about

Aaron Spacemuseum Los Angeles, California

Spacemuseum's sound could be called "the results of a paternity suit between Elliott Smith and Elvis Costello."

This, however, would be a ridiculous description.

Track Name: Happy Song: 1st VERSE:
I'm so done with hearing you whine
you're so dumb to think I don't mind
I'm so through with hearing you complain
it's driving me insane

CHORUS:
Move on, nothing's wrong, just the feeling's gone
Move on, nothing's wrong, it's a happy song

2nd VERSE:
Bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch
that's all you do
Bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch
Bitch, I am through

CHORUS:
Move on, nothing's wrong, just the feeling's gone
Move on, nothing's wrong, it's a happy song

SOLO

CHORUS:
Move on, nothing's wrong, just the feeling's gone
Move on, nothing's wrong, it's a happy song
Track Name: One Night Standard: 1st VERSE:
Come home with me and baby you'll see
there's more to tonight than this tired bar scene
Come back to my place, get out of that dress
if you spend the night I will make you breakfast

CHORUS:
Whatever it takes baby
I will say it to you
Don't make me go home alone
Don't leave me blue

2nd VERSE:
It's getting late and we're getting lit
but your chubby friend keeps on giving me shit

CHORUS:
Whatever it takes baby
I will say it to you
Don't make me go home alone
Don't leave me blue

BRIDGE:
When you whisper in to my ear I can tell that I'm in luck
but when we get back to my place I can barely get it up

SOLO

3rd VERSE:
When morning comes and we finally wake up
and I see your face without your makeup
I see that it's me with something to hide
your face isn't great but I'm ugly inside

CHORUS:
Whatever it takes baby
I will say it to you
Don't make me go home alone
Don't leave me blue
Track Name: Let's Say I Don't: 1st VERSE:
Since the day that we met
love's been mixed with death threats
now the bickering has gotten so loud
marriages can be tricky, ours has gotten so sticky
we're gonna have to figure it out

1st CHORUS:
There's just nothing I can say to change your mind
nothing you can say will change mine
it's so pointless to sulk and pout

2nd VERSE:
When we went to counseling
we were finally announcing
everything we'd hidden deep down
but when we pulled in the driveway, it was your way or my way
and nothing had been figured out

2nd CHORUS:
Is there something I could say to change your mind,
or something you could say to change mine?
It's so pointless to sulk and pout
if we never figure anything out

BRIDGE:
Forget I do let's say I don't
things could get better but we know that they won't

3rd VERSE:
Of course there's remorse for our newfound divorce
but our decision left us little doubt
it's so funny to say but we're better this way
it's the one things that we've figured out
Track Name: Katie: 1st VERSE:
Every day, every day I tried
to get along with you, Katie
but you drove me nuts and now I'm done with you for good

CHORUS:
Oh, my Katie
you take me
past my breaking point–you're fucking crazy
Oh, my Katie
you make me
so insanely angry–you're fucking crazy

2nd VERSE:
You crushed my hat, shot my cat, lost a hundred dollar bill
I'd dated you for just one week and you'd nearly got me killed

CHORUS:
Oh, my Katie
you take me
past my breaking point–you're fucking crazy
Oh, my Katie
you make me
so insanely angry–you're fucking crazy

SOLO

BRIDGE:
But what can I do, I'm still in love with you
and it hurts me so to say it Kate but I must be fucking crazy too
we're crazy

last CHORUS:
Oh, my Katie
you make me
so insanely angry–you're fucking crazy
But oh, my Katie
if you take me
back for good this time
I swear I'll stop complaining
Track Name: Bigtime Loser: 1st VERSE:
The way I look
the things I say
the way I'll spend my day today
My stupid grin
my stupid friends
I'll lose them all anyway

CHORUS:
'cause I'm a bigtime loser
you don't need me hangin' round
A bigtime loser you, don't need me hangin' round
yeah, I'm a bigtime loser, you don't need me hangin' round

2nd VERSE:
My little mind
my little prick
the only thing that ain't thick
Don't try to care
don't take me in
I'll let you down in the end

CHORUS:
'cause I'm a bigtime loser
you don't need me hangin' round
a bigtime loser you, don't need me hangin' round
yeah, I'm a bigtime loser, you don't need me hangin' round

BRIDGE:
taking up space and going to waste
are written all over my face
I know what I am and I do what I can
but I'm just another losing case

I've lived it up, given up, been fed up, shriveled up, sticked it out, trickled down, been spit out figured out more than I care to be sharing about anyway

but what I'm here to say, is I hope you all go away

outro CHORUS:
'cause I'm a bigtime loser
you don't need me hangin' round
a bigtime loser you, don't need me hangin' round
yeah, I'm a bigtime loser, you don't need me hangin' round
