I enjoyed how the different guitar parts are distinct but really work well together

really interesting lyrics. dad jokes line is great

Loud applause - you write about an upside down Kingdom we all long for. Brilliant work. 

Are you doing 2 songs a week? You make me feel lazy! These lyrics were a blast and the melody is very catchy. An interesting twist on the theme for this week! Well done!

Great song! It has your sense of humor married with Big Star.

The guitar - how wonderful, hooks me in, nice tension building - really love it!  And the lyrics, so funny, I'm smiling, nice start to my day.

I like the way the last lines bring it back around again.

Ope, your Midwestern is showing. ;) This is a delightful tune, friend!

OH, now I understand why so many people was tagging you on dad jokes in Facebook! HAHAHA. I can 100% confirm that chorus is REAL <3

"Don't Threaten Me" (#378, 200719)

Seems like today everything's a competition
From money and careers to huntin' and fishin'
If you're comin' after me I got a warning for you
When my back's against the wall I know exactly what to do

So don't threaten me because I'll kill you with kindness
Tell dad jokes 'til you're laughin', hug you 'til you're cryin'
As soon as you think I'm about to let up
I'll say somethin' sweet and you'll feel like a million bucks

Everybody wants to be a big deal
Top dog big cheese king of the hill
Doesn't seem to last though when we step on each other
So check it out if you come at me you'll see my true colors

Oh don't threaten me man I'll kill you with kindness
Tell dad jokes 'til you're laughin', hug you 'til you're cryin'
As soon as you think I'm about to let up
I'll say somethin' sweet and you'll feel like a million bucks

Here's an idea what if we work together
And rise above the rest in any kinda' weather
Show 'em how it's done they might learn a thing or two
But if not I'm gonna' tell 'em the same thing I told you
