MusicThe Best of Nicky Nick and the Nicky BunchAbout the songsI always appreciated songs much more when I knew a little background info on them so here's the scoop.ROBOGANGSTAS: This is a totally bad ass rap song. This song has one paragraph about the Robocop movie, followed by a paragraph where I long for more Robocop movies, followed by a paragraph where I pitch ideas for what the new movie could be like. Favorite line: "I ain't about the eastcoast westcoast dirtysouth nope I'm all about the Robocop coast..." Lyrics OH YEAH: This is my 70's song. I feel like putting on rainbow suspenders and bell bottoms and like one of those floppy train engineer hats on and strutting down the street when I hear this song. It's that powerful. I was inspired to write this song after reviewing the Big Lebowski and seeing the fake porno in the movie called log jammin'. GET ON THE SWORD WAGON: Get on the Sword Wagon is an old school rap about how much I fucking love swords. I RECALL TOTAL RECALL: This is a song about the first time I saw the movie "Total Recall" when I was 8, or more specifically, the most memorable scene from Total Recall. LOVE IS LIKE A FOURTH GRADE PIZZA PARTY: TOTALLY AWESOME This is my 80's hair band song. One of my favorite memories as a kid was during Elementary school when they'd roll in the TV and VCR and we'd watch a movie, usually something with Sinbad or talking puppies, and eat pizza. Therefore this song isn't so much a tribute to love as it is to pizza parties, specifically ones from 4th grade. Favorite line: You bring the cookies, I'll bring the forks, no forget that we'll just use our little hands! Eating lots of cupcakes and potato chips, baby hold on tight we're going to, pizzaland! Lyrics HAMBURGER PLAIN: This is another punk song. This is about Hamburgers without anything on them. It expresses my anger of people messing up my order and me not realizing it until I get home and am ready to chow down. Then I wish I could totaly take a giant viking battle axe and swing it around while I sang this song. Favorite line: I can't just scrape this stuff off with my knife! The flavors are soaked into the patty and the bun! Lyrics SEXUAL DINOSAUR INUENDO: This is my early 90's R&B song. I've always enjoyed obscure sexual inuendo that doesn't really make sense, and I've always enjoyed Dinosaurs. I was listening to a lot of Marvin Gaye, Gregory Abott, and Marvin Sease. I highly recommend Marvin Sease's "Candy Licker". He's not so much about innuendo as he is telling you exactly what disgusting freaky things he's gonna do. Very to the point. Favorite Line: Ooooh girl you know you look so fine, when we're making love it's like the Land Before Time..." Lyrics DOLPH LUNDGREN PARTY MIX: This is my late 80's German dance mix song. I'm pretty sure Dolph Lundgren isn't German, I think he's Austrian but you get the idea. The main keyboard part was inspired by the music from Megaman 2, the crashman level. It's not a copy bro, don't get it twisted, it just put me on the right path. The path to Dolph Lundgren. I chose him as the theme after I saw this movie where he drives a lamborghini through the mojave desert and helicopters are trying to blow him up. Favorite line: Und er ist wirklich wirklich wirklich way cool. (and he is really really really way cool) Lyrics CUPCAKES: This is a totally gnarly punk song about when I came back from the bathroom and someone ate my cupcake while I was gone, and I was pist. Turbo-Pissed. Favorite Line: WHO WANTS TO DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE OH YEAH! Lyrics 90210: I sing all the instruments for the 90210 song, including the sax solo in the middle. HUMP A BUMP BUMP: This is like a unity world peace beatnik 70's funk song about when the Aliens come to Earth. The theme would be "Can't we just get along?" Except replace "Get along" with "Hump in Jacuzzis" Sometimes the solution to your problem is right in front of you. Or in a jacuzzi. Favorite line: Stop all the space wars and battles...cause it's sexy time. Lyrics YIPPEE:This is a squeezebox accordion song. It's my favorite accordion song I've written. SCIENTISTS RUIN ALL MY FUN:This is a distorted ass punk song about how scientists always ruin my fun like about t-rex being a scavenger, bigfoot not being real. How they go out of their way to strip every last bit of mystery from the world. Favorite Line: T-REX WAS NO GOD DAMN SCAVENGER, UFO'S ARE IN YOUR FACE... Lyrics I LOVE STAR WARS:This is like an early 90's rock song to me. It's about how much I love star wars and it features a lightsaber solo in the middle. Favorite Line: ...Eating english muffin pizzas...and throwing eggs at camaros and running away... Lyrics BIKEThis is a accordion/uke/bass song. It's one of my favorites of all songs. NICKY'S NICK FIRST SONG: I love pizza. I recorded the vocals to this song while driving to community college with a 20 dollar voice recorder. In case you can't tell, I sang it from the heart. Favorite line: I LOVE MOTHERFUCKING PIZZA MOTHERFUCKING PIZZA I LOVE YOU! RULES FOR NEW ZOOLOGISTS:This is a super sweet punk song about some of the basic things you should know when you work at the zoo. Favorite Line: DON'T FUCK WITH THE LIONS, DON'T FUCK WITH THEM BRO! FULL HOUSE FISTICUFFS: This is a slower punk song. It's called Full House Fisticuffs because the beat makes me want to beat people up and it's also about Full House. I just sat down and wrote down all of the parts of episodes I could remember and jammed them onto this track. It doesn't rhyme, but if you ever have to meet someone behind the park to fight and need to get pumped up, and also want to remenese about Full House at the same time, then this is the song for you. Favorite Line: FULL HOUSE IS A FUCKING WAY OF LIFE! FULL HOUSE IS MY WAY OF LIFE! FULL HOUSE IS THE ONLY WAY TO LIVE! AND I LIVE THAT WAY EVERY DAY! Lyrics THREE NINJAS: This is my Three Ninjas punk rock song. I actually wrote this song for my old band, Super Mega Lucha Tron, but took it with me after we broke up. It's three ninjas 2, 3, and 4 summarized with street fighter noises thrown in for good measure. It used to be much longer and more descriptive but I streamlined it. Favorite line: Go to Hawaii beach ninja tournament but it's a trap...KICK MORE ASSES! INTERVIEW WITH NICKY NICK:This was an interview I did. You should check it out. SEGALS WORDS OF WISDOM: Steven Segal is a modern day philosopher, and by "modern day" I mean 1980's, and by "philosopher" I mean total ass kicking machine. This is a collection of lines from the movies over a beat and bass line I wrote. Favorite Segal Line: Hey you wouldn't happen to be the guy who threw a puppy out the window last week? (2 seconds later he kicks the guy in the balls which you hear at the end of the song, along with Seagulls.) LATIN HARPSICHORD LASER BEAM FIGHT: Schnauzers. I used to make these laser sounds and scare the crap out of my schnauzer. Also I love harpsichord. I used one of the built in beats from a casio keyboard which was a latin beat. Hence, Latin Harpsichord Laser Beam Fight. PERFECT STRANGERS WAS OK: This is another Punk song. It's about how the show Perfect Strangers was alright. It also references a true event, when my 4th grade teacher, Mrs. Chucasian, who was Armenian, played an extra on that show and came back and told us about it and how cousin larry was a total Douche La-Rouche. Favorite Line:It was kind of funny sometimes...other times...not so much. Sometimes I'd watch the whole episode sometimes I'd change the channel! Lyrics ROCIO UKE 2:This is one of my Ukulele songs. I wrote this song for my wife. EXPRESSWAY TO THE UNSAFE AREA:This is my vaguely ambigous song about winning some sort of race, possibly the race of life, or a space race, or just metaphor on top of metaphor. It's about being the best. It was my favorite song to write because it could make absolutely no sense and still acheive it's goals. Kenny Loggins eat your heart out. Favorite Line: You're on fire, you're cool as ice! Time is up, let's roll the dice...on the expressway!! Lyrics LULLABYE: This is another ukulele song. I started with plucking the open strings and it turned into this. MPO This is an instrumental rock song. I thought I'd experiment with having one part just repeat while the other instruments played around it. I'M STARVING:This is a rock/pop punk song. It's called "I'm starving" because initally it had words like, "I'm so hungry I didn't eat anything, except for a pop-tart but that doesn't count..." and so on. Just about people who say they haven't had anything all day except cereal, a sandwhich, a couple of candy bars, etc. but those don't count somehow. I couldn't get the words right so I just left it without them. IMAGINE THIS:This is my creepy motivational slow song. It's directed to a lady feeling blue, and I'm trying to get her to imagine positive things to cheer her up like winning a race, getting into college, or making out with me in a hot tub (Warning:Contains Subliminal Creepiness) Favorite Line: Do you remember that part when...the T-Rex ate the lawyer on the toilet, and later on...velociraptors were opening doors..." Lyrics MACGYVER ACAPELLA:This is like the 90210 song, me humming the different instruments from the macgyver song and layering them. Sweetness. ANITA'S SONG: This is another Ukulele song. This one was written for my momma. DON'T TRUST THE CYBORGS:This is a weird early 80's indie style song about how you shouldn't trust the cyborgs. Except it's not because they'll kill you...it's because they'll do shit like run up your phone bill and fuck up your car when they borrow it, your mazda miata to be exact. Favorite Line:Dude I need to borrow the keys to your mazda miata to go to the library with some cyborg friends from church to study... Lyrics WELCOME!: This is a slow resorty piano song. It's me telling someone I'm going to kick their ass but in a gentle voice and using piano and metaphors like "Welcome to roundhouse kick city population your face" Favorite Line: Welcome to dropkickalopolis Lyrics CLOTHES SHOPPING:This is a punk song about how much I hate clothes shopping. I try to express my hatred in a way we can all relate to. Favorite Line: Clothes shoppings like when you're vacuuming the carpet and you have to reach down and pick up something from the floor. Lyrics HUMMER LIMOS MUST DIE:This is a slower punk song about how much I hate hummer limos. Favorite Line: I wish superman were here right now I'd buy him a beer we'd have some fun...then we'd go out on town and get real fucked up and throw all the hummer limmos right into the sun! Lyrics HOBOFONE:This is a punk type song. Just another instrumental, one of the first ones I wrote. BREAKING POINT IN THE TOYOTA TACOMA:For a while I was trying to record vocals in my car and mix them with the main track already recorded on computer (as seen in hummer limmos and Nicky Nick's first song.) I kept getting increasingly more frustrated as I drove to junior college everyday and couldn't get the vocals right so i finally just screamed out gibberish to vent. and boy did I vent... HOOTERS BLOWS:This is a slower rock song. I love boobs but hate hooters because it's full of waitresses who act like because they have boobs that they don't have to bring you refills or the check. So I wrote this song. Favorite Line: I don't want to be here, cause everyone has boners... Lyrics PIRATE ROCIO:This is one of the squeezebox/bass/ukulele/drums songs. My sister went to a pirate store in San Francisco and brought me a pirate tambourine. I was inspired to write a pirate song for my wife. ON THE ROAD:This is a rock/punk song about me getting mad at shitty drivers and the shitty things they do but without actually cursing. Favorite Line: When you merge on the freeway you drive til the merge lane ends! Then you jam between the cars and pretend that everything is great! Lyrics MEDIEVAL TIMES:This is another punk song from my old band that I took with me. Matt C. wrote the intro guitar. It's about a boy who wishes that he could just go back to medieval times because, well do you even have to ask? Favorite Line: ...and they wear those tops that push their boobies together! Medieval Times!... Lyrics ACCORDION FANCY DANCE:This is another accordion/ukulele/bass/drums song.
