about

NOTES:
Recorded on KMX's analog (cassette) 4-track back in 2005, this actually predates the band, although the vocals were redone for this album. Some songs just sound "right" on cassette recordings, although I am kinda missing the studio songs ...

lyrics

LYRICS:
He's the Tuba Boy
The power's in his hands
With one toot on his horn
He spreads magic through the land
And lions purr and sharks meow and elves and gnomes stop fighting
And beavers dance and squirrels jump and all throughout the night sing --

Hopping through the forest
His tuba by his side
His knowledge of his music is his only guide
The creatures all come to him so they may sing and dance
When he takes out his tuba, they almost shit their pants

He's the Tuba Boy
The power's in his hands
With one toot on his horn
He spreads magic through the land

Then, coming up the path, it's the evil Lord Mumu
And he has a big surprise; he has a tuba too
Only he uses his tuba for evil and not for good
He wants to conquer the whole world, just like his tuba could

He's the Tuba Boy
The power's in his hands
With one toot on his horn
He spreads magic through the land
And lions purr and sharks meow and elves and gnomes stop fighting
And beavers dance and squirrels jump and all throughout the night sing

The boy stops in his path
And faces Lord Mumu
Then he takes out his tuba
And they have their sacred duel
Go!

(Spoken during solos)
Lord Mumu:
Is that all you got, Tuba Boy? Well that's not enough. Check this out!
Tuba Boy:
Oh yeah, Lord Mumu? You think you're pretty good? Well I got something else for ya. I got something right here.
Lord Mumu:
Hey, waitaminute, what are you doing? Wait a minute, you can't just shoot --
(Gunshots)

He's the Tuba Boy
The power's in his hands
With one toot on his horn
He spreads magic through the land
And lions purr and sharks meow and elves and gnomes stop fighting
And beavers dance and squirrels jump and all throughout the night sing --

Bumpity, bumpity, bumpity boing
Bumpity, bumpity, boing (Boing!)
Bumpity, bumpity, bumpity boing
Bump, bump, bump, bump boing (Boing!)
Bumpity, bumpity, bumpity boing
Bumpity, bumpity, boing (Boing!)
Bumpity, bumpity, bumpity boing
Bump, bump, bump, bump boing (Boing!)

about

The KMX Band Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

The KMX Band is the only Metal band in history to have a singer that almost always wears the same shirt. It is also the only band in the Philadelphia area in which a former drummer once urinated on the couch of another former drummer.
But perhaps more importantly, The KMX Band is the only Traditional Metal band in the world that will sing about robots, tigers, demons and chocolate.
