Bad Sneaky Weeds and Update on My Art (What Happened on Saturday)

Jul 28, 2013 00:59

Work went off to a bit of a crappy start when opening up shop, but at least I saw that one of my strawberry plants has a new blossom on it!

I had to put some muscle into getting some grassy weeds away from my strawberry plants, and after that I recorded that video on my way to step out for a few to go buy my big Brisk juice drink. As I was walking over there, I just happened to sing some of the COPS theme but instead of "bad boys, bad boys" it was "bad weeds, bad weeds". I thought about them as the evil mastermind plants that were maybe trying to dominate over everything in their way.

So I decided to write a silly rap song about it, and did this following video shortly after I finished writing the lyrics:

Chorus 1: Bad weeds, bad weeds!
What chu gonna do?
What chu gonna do when they come for you?
Bad weeds, bad weeds!
What chu gonna do?
They grow in the plants and they fo-ol you.

Verse 1: We growin' in the grass
Growin' in the pots
When you pull us out
You pull with all that you got!
But it isn't enough
'Cause we're so tough!
We steal genes from our rivals
To strengthen our survival!

Then we sprout up tall.
You won't even know it!
We are the masterminds.
See us all overgrowin'?
You think you know us well?
To be honest, you don't.
We're rising up from behind
Yeah, evolution's so divine!

Chorus 2: Bad weeds, bad weeds!
What chu gonna do?
What chu gonna do when they come for you?
Bad weeds, bad weeds!
Destroyin' your plants
Taking up residence to look like them

Verse 2: We can look like grass
We can look like your lilies
We pull off excellent disguises, you homo sapien sillies!
Yeah, keep sprinkling that water
Deceiving's the way to be!
Now give us plenty more
We're always so thristy!

Our roots are digging deep
Further into our competition
One day we'll rule the plant world
This is our ultimate mission!
Sooner or later we'll be looking like your mint
Absorb in the scent
Do it so fast before you get the hint!

Call us all the names you want
Call us conniving leafy bastards
It won't make any difference!
We are the plant assassin masters!!

(Chorus 1)

What chu gonna do?
What chu gonna do?
What chu gonna do?
What chu gonna do?

(Chorus 2, then Chorus 1 again)

Yeaaaah. I'm such a goof sometimes. LOL!

So I fixed lunch, and then sketched some more. I drew Mao successfully the way I wanted (he'd be the animated cat in my icon), so now all I have to do is finish the background! It's been four days since I started on this mental snapshot.

Still so far so good! I put in three of my handful of heart shaped erasers into my box, in case I'm going to end up sketching, erasing, nit-picking, sketching, and then erasing again. They work very good.

I made sure to give those weeds the punishment they deserved before it was time to close up and go home.

My dad's into plants also, and he's where I got my green thumb lovin' from. I sang the rap for it, and he enjoyed it. :) Mom thought it was cute. :P
