Happy 4 Score

[Moondog Wily]

I wrote a song last night and I am actually going to try and release it before EOD today! Wish me luck ;~)) It will be weak on production, but it is a song about this specific day, and being that I did not think of it till late last night, I have a very short window to try and bust it out!! Anyway, lyrics are below the possible artwork ideas. If any would like to vote on the artwork, that would be awesome! I will of course post the mp3 link here once completed!

<verse 1>
Good day to my people
The ones who are not sheeple
Who love the taste of freedom
We feel the THC run

Hello to my tokers
All the vipers and the rollers
Aloha to my bongers
Pack a bowl and smoke stronger

<chorus>
Happy four twenty
I hope you all got plenty
I pray you paid only pennies
And that it hit you intensely

Happy four twenty
To my brothers and my sisters
To the spleef King Misters
The medicine for lifes blisters

<verse 2>
Knock on the door of the future
Do we need some sutures
To close up the reducers
Who are all hate tutors

Stand one like a family
Breathe deep and live happily
Give all love till your last breath
Let me puff till I am death

<chorus>
Happy four twenty
I hope you all got plenty
I pray you paid only pennies
And that you toke it intensely

Happy four twenty
To my brothers and my sisters
To the spleef King Misters
And those medicine twisters

<bridge>
(sound of bong)
Oh man I think I gonna laugh
(sound of coughing)
Ha ha I just passed gas
(sound of lighting joint)
Puff give cause it help me to live
(sound of stoners laughing)
It's my sanity preservative

<chorus>
Happy four twenty
I hope you all got plenty
I pray you paid only pennies
And that it hit you intensely

Happy four twenty
To my brothers and my sisters
To the spleef King Misters
The medicine for lifes blisters

<verse 3>
Never let 'em take your stock
Never inhale to their clock
Never let 'em get on top
Of our choice to burn this crop

Never let 'em define you
Never let 'em confine you
Never bow to the masters
Who construct disasters

<chorus>
Happy four twenty
I hope you all got plenty
I pray you paid only pennies
And that it hit you intensely

Happy four twenty
To my brothers and my sisters
To the spleef King Misters
The medicine for lifes blisters​

I’ll bite. 5 - it best reflects the days well before “420” when I cared about such things. Plus they look happy. I quit when the herb moved one from happy to paranoid or paralyzed. You know, the KGB, the Arkansas Polio Weed, The Pot that Killed Bruce Lee. It was fun, but glad to be long done.

Thank you for the feedback kind sir! And I fully understand you being done with it!! I smoke way less than I used to, but still love this plant to pieces!!!

tough choice , all are cool ... What is from the Earth is of the greatest Worth

 

[Moondog Wily]

OK, got a "demo version" put together but no way I can complete it tonight for a full release. Too much to do ;~)) Looks like this one will have to wait for full release until 4/15 or so of next year ;~)) All good, very happy with what I got done in 24 hours! Let me know what you think (even though rough around all edges)!!

I won’t get to check it out till later today. I look forward to it. I’m real close to retirement. My current lifestyle won’t allow for the herb. If things were different, I might take it up again. On the other hand, I like the way things are for me. Oh, and day late, dollar short, I just now “got” 4 Score! Kinda brilliant actually.

You are the first to have noticed that tongue in cheek song title (with the word "score" having a second connotation related to getting a bag)! Congrats!! All good on the lifestyle stuff, totally understood!!! Thanks for responding ;~))

Lol, fun thread. Did you do the artwork as well?

Lol, fun thread. Did you do the artwork as well?

All images above are AI generated. I used various commands to come up with different pieces based on different artists styles (chosen style is Peter Max style). I then put my logo, song title and copyright info on the top of that art which took longer than generating the original artwork (finding the right font can be a real chore)! Thanks for all the feedback and kind words!

Releasing an "Official" version of this song today. It will be on all streaming services, etc. in the next week or so and is available for purchase at my bandcamp page (https://moondogwily.bandcamp.com). Here is some background ;~))

Last year, on 4/20, I wrote a song titled "Happy 4 Score". I thought about releasing it then, but did not do so formally as the timeframe was too much for me. Well, today, I am going to release it. Working on the video right now but wanted to post the audio, artwork and lyrics so that those so inclined (to listen to my drivel) could enjoy it on this "special" day! So here you go, those who breathe the flow, "Happy 4 Score" ;~))

Happy 4 Score

<Verse 1>
Happy day fine people
The ones who are not sheeple
Who love the taste of freedom
We feel the THC run

Hello to my tokers
All the vipers and the rollers
Aloha to my bongers
Pack a bowl and smoke stronger

<Chorus>
Happy four twenty
I hope you all got plenty
I pray you paid only pennies
And that it hit you intensely
Happy four twenty
To my brothers and my sisters
To the spleef King Misters
The medicine for lifes blisters

<Verse 2>
Knock on the door of the future
Do we need some sutures
To stitch up the reducers
Who are all hate tutors

Stand one like a family
Breathe deep and live happily
Give all your love till your last breath
Let me puff till I'm at death

<Chorus>
Happy four twenty
I hope you all got plenty
I pray you paid only pennies
And that you toke it intensely

Happy four twenty
To my brothers and my sisters
To the spleef King Misters
The mad medicine twisters

<Bridge>
Oh man I think I gonna laugh
Ha ha check out all that gas
Puff give cause it help me to live
It's my sanity preservative

And that you smoke it intensely

3 for me.,...

 

[Moondog Wily]

Well, I posted a pretty cool video for this song, but YouTube has put an age restriction on it, so you have to go to YT to watch it! I have appealed the decision, but not sure if it will be able to be shared. If they do not clear it in 72 hours (which is the time they say it will take for them to review) then I will post it on my server and put a link here! Nanny state in full effect ;~)) Here is the YT link if you want to check it out there (lot's of tasty AI images IMO)!!!

The visual content is smokin'!

Nice pun! And thanks, although I think there was WAY too much visual content in there (and rushed at that), but I got a bug up my arse that I had to use 420 images, and that was the best I could do to display them in 420 seconds (length of song)!!! Thanks for listening ;~))

I like whichever one YOU like the most. Go with the gut always my friend.

Thanks Victor! This post was originally from last year when I did a soft release of this song. The full release is now done and in the wild with completely different artwork. I could not find a way to remove the poll from this thread. Anyway, YT video of the final release is just a few posts back in this thread ;~))
