Nice Picnic, Peckerhead

 


Nice picnice peckerhead cop

I might not have an opportunity to record another song till this Sunday or thereabouts, so I'm posting a really old song that I'd never previously posted. This one is from 2015. I was doing this project back then, where I made an album of songs that have samples of dialogue from the movie, Skins

See, sometimes when people talk, the ups and downs in their speech form rudimentary melodies. Usin' samples of people talking in this movie, I used the melodies formed by the dialogue in order to construct songs. This particular album has a repetition of the theme, "he sees that it's gone" in it a bunch, which, if you're following this blog, you'll have noticed came up in a song probably in November or December or something.

This song's lyrics describe what happens in the scene from which the samples are derived. The two dudes talking are Eric Schweig (playing Rudy Yellow Lodge) and Graham Greene (playing Mogie Yellow Lodge):

Eric: "You're an asshole."

Graham: "Peckerhead."

Eric: "What did you say?"

Graham: "Nice picnic, peckerhead."

He got grumpy at his brother when he took his ball
He thinks he is arrogant and self-righteous and tall
He got grumpy cuz he spilled beer on his favorite shirt
And then they both rolled around and wrestled in the dirt.

What did you say, what did you say?

He got scared because he thought he had a heart attack
And now he'd give anything just to get him back
And then he said he was fine, and he knows it's true
But now there is one more thing he cannot undo

He sees that it's gone

What did you say, what did you say?

He sees that it's gone

Here's the alternative player thingy, just in case the one up top doesn't work when you attempt to play it on your portable electronic device:
