about

This song is inspired by my largest Kickstarter donor, Bob Mathews, whose donation directly led to everything mentioned in the song happening, most importantly, fulfilling my promise to anyone who donated over $1,750.00 that I would mow their lawn. Bob donated $2,200.

lyrics

Because of Bob... I ate at Chili Jon's in Burbank for the first time in 11 years.
Because of Bob... I saw “Monsters University” with 40 of my fans and peers.
Because of Bob I found myself on the hook to throw a weekend-long party called LukeSkiCon,
And I spent a lovely Saturday in California catching rays while mowing his back lawn.

Because of Bob... I ran into Dino-Mike at Not A Burger Stand where we ate our lunches.
Because of Bob... I saw the NerdMelt open mic which had the funny jokes of Mr. Ron Funches.
Because of Bob I sang Karaoke with Kornflake, until the break of dawn,
And I spent a lovely Saturday in California catching rays while mowing his back lawn.

Because of Bob... I saw Wesley Willis art in the apartment of MC Lars.
Because of Bob... I went to Disneyland and rode that new ride based on Pixar's “Cars”.
Because of Bob I saw Goofy cutting a rug cheered on by Belle and Mulan,
And I spent a lovely Saturday in California catching rays while mowing his back lawn.

Because of Bob... Bill and Moonbeam sang the phrase “fist pork”, their Mad Lib was the source.
Because of Bob... I saw a gay robot skeleton, a late night douche, and a pantomime horse.
Because of Bob I was in the same room with Harrison Ford, but he never spoke of Indy or Han,
He just talked with Craig Ferguson about flying planes. And oh, I also mowed Bob's back lawn.

Because of Bob, I watched Game Grumps, and gained Engine Sentai Go-Onger knowledge. [Hen-shin!]
Because of Bob I learned more about how to animate from TV's Kyle in one day than 4 years in college.
Because of Bob, Devo Spice proved performing with a fire alarm blaring is really hard, [Devo: Are you serious?]
And I spent a lovely Saturday in California catching rays while mowing his back yard. Ha!

Because of Bob... I showed a crowd home movies of my Yankee Doodle Dandy tap dance.
Because of Bob... I got a free Chipotle meal and Lindsay Smith rocked the mic in a b-boy stance.
Because of Bob I got a MacBook that came with GarageBand on which I composed this song,
And I spent a lovely Saturday in California catching rays while mowing his back lawn.

Bob, Bob Bob Bob, Bob Bob Bob. Bob, BOB!!!
