"I accept adverbs, I'm not sure if they accept me." Hey Mr. Zimmerman man, play a song for me. (Now where did that conga line at the end come from?)

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
I met you in the society pages in the help wanted section You wanted a man who could pay your bills and also give affection I started as a pauper but I ended as a prince And I've moved on but you've been looking back ever since You had a way of turning all my pleasures into pain You stood out there shivering like Aphrodite in the rain You acted like the queen mum drinking royal majesty Buttered scones with i can't believe it's not blasphemy maybe it's because i haven't been around the block enough for your liking maybe it's because i haven't given enough oil for you to keep striking maybe it's because you want me to be heard and not seen maybe it's because i'm the joker to your mighty queen maybe it's because i'm the only one who knows you well maybe it's because i'm the only one who's seen your hell You wanted to shield me from reality on the evening news But I didn't start off with enough innocence to lose I'm not a bad man but I'm not running for the Pope So I don't see the need for you to wash out my mouth with soap I always got so drunk off your food for thought Every phrase you said was like another shot With every conversation I get a little more queasy Ain't there some law that prohibits you to speak easy? maybe it's because i haven't been around the block enough for your liking maybe it's because i haven't given enough oil for you to keep striking maybe it's because you want me to be heard and not seen maybe it's because i'm the joker to your mighty queen maybe it's because i'm the only one who knows you well maybe it's because i'm the only one who's seen your hell
