This song is another one of those failed experiments and was intended as the b-side of "The S&L Song" posted previously. The sad fact of the matter is that I really like the music for this song especially when the synth comes in on the break/turnaround. I also thought the drums were quite nice, considering that's a TR-707 with a special flam technique I created in order to fatten the sounds. Problem was, the idiot lyricist had a misguided idea to write an angry political song with far too many words and no attention whatsoever to the singer's need to breathe occasionally. Furthermore the singer did a lousy job, couldn't articulate the torrent of words he was spewing or at times, even stay with the rhythm. Of course the 'two individuals' being blamed were of course moi. The master is dated 9/90.
The topic of the first verse is roadside litter, the second verse was about all the crooks looting the country in the S&L scandals while getting away scott-free and the last verse was about the ugly stuff we were preparing to do to the people of Iraq the first time, Bush Sr.'s war. Should anyone request, I most likely still have the lyrics in an old notebook and will post them. Jello Biafra I ain't.
How Stupid Are We?
