Stupid

by Jordan D. White

Wax-work Theme S (Stupid) - 07-05-04

Another long gap between songs. I hate it, it's frustrating. I also don't know if it's going to get any better. We'll see. This one is another where I wrote the lyrics a long time before I recorded it. Originally, it was going to sound like The Cure, but then I somehow fell on the concept of the "Moistboyz vs. James Taylor" sound I ended up with. I was going to try to record with an electric guitar, but I waited too long and blew my chance, so I ended up putting my keyboard through a distorted amplifier for the verses, and normal for the choruses. I think it's cool.

The lyrics... I am not really so down on the site as one might think I am after hearing this. Sure, some of these things are true, and some are really criticisms I've gotten, but I am unphased. I think it's a funny song, especially the ending of verse two.

Lyrics:
This website sure is hard to navigate
The layout's ugly and the colorscheme is not so great
The sidebar doesn't load right in IE
There's lots of projects but you update them infrequently
The last Saint Red was about six months late
Book two will wrap up in a couple decades at this rate
The prose is sloppy and it's typo filled
Whoever edits this stuff should be taken out and killed

How dumb can you be?
The whole site seems pretty stupid to me

It hurts my feelings when you call me stupid
It makes me feel like you don't think I'm smart
But just because you say you're not into it
Why do you have to tear it all apart?
Just because it's stupid don't mean it's not art.

The art in these comics is unfinished and raw
You really should take the time to learn how to draw
One Night Stand was too long and repeats too much
Serials and Believe You Me seem way too rushed
This new one's confusing, and boring, and lame
All the people are ugly and all look the same
Where the whole mess is going I can hardly surmise
Well, I'll venture a guess - Everybody dies

How dumb can you be?
The whole site seems pretty stupid to me

It hurts my feelings when you call me stupid
It makes me feel like you don't think I'm smart
But just because you say you're not into it
Why do you have to be a poncy tart? Oh...
It hurts my feelings when you call me stupid
It makes me feel like you don't think I'm smart
But just because you say you're not into it
Why do you have to tear it all apart?
Just because it's stupid don't mean it's not art.
