Reminds me of that article in The Onion: "Piano Store Clerk Goes On Rampage After 100th Chopstick-Playing Customer That Day."

On this site we have the 8 songs which make up the Crap Art album, where I wrote and recorded all 8 on March 31, 2004. The rules for the project and other examples can be found at the . However, I tried to make these songs as uncrappy as I could in the course of a day, and I think I succeeded for the most part.

Lyrics
You left me on March 16th I haven't slept a day since then I'm living on a diet Of notebook paper and pens and i can't tell the difference 'tween the tears and the rain salt mingles with water and to me it's all the same Don't wanna celebrate yours and my day Even though it's a week ago Friday And there's nowhere I wanna stay Don't wanna go out oh yeah no Don't wanna ever hear a piano Playing Chopsticks like you used to play You left me on March 16th And ever since I've had the blues Sick in pity when I should Be fancy free and footloose and i can't tell the difference 'tween your love and your hate i still think you're coming and that you are only late Don't wanna celebrate yours and my day Even though it's a week ago Friday And there's nowhere I wanna stay Don't wanna go out oh yeah no Don't wanna ever hear a piano Playing Chopsticks like you used to play It was the only thing that you knew You played it into the ground Everybody else thought that it blew But I always loved that sound They were the only notes that you plucked You plucked them time and again Everybody else thought that it sucked But I just loved hearing it then
