Furry recording artist. Parodying songs and add a little furry fandom twists covering furry lifestyles. All material is G to PG13 ratings. Also may cover variou
My introduction to the art is cover and furry related. Hello my name is is I'm Halfshell Hero. I starting mocking songs since I can remember. They started being like like one to four liners. Like what a lot people do to Christmas related songs, I would throw liners out in the open and a few people got a laugh at them. Then I started doing liners to 80s style music and got more responsive from an audience. Then I took recording to an actual studio once in my home town and the quilaty was better than what I could do from home a recording.

Lyrics
About the time that Daddy left to fight the big war I saw my first pistol in the general store In the general store, when I was thirteen I thought it was the finest thing I ever had seen So l asked if I could have one someday when I grew up Mama dropped a dozen eggs, she really blew up She really blew up, and she didn't understand Mama said the pistol is the devil's right hand The devil's right hand, the devil's right hand Mama said the pistol is the devil's right hand My very first pistol was a cap and ball Colt It shoots as fast as lightnin' but it loaded mighty slow It loads mighty slow, and soon I found out It'll get you into trouble but it won't get you out So I went to trade my gun for a Colt 45 It's called a peacemaker but I never knew why I never knew why, I didn't understand Mama said the pistol is the devil's right hand The devil's right hand, the devil's right hand Mama said the pistol is the devil's right hand The devil's right hand, the devil's right hand Mama said the pistol is the devil's right hand Well I got into a card game in a company town I caught a miner cheating, I shot the kid down I shot the kid down, and I watched the man to fall He never touched his holster, never had a chance to draw My trial was in the morning and they kicked me out of bed Asked me how I pleaded, not guilty I said Not guilty I said, that you've got the wrong man Nothing touched that trigger but the devil's right hand The devil's right hand, the devil's right hand Mama said the pistol is the devil's right hand The devil's right hand, the devil's right hand Nothing touched that trigger but the devil's right hand Ooooohh, mama said the pistol is the devil's right hand
