Super indie superfolk! Folk-pop, whatever who cares?
White Guys Jumping is the musical project of Cameron Clarke, of Mashpee, Massachusetts. WGJ started off as a joke and now it somehow is not. Oh well.

Story behind the song
About Jeff Mangum for the most part. Also a bit about Jeff Darnielle and Phil Elvrum.
Lyrics
I am the indie king Sometimes I talk instead of sing To keep my voice from cracking If you know what I mean I play my guitar on my phone Mumbling in monotone Recording this from my phone To my answering machine Sometimes I wish that I was More obscure than I am No more threads on the 'net About where I was last seen Been making tapes since '93 But since Pitchfork reviewed me I've had such popularity It's more than I can stand I'll have a mental breakdown But occasionally can be found Wandering around town But won't reform my band Sometimes I wish that I was More obscure than I am No more threads on the 'net About where I was last seen (x2) I am the indie king
