about

"A work of Coulton-ic genius. A thing of beauty." -Ken Denmead, author of GeekDad

"This is an artist to keep an eye on." -Brandon Sanderson, author of The Gathering Storm, Elantris, & The Mistborn Trilogy


With little more than an alternate-tuned acoustic guitar and a dog-eared copy of The Hobbit, Sci-Fi Songwriter John Anealio composes and performs geeky anthems for writers, librarians, lovers of Science Fiction, Best Buy customers, and robots. His music sounds like John Mayer, Weezer, and James Taylor playing Dungeons and Dragons together on their iPhones.


The lyrics to this song were co-written with fellow GeekDad Z. of www.hipsterplease.com

lyrics

Took some time and hacked the toaster
This steampunk oven timer's swell, what the hell?
Let's a build a LEGO rollercoaster
The boy can take it to show and tell. And all is well.

Chorus:
People say I'm a GeekDad
My co-workers think I'm a nerd
People say I'm a GeekDad
But my wife just thinks I'm absurd.

Our coffee maker seems redundant
There must be a better way, what you say?
Solar energy's abundant
Even if we fail we'll be okay with our new deathray.

Chorus

A working TARDIS in the basement
A Stargate portal on the lawn
Trans-dimensional displacement
helps the traffic move along.

Chorus
