Mr Bungle - Squeeze Me Macaroni bass tab
Squeeze Me Macaroni - Mr. Bungle
Tabbed by Dan Massicotte
This is a pretty hard, and fun, song to play. I suggest slapping wherever possible.
I tabbed it as accurately as possible. if you have any corections, or comments, don't
be afraid to e-mail me: lt_d4n@yahoo.com
Here we go!
Verse: "i wanna...."
|----------------|----------------|
|--------------1-|--------------3-| play 3 times
|----------1-2---|-5-5-x3-5-3-5---|
|-4-4-x2-4-------|----------------|
Then on 4th, play:
|----------------|---------------|
|--------------1-|---------------| That leads into the
|----------1-2---|-5-5-x3-53-----| "knick knack patty whack" part
|-4-4-x2-4-------|-----------4-2-|
"knick Knack Patty Whack....."
|------------------|-------------|------------------|------------|
|-----0-1-0-1--1-0-|-------1-2-3-|-----0-1-0-1--1-0-|------------|
|------------------|-------------|------------------|------x-1-1-|
|-1----------------|-4--1--------|-1----------------|-4-4--------|
Repeat 2 times, then:
"i was givin head.." "on the spread of my bead"
|---| |------------| |-3-x--3-4----|
|---| hold 1 bar |------------| 4 times |----5--------|
|---| |------------| |----------3--|
|-1-| |-0--3-3-----| |-------------|
"French kissing..."
|----------| |-4-|
|----------| |---| pop that note hard
|------1^2-|play 3 times |---|
|-3-3------| |---|
|------------------------|
|------0------2---1------| slap this part
|---------------------4--| 3 times.
|-3-3-----x-x---x---x----|
On the 4th time do this:
|--------------------|
|------0-------2-1---|
|------------------4-|
|-3-3-----x-x--------|
play this 3 more times
|------------------------|
|-----0-------2---1------|
|---------------------4--|
|-3-3----x-x----x---x----|
then:
|--------------|
|-2-1----2-1---| Trevor might be doing power chords here
|-----4------4-| to make it sound heavier, but i think
|--------------| its just guitar.
Now repeat it all!
(different lyrics though)
Weird part. Half time
|-----------------------------------------------------|
|-----5------5------5-----5-----------------------1-2-|
|--------------------------------2-4---------2-4------|
|-3-3----3-3----3-3---3-3----1-3--------1-3-----------|
|-------------------------------------|
|-----5------5------------------------| repeat 2 times
|---------------------7-7-7---6--4----|
|-3-3----3-3----3-3-------------------|
The next part is hard to tab. Your better off just
improvising in the key of A or E. I usally use A
and it doesnt sound too bad. Try it for yourself.
Now for the crazy ass part:
Gotta have pretty quick slapping hands for this one.
|-----------------------|
|------0--6--5--4----3--| play 2 times
|-----------------------|
|-3-3----x--x--x---x----|
Then play:
|--------------------|--------------------------|
|------0---3-55-x-3--|----------5------5------5-|
|--------------------|--------------------------|
|-3-3----x-----------|-0-0--3-3----3-3----3-3---|
Play that part 3 times and then:
|-----------------------|-2----2------------|--------------------|---|
|------0--6--5--4----3--|---1----1----------|--------------------|---|
|-----------------------|-----------1-2-3---|-2-3-4-----3-4-5----|---|
|-3-3----x--x--x---x----|-----------------0-|-------1----------2-|-4-|
Back to the beginning
|----------------|----------------|
|--------------1-|--------------3-| play 4 times
|----------1-2---|-5-5-x3-5-3-5---|
|-4-4-x2-4-------|----------------|
Then a little thing where i dont think bass plays, but just for fun
i do percussive notes in the rythym.
|-x----x------x-|
|---------------|
|---------------|
|--x-x---x-x----|
Then back to:
|------------------|-------------|------------------|------------|
|-----0-1-0-1--1-0-|-------1-2-3-|-----0-1-0-1--1-0-|------------|
|------------------|-------------|------------------|------x-1-1-|
|-1----------------|-4--1--------|-1----------------|-4-4--------|
And fade out on that.
Hope you had fun!
