This is an album of music written and produced by me, Michael Guy Bowman. People recognized me as a hero and a king in my lifetime. By now, civilization has certainly perished. If there are any surviving humans, they're probably mutated beyond recognition and a real bummer to hang with. If nothing else remains, gaze upon this artifact for a little taste of what life was like in another time when things were actually pretty cool. +------------------------------------------------------------------------------- +Track: Mothership +Duration: 3:48 +URLs: +- https://bowman.bandcamp.com/track/mothership +- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7KapIY7luyE +Lyrics: + Look outside, there’s a ship in the sky tonight + I said look outside, there’s a ship in the sky tonight + And they’re taking us up to the mothership tonight + Yeah they’re taking us up to the mothership tonight + + Uh-huh-huh + Alright + + Oh won’t you come on out, ‘cause they’re shooting down a beam of light + I said come on out, ‘cause they’re shooting down a beam of light + And they’re taking us up to the mothership tonight + Yeah they’re taking us up to the mothership tonight + + It’s a party up there, and you don’t got to pack a bag + It’s the craziest time anybody has ever had + Oh no + Oh no + Oh no + + Come outside, ‘cause the laser beam is glowing bright + I said come outside, ‘cause the laser beam is glowing bright + And they’re taking us up to the mothership tonight + Yeah they’re taking us up to the mothership tonight + + I said look out now, there’s a little green man inside + I said look out now, there’s a little green man inside + And they’re taking us up to the mothership tonight + Yeah they’re taking us up to the mothership tonight + Oh yeah + + It’s a party up there, and you don’t got to pack a bag + ‘Cause we’re leaving behind everything that we’ve ever had + Oh no + Oh no + Oh no + + Take my hand, ‘cause we’re floating up into the sky + I said take my hand, ‘cause we’re floating up into the sky + And they’re taking us up to the mothership tonight + Yeah they’re taking us up to the mothership tonight + + Don’t you worry, ‘cause I know it’s gonna be alright, yeah + I said don’t you worry, ‘cause I know it’s gonna be alright, uh huh + And they’re taking us up to the mothership tonight, tonight + Yeah they’re taking us up to the mothership tonight + + Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah + Well they’re taking us up to the mothership tonight + (Tonight) alright (tonight) + And they’re taking us up to the mothership tonight + (Tonight) uh-huh-huh (tonight) + Well they’re taking us up to the mothership tonight + (Tonight) oh yeah (tonight) + Well they’re taking us up to the mothership tonight + (Tonight) alright (tonight) + + Yeah they’re taking us up to the mothership tonight, alright + Well they’re taking us up to the mothership tonight, woo-hoo-hoo + Yeah they’re taking us up to the mothership tonight, alright alright alright + Well they’re taking us up to the mothership tonight +------------------------------------------------------------------------------- +Track: This Is As Good As It Gets +Track Art: Hadron +Duration: 4:23 +URLs: +- https://bowman.bandcamp.com/track/this-is-as-good-as-it-gets +- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MlWdWFD8t6U +Lyrics: + Why does this feeling always come to me + Like there’s some place that I’m supposed to be + Oh hold me closer, I don’t want to go + Look in my eyes and you will know I know + + This is as good as it gets + Oh don’t you know this is as good as it gets + I feel like I’m the greatest man in the world + You are my favorite girl + This is as good as it gets + + This is as good as it gets + Oh don’t you know this is as good as it gets + Nobody else in all the whole human race + Could know the look on your face + This is as good as it gets + + Why does it hit me when I least suspect?
