I'm sorry for all of these rough recordings, I'll have some clean, nice sounding stuff available soon!!

Some of the imagery in this song is revolting and I love it. Sometimes I get bad feelings about people. My intuition is usually spot on

LYRICS

You think that your boyfriend's a keeper The one with the beautiful smile The fall you fell, it couldn't be steeper And so fast you didn't notice the bile

But I can sense ulterior motives I can tell them from a mile away That boy, you know, his ego is bloated But I'm guessing that's what's making you sway

(Swoon) Swoon by all means, but ready a helmet (Assume) The lives that we lead all have concrete floors And generally, I just lock all my doors

The girl who's a neighbourhood favourite (Watch your back) She's funny and a little bit shy (She's bound to attack) But I'd say that she's not to be trusted, oh And there's a thousand secrets whispering why

(What do they say?) See I can sense ulterior motives (She'll scare you away) I can smell them from a mile away Fair-weather, here, she says she's devoted But knife in hand she wants the lead to your play

I can smell you I can smell you

Like a body, blocked in the walls Stink peeling the paint You think you're covered, you scrubbed on all fours But I can tell you that you ain't This nose does not discriminate

These things Take Tine Steven Universe Fan Song. It is about Garnet and Pearl.

So the week of Sardonyx is over and the Crewniverse beat me to the punch with Garnet approaching Pearl about her recent actions (previous to the lying to form sardonyx. I couldn’t predict that)

I was gonna go all out and make it an awesome wall of sound but seeing as this song is now superfluous, I just did a quick one take demo, seeing as I HAD finished writing it…

Lyrics

Garnet: Old friend, I know you’re hurting You can’t pretend that this is working I can see it in your eyes, your smiles are masking cries And your voice breaks when your strength wavers.

I know that you’ve been trying To disagree; that would be lying But the thing that Steven needs is not the same as you or me Didn’t Rose love that earth is full of different flavours?

Ooooh I can see her in his face too Ooooh Maybe we should do like humans do; And take it a day at a time We’ve made it this far; I’m sure we’ll be just fine.

Pearl: Old friend, how do you do it? How do you pretend there’s nothing to it? I know you’re not alone, but out of everyone I’ve known You’re the only one who lives so freely

Both: You have seen as much as I have And we have been to limbo and back

Pearl: But Rose, she was my rock, now I’ve forgotten how to walk Without her absence in my steps

Ooooh I can see her in his face Ooooh And it makes me feel so out of place It makes me just want to go home But Rose is the only home I’ve ever known

Garnet: *spoken* I know it’s easy for you to say things that you don’t really mean when you feel this way. But can you honestly say that if you could bring Rose back, that you would give everything up that you have now?

Pearl: *spoken* I… I couldn’t… I… I wouldn’t!

Garnet: Doesn’t that boy have so much about him?

Pearl: It’s hard to believe he’s only half gem

Garnet: But ain’t it a shame that that’s the thing that makes us doubt him? When after all, he brought us closer To them (gems or humans idk it’s up to you) And that’s something not even Rose could do

Pearl: Yes I… I suppose that’s true…

*spoken* Garnet… What do I do now?

Garnet: Just take it easy And know that we’re on your side; These things take time

Pearl: Ooooh, you know, He has never felt her touch, But ooooh I have never known one love so much…

Garnet: And that is because of you. And me, and Greg, And Amethyst too And that’s what Steven has the power to do, the power to do

An extended cover of another awesome Over the Garden Wall song, The Highway Man! 

Lyrics:

I'll knock you out,

Drag you off the road,

Steal your shoes from off your feet,

The Highyway Man,

He's gotta make ends meet.

I could steal your cart,

Your house, face and name,

And dogs may bark

But wives will think I'm the same

But I'm the Highway Man

And I don't play that game.

I'm a simple soul,

With a simple goal:

Live another day.

I could be so much worse,

So heed my next verse,

And don't get in my way

Because I'll knock you out,

And drag you off the road,

Steal your shoes from off your feet,

I'm the Highway Man

And you can bet that I keep things neat.

I'm the Highway Man,
