The 12th full length comedy music album by 'the great Luke Ski' features his Logan Award winning parody about struggling to lose weight, "Candybars". He also pays tribute to "The Mandalorian", the women of "Star Wars", "The Twilight Zone", "Supergirl", "The Flash", "Adventure Time", and greatest animated series in the history of Cartoon Network, "Mighty Magiswords" (on which Luke was a storyboard artist, writer, voice actor, and songwriter for 3 years).
As the title implies, many of the tracks on this album are very specifically about what has been going on in Luke's life during the 8-and-a-half years that have passed since his last album. The best of times (living the animation life, and making songs for the FuMP dot com and running the MarsCon Comedy Music Track) and the worst of times (trying to make a living in the gig economy, navigating being single again in the 2020s, and the skin-melting heat of southern California).
And as a continuation from his previous album "4th Grade Talent Show" there are 7 new "Dumb Parody Ideas" tracks for you to enjoy / be reviled by. In any case, as Paul Sabourin put it during the "Paul & Storm" concert at FuMPFeST 2016, it's all "Needlessly Meta".
Includes unlimited streaming of Needlessly Meta
via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics
Jace McClain: Had a night mare... I saw lizards in the sky,
Hulk played the ukelele and he didn't spoil it.
Steve Goodie: I love my job... but while on a bathroom break,
I scratched an itch, and dropped my phone right in the toilet.
Marc Gunn: And the demons... in your bed are really Reavers,
so we're sailing fast with the Firefly aglow.
Luke Ski: This fake adult wrote... “When You Wish Upon A Death Star”.
Wish I had Vader sing to us [Vader:] “Let it goooo!”
Everybody: But we did post five hundred files,
Then we did post five hundred more,
Just to be the site to post one thousand FuMPs
so you'll laugh 'till you're sore!
Jared Ringold: Watch me scrollin'... scrollin', scrollin' down the screen.
Get my geek on with leet Word skills I'm able.
Austin Aeschliman: Edward Norton... gave me a goldfish for Christmas,
which is fine, ‘cause Santa Claus is too unstable.
Dr. Milo T. Pinkerton III: Built a Think Tank... just to go to Middle Earth,
because they need me, and I couldn't take an airship!
Dr. Milo R. Pinkerton I: That’s *my* airship!
Dr. Milo T. Pinkerton III: SILENCE!
ShoEboX: Though the bunny... is cute eating up a flower,
I'm still fueled by angst, 'cause I know MATH IS BULL-[bleep!]
How does that rhyme?
Robert Lund: I'm trying to pass a kidney stone,
while I eat prunes with a dash of salt.
Tony Goldmark: Racoons burned down my house. Though I'm not dead,
it's all everyone else's fault!
Ookla the Mok: [Rand:] Mwahahaha! [Adam:] Mwahahaha!
[Rand:] Mwahahaha! [Adam:] Mwahahaha!
[Yoda:] Go to bed, you must! [Bizarro:] Bizarro answers no!
[Yoda:] So, yes?
TV's Kyle: Can I get a 'Booyah'? (Booyah!) Can I get a 'Booyah'? (Booyah!)
Strictly speaking, I like pie, so GO GO GOOO!
Lindsay Smith: I'm wigglin' it! I'm wigglin' it! Watch me wiggle it!
TV's Kyle: Nooo. No, it's too-, actually, we can afford it now!
Mikey Mason: Last day at work... told them off 'cause I was hangry,
then played D&D, the best game ever seen!
Dino-Mike: To fight the system... I used the Urban Dictionary
to write a hymn for sin, but was told 'Don't be obscene'.
Phil Johnson: Dodged a bullet... from Rudolph the Blood-Soaked Reindeer
who soon diced up Santa's elves all into cubes.
Seamonkey: I'm stressin' out so... Oh won't you please show me your cans?
See those Natural E's, fresh and devoid of lubes.
Tom Smith: Man, you’ve gotta quit freaking out over boobs.
Seamonkey: Whatever...
Emi Briet: Eat! Sleep! FuMP! Repeat!
Carrie Dahlby: And I thought pregnancy was strange,
but rejoice! It's almost 'parent time'!
Bonecage: Gonna go to Grandma's house for soup, beans, and
cornbread! Man, that’d be sublime!
Devo Spice: (Who is the Doctor?) I am the Doctor!
(Who is the Doctor?) I am the Doctor!
You can paywutchyalike when you visit my snack bar!
Power Salad: Corned Beef & Cabbage! (Corned Beef & Cabbage!)
Corned Beef & Cabbage! (Corned Beef & Cabbage!)
On an Amazon drone, or in my driver-less car!
Carla Ulbrich: Chocolate Pepper! (Cherry Pepper!) Hacking Pepper! (Fracking Pepper!)
From cheek to cheek, if I have a butt at all!
Insane Ian: Benedict Cumberbatch! (Butterball Crumplezone!)
Benedict Cumberbatch! (Blueberry Captain-Crunch!)
Wanna be internet famous? Then let's get silly, y'all! EVERYBODY!
Everybody: But we did post five hundred files,
Then we did post five hundred more,
Just to be the site to post one thousand FuMPs
so you'll laugh 'till you're so-o-ooore!
Tile Guy: Okaaaay!
Insane Ian: I’m sore.
