	A comical filk parody of the Third Eye Blind song, "How's It Gonna Be" featuring Angel from the "Buffy, The Vampire Slayer" series and written before the events of the song took place. It's a very rough recording, but the Buffy and Angel fans love it.

	Story Behind the Song 1999, two years ago, Andrew and I were driving to the Texas Renaissance Festival. We were talking about how we needed some Halloween songs. We were listening to the radio when Third Eye Blind's song "How's It Gonna Be" came on the radio. "How's It Gonna Be" is the one pop song that features an autoharp in it. You can mostly hear it just at the very beginning of the song, but the fact that there is an autoharp kinda made it stand out for me. At this time, I was a major Buffy fan, and it was the season when Angel was about to be killed off. I had no prior knowledge, but was thinking about the storyline when I wrote this song. The lyrics changed quite a bit and it wasn't until 2001 before I finally finalized the song at the request of some major Buffy fans in Kansas City. But all of the events in the song were predicted by me and the prediction was accurate. Yes. I am very please with that fact. ;) Lyrics words by Marc Gunn and music Third Eye Blind I'm really unsure...if I'm a vampire Before I take a drink...I wonder should I be biting her When you kill my friends out in the pale moon light I wonder, am I a creature of the night How'm I gonna eat, when the sun rises this morning How'm I gonna eat, when your blood's sucked dry How'm I gonna eat, when my teeth grow long and pointy Are rats all I'll need when I'm hungary, how'm I gonna eat. Where you used to stab all the vampires backs ...They'd disappear into ash A fetish that I can't ignore ...Like wood stakes in your dresser drawers. And the hours that you spend working out and kick boxing Make me wish that...we were necking How'm I gonna eat, when Buffy no longer loves me How'm I gonna eat, when the writers kill me How'm I gonna eat, when the Goth scene's too depressing Will I be like Mr. T, in a spinoff series, how'm I gonna eat. pch How'm I gonna eat when Buffy's ratings finally fall How'm I gonna eat... mid Gonna get my own TV show They'll call it "Angel" named after me you know I gonna taste leading role success So they won't just think of me ...as the living dead, living dead How'm I gonna eat, when they typecast me How'm I gonna eat How'm I gonna eat KEY F verse/middle: F C Bb chorus: Gm C Gm Bb Gm C Gm Bb prechorus: Gm Bb F C
