Yup. Androgyny has been found. And Bob Lewis released it to the world. And I have covered it.

Androgyny (Devo cover)

보천보전자악단 ＬＡＢＯＵＲＷＡＶＥ

Devo cover featuring drum samples taken from Jim Mothersbaugh's homemade electronic kit (sourced by scouring old Devo tracks)

LYRICS
Well, I'm a Huboon, baby
I'm a cross between a human and an ape
I'm all gagged out
I'm gonna hoot, I'm gonna root, I'm gonna rape
People look at me and laugh
And make fun of my face
I laugh right back
I don't want to be part of the human race

I did it to myself
Now somebody's gonna be sorry!

Well, I'm a Huboon, baby
Gonna mess around with all you fools
I'm all pumped up
I'm gonna rap, I'm gonna snap, I'm gonna rule
I had the operation, nothing else left to do
Well, looky here, I've been hurt
I'm gonna hurt you

Now somebody's gonna be sorry
Like all you wankers and you slime
And all you right-wing pinheads
Who make screwing a big crime
You titty-twisted up my life
Then pissed on all my dreams
You made me hate myself
Now come on, shoot me, set me free

(He's a Huboon, baby, his deal is all fudged up)

Well, I'm a Huboon, baby
I'll grow up to be the President
I'm all excited
I'm really tweaked, I'm really freaked, I'm really bent
Big-town papas better hurry, hide your little girls
I'll drop their bones, I'll sniff 'em out 'round the world

Huboon Stomp

A song about the Covid-19 pandemic.

---
When the world emerges from the pause
What will the neighbors say?
Will they still be wary
Or will they give you the time of day?

Will we scream "Let me go back
where solitude is law"?
Or rejoice "thank God the world
emerges from the pause"?

When the world emerges from the pause
What will we hear and see?
Will flags of gules and sable
Fly where stars and stripes could be?

Could we find ourselves without
An overarching crown?
Or will soldiers marching
Put dissenting voices down?

When the world emerges from the pause
It will not be the same
Unprecedented times call for
Unprecedented change

We must cooperate to survive
Take matters in our hands because
It's up to us when the world
Emerges from the pause

When The World Emerges

A cover of a song written and arranged by Peter Pepper and Benny Normal. You can't even use the band's name anymore but it's in the tags.

The original is better so show some support for the OG: https://soundcloud.com/peterpepper

I Don't Think You Really Mean It

Buy the song so I can fund my Dr Pepper habit: https://zhir.bandcamp.com/track/where-did-he-go

It's been 20 years since I last saw his face
He never said if he'd be back again
He got into his Mazda burning rubber down the road
And left me his apartment until then

Never have I held a fort down
Such a long time before

Where did he go
Where did he go
He lost his mind in San Diego
Where did he go...?

I got a letter from him seven years ago
He said it's been a while indeed
That Mazda hit three hundred thousand yesterday
Don't try to track me down, said he

I still hope to see him 
Come on back through his old door

Across a continent
To the ends of the earth, and back again
Left all he knew behind
If life's a bleak dead end
What's a man supposed to do?

Where Did He Go?

A song for the 2020 election. Yeah, Trump got stumped, but we're nowhere near done. The Biden presidency is going to be a pathetic and helpless one, not nearly as deliberately cruel as Trump's but certainly just as harmful.

The goal of any true revolutionary should not be to take the throne, but destroy it.

Download the song here: https://zhir.bandcamp.com/track/dont-pretend-everythings-fine

Don't pretend that everything's fine
Don't pretend that everything's fine
You can be happy that he won, I don't mind
Just don't pretend that everything's fine

He said so and he made it plain
Nothing will fundamentally change
If you think that he's our friend, you're deranged
He said so and he made it plain

I know it may be hard to hear
But we're not out of the woods by a mile
We'd all like to rest, but here in the west
Each outcome presents another trial

We've still got a ways to go
The liberals won't admit it though
They'll stick their heads in the sand insisting that no
We haven't got a ways to go

The planet still may fucking die
The human race may still burn alive
Until the oil barons for welfare must apply
The planet still may fucking die

I know it may be hard to hear
But we're not out of the woods by a mile
We'd all like to rest, but here in the west
Each outcome presents another trial

Don't pretend that everything's fine
Don't pretend that everything's fine
You can be happy that he won, I don't mind
Just don't pretend that everything's fine

Don't Pretend Everything's Fine

From an upcoming LP. Released early because Twitter won't shut the fuck up about stupid shit.

Painfully Online

Another Retard-O-Bot cover, this time a deep cut from the 2003 album Scatter Brained. Done in the style of the Screamers (electric piano + fuzz and analog synthesizers)

Written & Arranged by Johnny Robot and Peter Pepper. Second verse modified thusly:

you pull me over so you can show
how tough you are 
in your bad boy cop car
you're a rebel from high school
what better way to rebel
then to carry out the will
of the masters you once hated
you stupid fuck, the irony
cannot be overstated
