
and they're like “What happened to you? You got no wings”
“Oh, the humans chopped my wings off
put ‘em in barbecue sauce
and ate ‘em”
Oh man that's terrible
you can't even fly now!
I couldn't really fly before anyways
[Chorus]
Chicken wings are a problem because
they are excellent
they're just the right size
you have a perfect ratio of sauce to meat in every bite
they come in all kinds of flavours
barbecue,
hot sauce,
dill pickle,
honey garlic,
If you’ve ever had a flavour
they've got it on a chicken wing.
and that's the sickest thing
we're taking a flightless bird
chopping its wings off
and just eating those
don't chickens have it hard enough
don't we mock them enough
we've got a dumb little dance to mock a chicken
when we're hanging out and someone's too afraid to do something
hey are you chicken?
Bro are you chicken?
and there's no honour in it
It's not like it's an ostrich or something
that's a big bird
maybe if it was an ostrich you could fight the ostrich and if you won you got to eat its wings as a badge of honour
that's a big bird I could fight an ostrich and lose
and I would be fine with that
[Chorus]
Chicken wings are a problem because
they are excellent
they're just the right size
you have a perfect ratio of sauce to meat in every bite
they come in all kinds of flavours
barbecue,
hot sauce,
dill pickle,
honey garlic,
If you’ve ever had a flavour
they've got it on a chicken wing.
Can you imagine if I fought a chicken and lost
That chicken would go down in history
he'd be the great Logan Slayer
but me I would go down in history too
whenever the chickens were hanging out
and one of them was too afraid to do something
they'd be like Hey are you Logan?
you're too Logan aren’t you?
So I took one of my Stand-up bits and used Udio v1 AI to make it into this song. Using my prompts and song lyrics. Udio’s Ai also made the image and simple video.

Tiny Spears
Track thirteen of Musical Stories Hardly Worth Telling - Tiny Spears
Lyrics:
The dentist doesn't bother me so much
except for two things
Flossing at home isn’t fun,
but I do it every day
When you go to the dentist
they warm up by jabbing your gums
with those tiny spears
and implements of torture
Then they floss with the strength of the Hulk
until you bleed
[Chorus]
And they say
you must not floss because you're bleeding
And I think,
I floss every day
I'll switch you places
and floss you and we'll see if you bleed
But I don’t say it,
because they’re all set up
with the torture chair and the tiny spears
After all that is the fluoride rinse
it's mouthwash but it's special mouthwash
it's not like you use at home
it comes in two flavors
they've got rotten berries
and mint they had just used to clean the toilet
you swish it for 30 seconds
and then you spit it out
and then you spit it out
and then you spit it out
and you're not allowed to swallow or rinse it out
it's just there, it makes you want to puke
but you can't puke
cuz it rinse out the fluoride
[Chorus]
And they say
you must not floss because you're bleeding
And I think
I floss every day
I'll switch you places
and floss you and we'll see if you bleed
But I don’t say it
because they’re all set up
with the torture chair and the tiny spears

Bold Bug Fighter
Track eleven of Musical Stories Hardly Worth Telling - Bold Bug Fighter
Lyrics:
If I couldn’t be a Superhero,
I would be the next best thing
A pest control guy
is a low level superhero
[Chorus]
A pest control guy
is a low level superhero
I’m a
Mild mannered comedian by night
Bold bug fighter by day
Protecting your home
from the smallest of invaders
Sometimes we meet people,
that think we are villains
going across the countryside
slaughtering innocent animals
They’re defending
cute and cuddly
seals, baby lions, anything that might be
a good guy in a Disney movie but,
[Chorus]
A pest control guy
is a low level superhero
I’m a
Mild mannered comedian by night
Bold bug fighter by day
Protecting your home
from the smallest of invaders
No one's out there with picket signs saying
save the flees no more pesticide
no one's out there protecting rats
these dirty little guys
busting in your house stealing your food crapping everywhere
or bed bugs,
the greatest villain of them all,
no one's going
bed bugs need a home too
you could share your bed with a bed bug
[Chorus]
A pest control guy
is a low level superhero
I’m a
Mild mannered comedian by night
Bold bug fighter by day
Protecting your home
from the smallest of invaders
you can have the most
Earth loving person
when they get a spider in their house,
rather than squish it like a normal person,
they use persuasive language and
gentle tones to coax it
into an adjoining room specifically for spiders
because it's too cold to go directly outside
same person gets bed bugs
they’re like
kill everything
do whatever it takes
I don't care if I can never go back
so we burn their house down
[Chorus]
A pest control guy
is a low level superhero
I’m a
Mild mannered comedian by night
Bold bug fighter by day
Protecting your home
from the smallest of invaders
I don't have a cape but,
at least I've got pockets

I Could be a Superhero
Track ten of Musical Stories Hardly Worth Telling - I Could Be a Superhero
Lyrics:
So I went to the next most logical step
which was of course,
to be a Superhero
That's another good job
It doesn't have any of the problems that being an athlete does
you don't need any previous experience
or training of any kind
[Chorus]
Bit by a radioactive spider
[Shout] Superhero
Fall in radioactive goo, go blind,
[Shout] Superhero
Sometimes they’re just aliens
and don't know it
I could be an alien
I’m from a big family
one of us could have slipped in
I started designing my superhero costume
What do superheroes wear?
Spandex Suits
As flattering as that would be for me
there was a problem with the spandex suit
No pockets!
[Chorus]
Bit by a radioactive spider
[Shout] Superhero
Fall in radioactive goo, go blind,
[Shout] Superhero
Sometimes they’re just aliens
and don't know it
I could be an alien
But there is a super person,
not really a hero,
the Hulk,
he wears those slick purple jeans
he's got pockets in there
but when he gets angry
he gets all huge and green
his hands are too big to fit in his pockets
you ever had a pair of jeans like this?
Where your hands can't fit in your pockets?
it’s so frustrating
I relate to the Hulk
[Chorus]
Exposed to Gamma radiation
[Shout] Superhero
Bit by a radioactive spider
[Shout] Superhero
Fall in radioactive goo, go blind,
[Shout] Superhero
sometimes they’re just aliens
and don't know it
I could be an alien

Prewrecked Jeans
Track eight of Musical Stories Hardly Worth Telling - Prewrecked Jeans
Lyrics:
But it didn't get any better
because next came
the longest lasting style of any
Already worn out jeans
ones with rips and scuffs
and holes already in them
[Chorus]
You have every convenience
You should never have to work
But you want to look like a hard worker
We have pre-wrecked jeans
We’ve done the work for you
and ripped your jeans
so you don’t have to
If I want a pair of ruined jeans
I will buy fresh jeans and wear them out myself
I do not need the sweat shop kids
wearing my jeans for two years first
Do we sell anything else this way?
Can you imagine going to buy a car
You're looking at all the shiny new cars
the dealer comes over and she's like
[Chorus]
You have every convenience
You should never have to work
But you want to look like a hard worker
We have pre-wrecked cars
We’ve done the work for you
and crashed your car
so you don’t have to
“Hey I got a really cool one to show you
just come over here.
You may have seen it in the drunk driving ads
The windshield totally smashed
The passenger rear side door is completely gone
There's rust details all around
even on the top and on the inside
those are tricky to get
and if you if you hit the gas
the back axle will fall right off
and get this it is only 10 grand more
only 10 grand more
[Chorus]
You have every convenience
You should never have to work
But you want to look like a hard worker
We have pre-wrecked jeans
We’ve done the work for you
and ripped your jeans
so you don’t have to

Denim Exhibitionists
Track seven of Musical Stories Hardly Worth Telling - Denim Exhibitionists
I got tired of adding all the titles, maybe I will some time, but for now here are the lyrics:
After tearaways and ski jumps
went out of style
in came huge oversized jeans
like giant balloon pants
always hanging down
guys were walking around
with their legs far apart
trying to keep their pants up
but they're all hanging down
I don't want to see your Simpson boxers
[Chorus]
Why can’t they just wear jeans that fit?
Those pants can’t be comfortable
Riding up and hanging down
It’s got to be annoying
Who convinced them
to wear those jeans?
Do they really believe it’s better?
So when the next style started coming in
I was grateful
It was the super tight jeans for guys
and I thought
“Great they're going to be tight
so they're not going to fall down.
I might see all the detail
but I'm not going to see
the butts anymore”
[Chorus]
Why can’t they just wear jeans that fit?
Those pants can’t be comfortable
Riding up and hanging down
It’s got to be annoying
Who convinced them
to wear those jeans?
Do they really believe it’s better?
But do you know what happened?
Rather than getting men's skinny jeans,
guys would wear women's jeans
and you may not know this
but women's jeans are cut differently than men's jeans
Women's jeans don't come up all the way
so guys still couldn’t keep their jeans up
and their butts were still hanging out
so you had all the disadvantages of women pants
and all the disadvantages of fat man pants at the same time
[Chorus]
Why can’t they just wear jeans that fit?
Those pants can’t be comfortable
Riding up and hanging down
It’s got to be annoying
Who convinced them
to wear those jeans?
Do they really believe it’s better?

Pockets of Ambition
Track nine of Musical Stories Hardly Worth Telling - Pockets of Ambition
Here's a sneak peak track before the albums releases September 4th.
Lyrics:
But you know School eventually ends.
And then you get to have the freedom
of a full-time job
I was working for a small company
and my boss wanted to expand
sending me to open offices in Calgary and Thailand
Everything was great
[Chorus 1]
Until one day
I was standing outside it's a little cold
I put my hands in my pockets
My coworker said “Get your hands out of your pockets
don't let the boss see you
he hates people putting their hands in their pockets”
[Chorus 2]
And I thought No, No, No!
This job is going nowhere,
because I love my pockets
Why do you think Men wear suits?
For looks?
No, for Pockets
Pants have pockets in the front, pockets in the back.
Shirt's got a little pocket in there
Suit pockets on the outside pockets on the inside
So I had to quit that job
I started thinking okay well what else can I do
Well I could be a phenomenal professional athlete
that's a good job!
[Chorus 1]
Until one day
I was standing outside it's a little cold
I put my hands in my pockets
My coworker said “Get your hands out of your pockets
don't let the boss see you
he hates people putting their hands in their pockets”
I did some research
Turns out 22 is a bit late to start
Most of these athletes
start doing push-ups as a fetus
But why I’m not a professional athlete
I'm fairly athletic
I don't understand
Thinking back to gym class
I never liked gym class
what do you wear in gym class?
well you wear shorts or sweatpants
You know what's wrong with shorts and sweatpants?
No pockets!
I was thwarted from becoming a professional athlete by Gym Class apparel
if I had been allowed to stand around gym class with my hands in my pockets
I would have been a professional athlete
[Chorus 2]
And I thought No, No, No!
This job is going nowhere,
because I love my pockets
Why do you think Men wear suits?
For looks?
No, for Pockets.
Pants have pockets in the front, pockets in the back.
Shirt's got a little pocket in there
Suit pockets on the outside pockets on the inside
[Chorus 1]
Until one day
I was standing outside it's a little cold
I put my hands in my pockets
My coworker said “Get your hands out of your pockets
don't let the boss see you
he hates people putting their hands in their pockets”
