about

On theFuMP.com , we sign up for our slots ahead of time. Every week, Devo Spice makes sure we're all ready. While in a goofy mood when both Ian and Kyle were in the queue, Devo typed "Ian, are you good? Kyle, are you Ian?" Ian's been talking about this being a song concept ever since! This is one of the 14 1/2 songs we recorded for February Album Writing month and will soon be released on our album "Headliners".

lyrics

Kyle, Are You Ian?
lyrics by Ian Bonds and Kyle A. Carrozza
Music by Kyle (and Ross Bagdasarian)

I: Folks always know me as Insane Ian
That weird little gamer, nerdy human bein'
I'm kinda funny looking with real big hair
And I'm recognizable by my buggy eye'd stare
I'm quick with a joke and to make you laugh
I'm ok a rapping but terrible at math
I can't really draw, never really could
Just because I can polka, doesn't mean I should
But one day I encountered a terrible obscenity
I had my own case of Mistaken Identity
I had a pic of me taken at a con
But the tag on Facebook got the name wrong
Now folks who do what I do all have goofy names
And because we like "Weird Al" our voices kinda sound the same
But the guy I was mistaken for has his own unique style
He lives in California and his name is TV's Kyle!

Chorus:
I: Kyle, Are You Ian? K: (Ian, Are You Kyle?)
I: Kyle, Are You Ian? K: (Ian, Are You Kyle?)
I: Is this Kyle I'm seein'? I know it's been a while
But Kyle, Are You Ian? K: (And Ian, Are You Kyle?)
K: Ian, Are You Kyle? I: (Kyle, Are You Ian?)
K: Ian, Are You Kyle? I: (Kyle, Are You Ian?)
K: Is it Ian I'm seeing, or some other human bein'?
But Ian are You Kyle? I: (And Kyle Are You Ian?)

K: I'm not saying that there's no similarity
between Ian and I, but there's plenty of disparities
I know that we're both dementia acts, 
but Ian does parodies and I would never do that
Ian is known to write video game reviews.
I just play them and I usually lose.
I'm really into Tezuka and Spirou et Fantasio
Possibly he'd like 'em, but I don't think Ian has heard of those
Ian's got a dog and I have two cats.
Ian is relatively thin and I am relatively fat.
Ian's more outgoing, not that I'm a wallflower
But in front of a mic, Ian commands the world's power
Ian is the world's biggest Presidents fan.
I mean, I like 'em too, but holy crap, man!
Ian wears shorts, I never do that.
He can actually rock a backwards hat!

Chorus

I: Now this little quandary has invaded my laundry
Kyle has all my shirts, I remember them fondly
K: I use them as rags to wash my dishes
Cause they fit kinda off by a few dozen inches
I: I'm suddenly drawing Kyle's webcomic now
K: And I'm on the East Coast, tho I don't know how
I: Could it be that we have finally switched places?
K: I am afraid that's what it looks like the case is.

K: Kyle, Are You Ian? I: (Ian, Are You Kyle?)
K: Kyle, Are You Ian? I: (Ian, Are You Kyle?)
K: Is this Kyle I'm seein'? I know it's been a while
But Kyle, Are You Ian? I: (And Ian, Are You Kyle?)
I: Ian, Are You Kyle? K: (Kyle, Are You Ian?)
I: Ian, Are You Kyle? K: (Kyle, Are You Ian?)
I: Is it Ian I'm seeing, or some other human bein'?
But Ian are You Kyle? K: (And Kyle Are You Ian?)
