Bug Spray
by Space Boyfriend
Tuukka Junnikkala
“It's rare to hear chiptune with vocals. This is an interesting little free release. You'll know very quickly whether this is for you or not. I MUCH prefer the latter half of this effort to the first so please keep that in mind when evaluating this album.”
Villaceque Jonathan

“Lyrical chiptune concept albums are hard to come by, and to me, Bug Spray sets the bar. It feels incredibly genuine and touching in theme and lyricism, and its instrumental composition manages to avoid flaunting its mastery of the format to the point where it takes a few listens for one to actually realize and appreciate how well-put-together it is, getting better with each consecutive listen. Bug Spray hits home in all the right places and should not be missed by anybody.”

Counting down until that moment arrives
Til the day the universe regains its once majestic brilliance.
Can't wait to dance among the stars once again
It's just been so long without a love to light these cosmos.
I know one day I'll be among them again
To be cast amongst the stars as the galactic love defender.
Don't you know that I'm so patiently waiting to be
Amidst a dance lit by a hypernova!
But till that time dawns again,
Won't you let me save this world?
Yes I know, that it's not my place, but please
Let me lend a hand.
I've been here protecting your planet
Since no one knows when.
I'll be your Space Boyfriend
But not till the stars shine again.
Counting down until that moment arrives
Til again, I can ascend with all the hope we've lost long ago.
Though a glittery horizon's above,
I must stay, remained alone till I fill this world with love.
It's been gone for many years.
But won't you allow me this?
Just once chance to take you beyond this world
just one more time?
I've been here protecting your planet
Since no one knows when.
I'll be your Space Boyfriend
But not till the stars shine again.
Counting down until my passion arrives.
Til the day her face illuminates the endless space inside me.
Even though I've laid the whole place to waste,
Certainly, I know I'll get my chance at my redemption.
Can we get it all back? - Track Name: Bug Spray
-
I want nothing more to than be with you
and protect you from the mutant bugs that creep you out!
Late at night, we'll walk together down the avenue.
(Yeah we will!)
I'll save you from the creepy things of the night!
On we'll go, with hands connected,
but what happens when our plans our rejected
by a giant spider, and a gross cockroach?
I'll stomp them down, because you're my love!
So don't feel scared, or insecure my dear, because I'm here with you!
I'm your bug spray, except I hope I don't smell quite as bad.
In this big world full of crawly terrible things,
I'll stand by your side! I love you!
I promise we'll make it home!
I promised your dad before dark!
I want nothing more to than be with you
and protect you from the mutant bugs that creep you out! - Track Name: Watermelon Party
-
Ooh, watermelon time!
(Kazoo time!)
Ooh, watermelon time!
Watermelon Party, Watermelon Party
Watermelon Party, Watermelon Party
Watermelon Party, Watermelon Party
Watermelon Party, Watermelon Party
Watermelon Party, Watermelon Party
Watermelon Party, Watermelon Party
Watermelon Party, Watermelon Party
Watermelon time!
Oh how the stars do shine off the reflection of the juice upon your face, so fine!
I cannot wait for I to get stuck to your face tonight
on this watermelon time!
Watermelon Party, Watermelon Party
Watermelon Party, Watermelon Party
Watermelon Party, Watermelon Party
Watermelon Party, Watermelon Party
Watermelon Party, Watermelon Party
Watermelon Party, Watermelon Party
Watermelon Party, Watermelon Party
Watermelon time! - Track Name: Honeydew
-
And when the party dies,
and the moons above the honeydew horizon rise,
I will not ever cry when I look upon your eyes
on this watermelon time~ - Track Name: Starry Sea
-
After a long day away from you, dear
I'm running to you like a fierce machine!
How's your day, what all have you been up to?
Catch me up on all of your routine.
Now stop right there my love, let us blow this scene.
Don't you know the cosmos stretches far and wide?
When I think upon the things we haven't done yet,
How can you even stand to stay inside?
Just grab your coat and hop into my spaceship
We'll go so fast they'll never see us leave this town!
Please come with me, there's things to do,
And I want to do them all with you!
Our galaxy's is oh, so vast,
And we've got tonight, let's make this last!
Now we are 80,000 lightyears away from home,
Away from everyone, and they'll never know
About the sights we've seen and the things we've done out here.
One thousand times, I'll still say come with me my dear, let's have some fun.
Through the universe, oh yes I hear it call to me, this starry sea.
After such a time we shared together,
I don't think I could have a better friend.
Though the feeling that I have tells me to go back
And continue into space, into the end.
Won't you come with me into the cosmos?
I want to really prove that it must end somewhere.
I know that you have things to do,
but I want to see it all with you.
This universe will keep us warm,
So let's find where everything was born.
Now we are 80,000 lightyears away from home,
Away from everyone, and they'll never know
About the sights we've seen and the things we've done out here.
One thousand times, I'll still say come with me my dear, let's have some fun.
And when I see this place, I know for sure that it's for me.
My starry sea.
When you grow up on Earth, your scope is finite.
It's when you step outside, that you begin to see.
I've tasted freedom out in space,
and I'll never want another place,
So ditch familiarity,
and come quell your curiosity.
Now I am 80,000 lightyears away from home,
Away from everyone, and they'll never know
about the sights I've seen and all the things I've done out here.
One thousand times I've stood right here,
But just this time, what is this fear?
This universe, oh how I've wanted it for me.
This starry sea. - Track Name: Surpass The Universe
-
Again, here I am, basking in the light of one more planet left behind.
One day I'll find where I can stay.
A place I can call my home.
Out here deep in the cosmos, searching for the end of space.
My heart is calling out to the distance to find a hopeful place.
Somewhere I can live in perfection, free of all the hurtful things.
But as for now, I'm trying so hard to forget it all.
Again, here I am, basking in the light of one more planet left behind.
One day I'll find where I can stay.
I'll do it all on my own.
Somewhere out in space there is a place calling my name
But- I-
Cannot help but think that there must be another way
Because I'm giving em my worst, out to surpass the universe
Insisting that I'll be just fine with no one else here by my side.
One thing after another, what won't make me discontent?
The air's too thin, some issue, why can't I just learn to circumvent?
Forever I've traveled this system, am I just asking too much?
Well as for now, it doesn't really even matter, cause-
Again, here I am, basking in the light of one more planet left behind.
One day I'll find where I can stay.
A place I can call my home. - Track Name: Ill Moonlight
-
I can't be here anymore.
(I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.)
The ill moonlight is shining down like it has never before.
And will you stay in this place?
(I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.)
If you aren't out of here with me, then I am going out alone.
There's something for me somewhere and I cannot let it go.
Though I don't know what it is, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know!
You were wrong.
Go back. - Track Name: Bug Spray (Reprise)
-
I wanted nothing more to than be with you.
Protecting you from everything that'd ever bring you down.
Late at night as I am walking down the avenue,
I think of what transpired between you and I.
So here I am, the vermin that you were afraid of.
I've sent you home before the sun had set upon our love.
Hopefully your father liked my punctuality.
But as for me, I'm floating far up above.
Off I go, my heart is empty
as the can of spray that swore to keep you happy
I'm the vile spider, I'm a centipede,
And worry not, I'll stomp myself down.
And I am scared, and insecure, my dear, because I still love you.
But your bug spray has backfired on you far too many times before.
In this big world, full of many terrible things,
I've become one more, my chance has passed the event horizon.
The star that was your trust has crossed beyond its breaking point.
Although the brightness of the flash is gone before it's course,
Maybe after time, out from the lasting nebula...
A light will shine once more, and I can be yours.
Until then, please rest well. I see that you've drifted away.
I know that you're tired, so yes, love, you can fall asleep.
