If I Were A Bro

The College Humor kids wrote a hilarious parody of Beyonce’s “If I Were A Boy”, and I recorded the vocals for it. I’m not in the video, but that is my voice. Movie magic!

If I Were A Bro

Editted to add: The girl in the video, Sarah Schneider, wrote the parody (with Streeter Seidell, who plays her boyfriend in the video). They just needed someone to provide the voice — they weren’t casting the onscreen role — and they have been great about giving me credit for my work on it. Everyone’s pals here! Come see me in the College Humor Live show at the UCB NY on February 26th!

    Wait, wait, wait — “Music produced by Jesse Novak.” So you have some sort of connection to Olde English now. Any chance of an OE/Skinner collaboration some day? Because that would make me so happy.

    Why in the hell didn’t they have you acting as the lead? The girl in it is good, but you would have killed it. Great job on the vocals though.

    Discovered your website from this song.
    Now I kind of hate myself that I didn’t catch any of your shows in NY while I was visiting.

    If I were a bro
    If I turned out that way
    I’d roll off the couch in the morning
    and put on what I wore yesterday

    Buy a huge TV
    Just to watch Big Lebowski
    Oh my god what smells like tuna
    I should have had my Mom do laundry
    This is my only hoodie

    If I were a Bro
    I think I could understand
    Why somehow it makes you cooler
    To walk around like elephants

    Go to a party
    But I’d stand near the door
    Slammin brewhounds back with my bros
    Making fun of all the homos
    dancing with the girls on the floor

    If I were a bro
    I’d never party alone
    Always roll deep with the brothers
    And pregame ’til I’m fucked out my dome (my dome)

    If I were a bro
    I’d double up on polos
    Popping up both of my collars
    Cuz I know I’m looking baller
    Pop the puka on I’m ready to go

    Dude I’m psyched for spring break, we’re gonna rock Daytona
    Just a couple of fakes and there’ll be bitches on ya
    And in the pictures we’ll take you know, fingers UP!

    But you’re just a bro
    so you don’t understand
    why when you do not take a shower
    you only get a job from a hand

    You think it’s funny
    dancing close with your friends
    You are not really fooling me man
    cuz I know that you’ve got feelings
    For Mark and Chad and Nate and Leo

    But you’re just a bro

  14. GG says:

  15. Alan says:
