Deep Inside/It happened again by spacefox_tghk

Summary
I wanted to write more songs, and had a thought about what kinda song I could easily write that had less of a directly political bent. I guess this was the thing that fell out. Unlike the other stuff I've done, it seems a bit more Sinatra than Will Wood so I've marked it such. Again, link if you sing it etc. etc.

Crossroad Country by spacefox_tghk
Fandoms: Will Wood and the Tapeworms (Band), Original Work

Summary
More angsty song lyrics/spoken word poetry from the POV of someone trying to ape will wood and maybe neo-folk at the same time. my attempt has thusfar been to make the songs as subtle as a sledgehammer; so far, I've been liking the results. hope y'all like them too.
if you end up setting to music/performing, let me know because I'd love to hear it turned into something real.

The World's Fair / The Bargain by spacefox_tghk
Fandoms: Will Wood and the Tapeworms (Band), Bo Burnham (Singer), Original Work

Summary
I had a thought about writing music in the tradition of Will Wood or Bo Burnham and this was my attempt, so I guess this is kind of a fanwork of them. Also feels a bit punkish to me, although perhaps not punk enough to call it such. Original lyrics without an accompaniment, I guess you could call it poetry but I did have a cadence that I was thinking about when writing. if I ever get back into music again, I might try to do a recording. If anybody does end up singing it, lmk because it would be cool to see how other people think it would be sung.
