Hopefully a good one.
themselves!
'''Wow that sounds like quite the diversealbum! So what ties all those different-sounding songs together to form acohesive album?'''<br>
Caricature, baby. Every song is about
caricature.
'''Sounds interesting, baby. But didn’tAdam English already do an EP aboutcaricatures called Sketched Out?'''<br>Yep.…..
'''So what is the point of you doing one,too?'''<br>
HOW DARE YOU! … Um, well, this is a
VERY different-sounding album. Every
topics he already discussed. I promise!
Trust me!
'''I trust you, me. We trust us. What wereyour biggest influences and inspirationswhile working on these songs?'''<br>
Adam’s EP definitely got me inspired. It’s
really well produced and really catchy,
the bands and music I’ve listened to my
whole life.
'''What made you want to start workingon this album in the first place?'''<br>
I’ve always been into music just as much
as art, and I’ve played around with making
and realized I had more than enough for a
full album!
'''Shameless plug for your amazingYouTube channel under your name, EricGoodwin, by the way, Eric (Goodwin).Will you have any guests featured onthe album?'''<br>
Yep, I’m glad you asked! So far I’ve had
Mae Adao, Chris Chua and Sae Mee Yoon
help out, and Nate Kap and some others
will hopefully be featured as well!
'''How many songs should we expect?'''<br>
Somewhere in the 8-to-18 range.
'''That’s quite the strange and vaguerange!'''<br> Yeah, it’s pretty tough to know at this
point since so many songs are just in the
demo stage, and I have most of the final
Any expected release date at this point?
My goal is to have this album come out
before the ISCA con ISCAcon in November, if possible.
Lots left to do!
If I have to, it’s possible that I might split
the album into 2 EPs or just release one
what I prefer when I listen to music: a solid
album from start to finish.
'''I take it that you’re pretty much doingall the work on this album?'''<br>
Yessir! The production, songwriting,
recording, mixing, advertising, artwork,
good as I possibly can for my first outing in
the world of music!
'''Anything else you’ve learned during allof this so far?'''<br>
From recently taking improv comedy
classes, I’ve learned quite a bit about acting
also feel like I’m reinventing myself and
starting over. Pretty deep, huh?
'''Sure. Any other goals, hopes or expectationsfor this album?'''<br>
I really hope it doesn’t suck! I hope it inspires
caricature artists of all levels of skill
tomfoolery when it hopefully comes out
in a couple of months :)

==''Don't Draww Ma Famlee Sillee!'' Lyrics==
'''VERSE 1'''<br>
We went to the fair,
the local county fair,
like my lovely family loves
to do every year.
Brought the Ma and Pa
and 3 daughters and a son
and my baby mama
named Mary Claire.
We’ve petted the goats (baa)
and we’ve taunted the cows (moo)
every time they come to town.
Bought that fried Koolaid-on-a-stick.
(yummy!)
We’ve stuffed our greedy mouths.
Yessirreebob, we’re from the south!
We do our savior Jesus proud.
Here comes my weekly heart attack!
Gettin’ sick of this kettle corn,
we’re lookin’ for somethin’ new.
These fudge-covered deep-fried chicken fries
are makin’ me wanna spew! (bluugh)
We’ve rid the rides since we were 5;
they all just feel the same.
We’ve been to every country concert
and beated all the games.
Well as we was walkin’ along
we came to a cartoon stand. (wow!)
I said, “Honey Ham, Baby Sugar,
wouldn’t it be grand (yes ma’am)
to get y’all of us drew?
Which artist is better here, him or you?”
(or you?)
This photo will surely show the world
without doubt that I’m the man!
'''CHORUS'''<br>
O pleez dont draww ma famlee sillee!
Yes wee look lik sum tuff hil Billees
With arr won rottet tooth,
Butt dond sho us tha trooth
Cuz u cood end up hurten are feelins.
O pleas dawn hert.... owr feellens.
'''VERSE 2'''<br>
We all sat down, all 8 of us,
on that one small plastic chair.
“Don’t draw all my sweat and gravy stains,
and why do u gotta stare??
My fat baby is beauty-full,
so don’t make her quite so fat.
Make sure you draw my shotgun,
and don’t leave out my cowboy hat!
My girls is pretty and my son are strong,
just in case you couldn’t tell, (yessir)
so when you draw my family
you better draw us well. (yessir)
I bet that we’re the best customers
that y’all have ever seed. (yessir)
Don’t mind my lil princessesthey
got nervous and they peed!
(bloop bloop bloop)
Y’all sure are talentedyou
got Gawd’s gift in your hand.
I sure wish I could draw a stick,
but it wasn’t in Gawd’s plan.
Yer so lucky; you don’t hafta work.
Art just ain’t in my blood.
I couldn’t draw a straight line
with a straight stick stuck in the mud.
(heehaw)
Make sure you sign the picture just in case
one day you get famous. (yessir)
If that’s the case, we’ll sell it on ebay.
Hell, can you really blame us? (no sir)
Alrite now, artist, hurry up! I hope yer finally finished! (yessir) Although yer sketchin’ at
Gawd’s speed, my patience has diminished!
'''CHORUS'''
'''VERSE3'''<br>
“Ready to see?” the artist said,
and his face was full of glee.
“Yer darn tootin,” my baby said.
“You better’ve drewed me purdy.”
The artist ripped the paper off
and all was soon revealed.
My lil piglets gasped in shock, (gasp)
but then they laughed and squealed!
(squee squee squee)
“Why I oughta kill ya sir
for making us look so dumb! (duh)
I oughta take all of yer markers
and stick ‘em up yer bum! (pop)
If it’s a fight you want
then it’s a fight you’ll get!
You really got my goat! (baa)
You think yer oh so clever
with that picture you done wrote!
How you gonna mess me up like that?
That ain’t me!
You coulda drawd me all nice-like
and with more than one teef!
My daughters Mary Ann, Mary Jane
and Anne Jane Claire are much cuter, and
Bobby Walter don’t have such ugly hick hair!”
“What about me?” my baby said.
“I look the worst of all. (you do!)
He gave me 40 hundred chins
and practerly made me bald!” (he did!)
“You made me ma and pa look badthey
look like they are dead! (they do!)
Where’s my shotgun?
You gonn’ get a bullet in the head!”
