 haha! awesome. Cool phaser & drum break with it- A hair patchy, but this is funky cool & then some. I'm loving the vibrato in the one little voice that sticks out at the end of a few measures in there. 
So far, I've heard "Who let the"...
Very entertaining- great work.

Funny that you would write a song about the stuff you step in while walking through the woods. 
Seriously, though... reminded me of Zappa. 
Excellent track.
Dig it, baby!!

Fun track. I like the bass tone. There are some timing problems (I'm very finnicky about that) but for the most part, it totally fits the lose groove. I would say, if you can tighten it up a teeny bit, do it, but if not, it hardly detracts from it unless you're an edit-head like I am 
Good one. Now when was the last time I made a nonserious tune?

well yes scat can mean that, but it's always meant 'vocalized nonsense sounds' to me

Allow thou to point ow right at 3:40 you can hear with the slap bass the timing difference that Send's talkin bout...
There's a bit of a small delay in there right before the measure ends... And I believe there are other spots just like that one throughout; (before) that too, I'm just pointing out the one I landed on at the moment.
All in all though- for some reason it doesn't trouble me that much at all because it really does fit the funny & funkyness of the piece. 
Since I just found it right at 1:31 as well...
and here...
and there...

oh man - you're being too kind! Did I ever tell you that I chipped the tip of my shoulder off while stage diving at at RHCP show in 1987/88 - at the Fillmore in San Francisco. Slovak, the original guitarist was still alive and rockin.
Absurdist/Kylo - I opened the track and made several small adjustments to line the bassline and drums up a bit more. There were definately several hits in each of those sections that were off a bit. I just uploaded a new hifi version.

It's a good song gid but I must agree with sendy about the perc timing issue, it's pretty weird at times, especially in the begining.

nice!
Subtronik - you are right, so I just finished spending another hour working on the song, and it's the verse sections that were off. The bassline was a bit sloppy with a dragging feel, and the drums have a pushing feel to them - so between the two, the timing was indeed off. It should sound tighter now. Thanks for the feedback.
