if there is any part of you that's like 'lmao why" may I remind you respectfully that the answer is always "I do what I like"

[@renisvibing]

As you should 😌

[@teresaa1010]

I will now use that answer anytime someone questions the angsty shit I write lmao. You're an inspiration

[@amandabartels7751]

Good singing voice 💚☯️🏵️🌈

agh "and we come home tired, and we come home mean" - it never ceases to amaze me how many comedy musical projects seem to exist solely to make me feel emotions of a decidedly non-comedic nature

[@cabk.4538]

Started out "okay this is kinda silly and goofy" finished off "is this seriously improv this is a perfect analysis of spider-man's civilian conflict"

[@beatricegurrobat7846]

All I could think about whenever he says "I could use a massage", is that he doesn't have anybody that got his back both literally and metaphorically. No one back home to ease the aching, and no one to stop it from coming back over and over.

[@shantoochee2038]

oh damn 😖

[@confettiveda2460]

The verse about busses really hits hard tho. It's like the trolley problem: "I have the power to make this situation the lesser of two bad outcomes but why am I dealing with this trolley engineer's mistake and who the heck is tying people to trolley tracks? It seems like a lot of things had to have gone wrong before we (and more importantly I) got to this point."

[@zigzaghyena]

If I a had a dollar for every song I've heard about a fictional character hitting their thirties this year, I'd have two dollars. Which might not seem like much but it's only February and this is the second time it's happened.

[@eos_aurora]

Who was the other lol

[@zigzaghyena]

@@eos_aurora Sonic The Hedgehog. The Chalkeaters made a song called "Crushing Thirties". It's actually a really great song.

[@suzannewdowik]

Really thought you were gonna say 30/90 was the other song but then I realized you said fictional character 😅

[@smittywerbenjagermanjensen9281]

i think that comment might have just made me your favorite person but its also 1 in the morning, i forgot to eat today and i woke up at 5 *yesterday* so theres that

[@Nightsmith_After_Dark]

@@zigzaghyena What about including non fictional

[@teresaa1010]

1:56 But honestly such a good line, Mr. Parker just wants a massage to forget about all the chaos that goes on in NY. *Someone just give this man a massage, he deserves it.*

[@ariyuril]

“With great power comes a great line of unending tasks.” Felt that in my bones.

[@irissagar1080]

Okay but why does the last minute of this song hit so hard wtf 😭

[@teabeenz6526]

God if only they’d gotten the chance to call it “Thwip Thwip Boom”

[@lyayeyo]

Omg if you never made this lyric video I would have never heard of this song. Off Book is just so amazing! The way they just improv every song? Will definitely check this ep later

[@eucerei372]

Bro thank u for introducing me to this- the whole thing goes hard but the last minute goes HARD

[@eos_aurora]

Spider man the musical is back on the menu boys

[@ellam5931]

the last part of the song is so genuinely good and makes me have such strong feelings about this zach reino-ified spiderman

[@kelso895]

If you haven’t read the poem “Maybe Dats Youwr Pwoblem Too” by Jim Hall, I highly recommend it because this Spider-Man and that Spider-Man have the same vibe. This makes me feel a lot of things at 28.

[@imbored4322]

I just discovered Off Book and I can't wait to listen to their podcast! They have such great minds and even greater songs. Thank the gods for the Game Changer Shorts, really. With that being said, the last line - "My god... really, really, really could use a massage" - hits so hard cuz... my guy just wants a massage. Not even a day-off. He's not asking for much compared to what he has done and sacrificed for. He just wants a massage - something so simple, yet even that couldn't be granted.

[@corenlavolpe6143]

This is so funny and sad at the same time. Amazing.

[@randomtraveler4149]

I STARTED LISTENING TO OFF BOOK RECENTLY CAN YOU READ MINDS-

[@graysonspider11]

Same

[@Zandalorscat]

This is one of my favorite Spider-Man interpretations of all time. The episode is so silly but also goes so hard, it's amazing. "We're slowly saving everyone's life but our own. There are problems out there and we solve and bring new problems home." ❤

[@mxscouty]

[T'Challa voice] Get this man a massage (for his back)

[@Good-GG]

First :) *edited:* God can feel his old-ness and tiredness through this song. Even if it’s made to be slightly humorous

[@NerdyMariaMania]

God this was fantastic, Zach does such a fantastic job in this song, it gets me every time.

[@lynncheng4094]

I’m addicted to this fucking song

[@EmptyFeet]

you are my target audience congratulations

[@lukebarrowes3567]

Dude I JUST listened to this episode of Off Book! It's always the coolest to find out your favorite creators love the same stuff you do

[@mrrd4444]

Toasty..... Oh my god....... Please

[@jlgirlxox]

well now I have to check this out

[@felidaefatalis]

I love this video and it honestly showed me a song that I didn't know I needed right now

[@Zillvr]

Another great song choice ToastyGlow! Thanks for sharing these wonderful snippets from things you enjoy. I would never have discovered them otherwise.

[@mistbored]

[@AlleyArtisticDTW]

Oh my god this is so perfectly catered to my new off book obsession 😭😭😭

[@kalecheeps]

art is real

[@nesCat11]

y'know honestly, the title made me think of Bo Burnham's turning 30 from INSIDE

[@nymmkirimoto6310]

I hate to be that guy but this really does make me feel emotions about working education in the pandemic ):

[@carianawaters6425]

Why did it take me until the END of the video to remember who off book is

[@MrTrottoro]

OH YEAH love how the artists I like are all connected

[@timosstein2300]

Slayy

[@hyenaedits3460]

Did not expect to relate to this so much at 25.

[@Nicole-pc2hc]

[@SaffronicSaffron]
