Overview
"Bootymaster" was Ryen Slegr's highschool nickname.[1] When Songs of Inaudible Trucks and Cars was re-released on Bandcamp in 2020, this song's demo noticeably had some overdubs removed. This was fixed when the album was once again remastered in 2025.
Audio
Tornado Recordings Version
In the original Tornado Recordings release of The Doubble Donkey Disc, this song had a considerable amount of changes compared to the Kung Fu Records remaster, including the intro not being in split channels, and the breakdown having multiple samples overlaying it, one of which was a slowed-down donkey squeal.[2]
Lyrics
Wesley Willis starts to break down
Feels the beat and hits the dance floor
I will listen to the radio
Still I can't hear you on the telephone
It's a shakedown so count from one to three
And shake your booty 'til the early dawn
You gotta be laid back, rock to obscurity
Then you will really find there's nothing wrong with me
Three months have passed
And no reception has left me searching for another one
And it's too bad that I was believing
That you could ever be more than deceiving
And when I listen to the radio
Now I'm not thinking things about you
And all the things you say that drive me crazy
Could not compare to the things you never say
Now is the end
I will call her a friend
I won't regret what I said (what I said)
When I become a man then I will surely see
That you were just a girl and you were wrong for me
If you would ever call I know that I'd be home
Because I'm waiting and I'm so alone
