This song came about as part of a game where each songwriter used 50% of the previous song to make a mostly new song. I used 50% of Axl's song, who in turn had used 50% of Tim's.
lyrics
Did you know Bigfoot runs a bar?
It's been his lifelong dream
Thinks it makes him popular
Bigfoot what were you thinking?
Bigfoot wears a good disguise
The hunters never know it's him
Shaves of half his facial hair
Says he's trying to grow a beard
There is a monster in the bar
It isn't the one we'd hoped for
There is a monster in the bar
It's the one we've always known
Tryhard always takes a booth
He doesn't like to be seen
He's hiding nearly all the time
Look what we've done to him
The exhibitionista arrive
They come here every night
Tryhard tries hard to catch their eye
But they just shrug him off
There is a monster in the bar
It isn't the one we'd hoped for
There is a monster in the bar
It's the one we've always known
We play murderer in the dark
And never catch the culprit
There is a monster in the bar
It picks us off
One by one by one by one by one
Bigfoot used to be a star
In all the magazines
Now he just runs his bar
And tries to fend off the limelight
