We're Giving Them A Nature Brain

NATUREBR
This song is a continuation of the theme of the girl's guardian angels giving the teachers nature brains. (See the explanation below if you're unfamiliar with this project). The top picture is the angels giving them nature brains and the bottom picture is the girl with her friend; the girl is keepin' it in mind that the angels told her to keep it a secret, what they're gonna do to the teachers. Upon reflection, I'm realizing I made the picture of a brain too grey. I'm kinda wishing it had more of a pink-ish tone to it. Then again, I've never seen an actual human brain, so maybe that's what color it would be.

As a side note, I've been attempting to teach myself how to rap, and if you've heard a number of these songs, you'll know the rap-parts tend to oscillate between being something rappy (or almost rappy), and being weird poetry-ish stuff. Then I found this cool dude's website a while back, and he has all these nifty videos and an eBook that show you how to learn how to rap. In 7 weeks, you'll hear the song where I started following this guy's suggestions. Um, I mean, I'm not sayin' I'm good at rapping yet. But you might hear a difference in 7 weeks.

Here's the website I'm talkin' about: https://colemizestudios.com/  His name is Cole Mize, and he's really nice. He knows his stuff, yesiree.

No, but yeah, I would say that my rap skills are analogous to those of kid who knows how to play "Let's Go Band" or "Mary Had a Little Lamb" on the cello, and rappers who have been doin' it for a while, like Mike Shinoda, are akin to Yo Yo Ma. It's gonna be a long time before I'm as crafty and clever as them, those Yo Yo Mas of rap music. Yeah, I'm, like, not narcissistic enough to think I'm anywhere near as good as people who know their shit. That kind of skill takes years and years and lotsa hard practice to get to.

Poopist.

Weird nature brain
This is last week's song if you turn it around backwards.

The lyrics are:

We’re giving them a nature brain, we’re giving them a nature brain

We’re giving them a nature, giving them a nature, giving them a nature brain

I will keep it confidential, cuz they say it’s confidential

And I’ll keep it confidential cuz they say

Everyone’ll benefit from what we’ll do

All the teachers in the school will have something new

They will get to sit and knit in nature, ‘tis true

Singing timeless summers and they’ll never be blue

One day, I started writing a song about a fucked up school. Then, a few days later, that lawsuit came out, involving those pervy professors in the Dartmouth Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences. I was all, oh, my stars!!! That’s where I got my Ph.D.! Then I finished writing the song about a week later. I thought it was just a song about how the school system fucks up kids, but after I finished writing and recording it, I realized parts of it were about my experiences in that poopy psych department (the unconscious mind works in mysterious ways). In any event, I decided to write an album about a fucked up school in order to process my experiences of having been in that department and how the culture there impacted me. This album ain’t necessarily about Dartmouth, per se. It’s more of a weird, inner exploration where I’m, like, having a fucked up dialogue with my unconscious about my experiences at Dartmouth. Jung used to call that kind of stuff “active imagination.” So far, this album follows the story of a girl, whose guardian angels try to protect her, but often can't find her. The angels at some point decide that they have to protect the girl from those nasty teachers and start to plot against them. But then they realize that they don’t wanna actually harm the teachers, so they, instead, make the teachers' brains into nature brains ™, which are basically brains that hear communications coming from nature spirits. The angels do this because they think it’ll give those teachers more empathy, and will, in turn, be nice to the students.
