Navigating the new world through Casio beats, acoustic guitar and cats.

The New Weird

Gotta tell you 'bout my girl named Claire
Fell for her in a parking garage, her middle finger in the air
I wrote psychedelic punk and she wrote genre scenes
She didn't care I was a nerd 'cause we were rebels with dreams
And we're still all these things

She dresses like the sexiest goth biker
Her accent's still exotic to this day
Long legs to wrap around me
I'm so lucky that she found me
Not an ounce of beauty's ever gone away

She has a style all her own
Her thoughts are brighter than chrome
She's hotter than a million suns
She's my badass girl, and she's the one

I looked into her eyes and saw explosions
That shook my world just like a thrown grenade
Half the Earth once stood between us
But destiny had seen us
With those Eagle Eyes, and every glance she made

Edgy hair and tattoos
Play her in laser tag, you'll lose
She plays with Ouija boards for fun
She's my badass girl, and she's the one

But dig beneath the surface, she has endless treasures there
Her love is fierce and so much passion fuels her dreams
She keeps life an adventure, gives her all and won't give up
I only hope that I can show her all she means

Curiosity and drive
She makes me feel so alive
Yeah she's a badass who's hardcore
But you see, she's so much more

She's more than just a badass girl
She's more, much more, than just a badass girl
She's more, much more, than just a badass girl
She's more, much more, than just a badass girl

Badass Girl

There's a little man, Infinity Adventure
The coolest, happiest person that I know
He's got his mommy's eyes
And every moment's a surprise
When he bursts into the room with his Lambeau

I loved him at first sight on the ultrasound
He'd gone from Swedish Fish to tater tot in size
We built him his own room
And took the birthing class at Loom
And picked a name we hoped his life would symbolize

Adventure is his middle name
When it's cold and dark, don't worry, he's a flame
On the lowest days you know who soars higher than a plane
Adventure is his middle name

A scar upon his back that matches Mommy's
From the day we finally learned he was a boy
And though his birth was not as planned
He held our fingers in his hands
And in that moment there was pure relief and joy

First football play he saw, a Packers touchdown
He'd monkey bounce and camp Twink Twink Lit Star
Mommy fed and Daddy read
And when he'd rest his little head
On your shoulder you'd know how lucky you are

Adventure is his middle name
When it's cold and dark, don't worry, he's a flame
If you're weak or meek or weary, guess who's stronger than a train?
Adventure is his middle name

On Independence Day he started walking
And soon enough his first word was "meow"
Wizard's Tower snacks and parks
Finding sticks and feeling bark
And Otter Saddle walks we still do now

He knows a hundred words and munches crackers
I carry him like Goodnight Little Bear
He's more awesome every day
And if I had my way
I see this future with his mommy and me there:

We're building him a bunk bed
We're holding football kicks
We're camping, building our own tent from all of his found sticks

We're writing stories, writing songs
Maybe we'll put on a show
And the most exciting thought is he'll do things we don't now know

Adventure is his middle name
When it's cold and dark, don't worry, he's a flame
And when he's grown, it will be known, and you'll hear him explain
Adventure is his middle name
Adventure is his middle name
