SONG NAME: Filler Song
PARODY OF: N/A
SUBJECT: Songs Put On Albums To Fill Space
CREDITS: Austin Aeschliman: Lead vocals, producer. Ted Wilson: Back-up vocals, guitar, engineer. Ivy Shaffer: Back-up vocals.
COOL STUFF: Insane Ian's favorite song on Wrong Side of the Bed (Thanks Ian!), and one of mine too. Ironically it's probably one of the least filler songs on the album.
RELEASED ON: Wrong Side of the Bed
ORIGIN: This actually was going to be on the next album after Wrong Side of the Bed. See I had 12 songs already written for the CD and didn't want to add a 13th. I started work on recording those and forgot about this one. When I started taking notes on how to record one original song I wrote in the studio, I realized it would cost a lot of money because it had a lot to it. So I looked for another idea, and remember this. Originally Filler Song was an acapella piece but it turned into an acoustic after we found it very hard to record acapella in the studio.
LYRICS: Lyrics by Austin Aeschliman
I saw the track listing was eleven
And I really wanted twelve
So I threw a song together at the last minute
And I know it’s not written very well
I thought there’d be more bang for buck (Bang for buck)
With a few extra rhymes
And I thought the album would look better
If I added three minutes to my overall album time
This is a filler song
This is a filler song
Sure ain’t no killer song
Well this is what you paid for yeah
You’re probably thinking, “Hey where’s the drums?”
Well sorry the guy had the night off
Better bet that this won’t be single
If it is then something has gone wrong
You might think “Why are you a musician?”
Hear the oher songs they’re better I swear
Now go and get your refund from iTunes
You know this song is as bad as Carrot Top’s hair
I know you hate when bands don’t take the time
(Take the time)
To put together a good tune
In most album’s the track placement’s a sign (A sign)
So don’t expect this to be track two
This isn’t much to hear musically (Or lyrically)
Dino-Mike has much better songs
But every song in the Shot-Bus Suite
Is a filler so at least I just did it once
This is a filler song
This is a filler song
This is a filler song
Well this is what you paid for yeah
This is a filler song (This is a filler song)
This is a filler song (A filler song)
This is a filler song (Oh yeah)
This is what you paid for yeah
(This is what you paid for yeah)
This is what you paid for yeah
(This is what, this is what, this is what you paid for yeah)
Uh, we might work on that one
