about

A burst of inspiration, this one was conceived and recorded in less than a day. It was a good thing, too - I was really stuck on another song I was trying to get finished at the time, and working on this allowed me to blow off some steam. I laughed constantly while tracking this song, I hope you can tell.

lyrics

I know that you are tired
And I know that you're upset
There's no good news for you
Or anybody else

If you're thinking about
Throwing yourself off a really tall building, wait!

I urge you first to think twice
Maybe three or four times max
'Cause it's really going to hurt
When you hit the bottom (hit the bottom SPLAT)

On the long fall down
You'll have a lot of time to think to yourself...

This was a really, really, really bad idea
This was a really, really, really bad idea
I wish I'd had a moment
To think this one through
It was a really, really, really bad idea
