you had to leave your mark, without leaving your heart

This is The Rough Draft, the newest album from Bug Hunter

Be Glad I Love You (Go To Bed)

Hands up if life is getting stressful
And shout if you are saddened by the news
I need some tips to cope,
some data or some anecdotes,
'cause right now nothing's workin' for my blues

Sometimes I deal by playing music
and sometimes I relax by reading books
Sometimes I go downtown,
climb a tree and don't come down
and throw a bunch of pinecones at people

A crowd has formed around my tree,
just out of reach, and the police have
blocked the street on every side
But no one can climb it and
I think its 'cause they know I have
a pinecone here for everyone who tries

I yell: I'm gonna live to be a hundred
I'm gonna see them cure disease
Then I'm gonna watch them
go to war over the royalties so
if you need me, I'll be in the tree

If you need me, I'll be in the tree
There's several cameras pointed up into my tree
it seems the world's concerned with what I might do next…
Throwing pinecones at photographers
from up here in this conifer
like Tarzan getting scouted by the Mets

Yeah, I'm gonna live to be a thousand
Got robot arms and run on robot feet
Got robot legs and robot head
and my robot ass don't know it yet but
I'd be better off back in the tree

So if you need me, I'll be in the tree…

'Cause no one's asking what would drive me up this pine
Is it protest? Am I being paid to preach or advertise?
No, this non-deciduous decision was all mine
You can show a horse the ropes
but no, you cannot make him climb

And this tree's a makeshift metaphor and I prefer to think
I'm just a stressed out Christmas ornament
who needs some space to breathe
And if the camera crews and crowded streets
and dozens of police
are my endless pressures manifested down below my tree
Then this giant stack of pinecones…
They are the lame and immature ways I deal with them
But also how satisfying it is to do so...
To dome one... when they're not looking... yeah

I'm gonna live to be a million
Longer than the flowers, birds and bees
but if I start to come undone,
make like a tree and hug someone
Everybody needs a place to breathe
just recognize when it is time to leave

I'm probably gonna live forever
but should I die (and that may be preferred)
take me out and bury me
and plant a tree right over me
so I may help someone escape the world

Yeah, I may help someone escape the world

Pinecones

We’re RARE AMERICANS—animated storytellers focused on the real and raw. We sing for the underdogs and don’t shy away from life’s toughest corners. Over the past five years, we’ve built a pretty dope community of kids around the world. 

In just a few years, we’ve racked up over 700 million streams, embarked on sold-out tours across North America and Europe, and even earned a Juno nomination for “Breakthrough Group of the Year”—Canada’s equivalent of a Grammy. But we’re just getting started. 2024 is shaping up to be our most ambitious year yet. Our sixth album in six years, “The Human Animal,” dropped on August 16— twenty-five tracks that explore the full spectrum of the human experience. From our most awe-inspiring inventions to the darkest aspects of our nature, and the vast emotions we grapple with daily, this album delves into the essence of humanity, a theme that has always captivated us. This year also marks the release of our 90-minute animated punk rock musical, “(S)kids.” The project premiered with two sold-out screenings at the prestigious Annecy Animation Festival in France and is currently making its rounds on the film festival circuit. Fans can expect to see it in the coming months.

We’ve spent the last two years in the recording and animation studio, crafting our best work yet. We can’t wait to bring our new songs and animations to life on stage. Our Europe tour kicks off on September 26th in London, with more dates to be announced soon.
