Me, as a song

A few days ago, I asked people.. if they were a song, what would they sound like?
I promised to answer for myself. I intend to fulfill that promise.
I think, if I were a song, I'd sound like some amlgamation of TMBG and BnL.
It would definately have lyrics. That's where TMBG comes in. The lyrics would be geeky and riddled with references to in jokes or pop culture.
The music itself would be, on the surface, very simple. A strong base, four four time, probably a guitar, but as you listened to it, it would become obvious that the actual melody is more complex than it first seemed.
And, like Barenaked Ladies, the music would be, superficially cheery, happy, bouncy but there'd be hints, under the music, in the lyrics, that the music was actually vaguely disturbing. Violent imagery, adult themes, the like.
That, I think, would be me as a song.
I failed my sleep roll today. I got four hours, woke up about 2:30 and.. never got back to sleep.
Today should be... interesting.
