	"This is gonna be my attempt at an ironic, attitude-laden alternative rock tune, you know, with the super-compressed vocals and all that shit. So I'm gonna try to improvise some lyrics that are so deep..." --from the prologue

	Story Behind the Song A self-consciously hamfisted parody of '90s-style navel-gazing post-grunge alternative pop. All the lyrics are completely ad-libbed--the amazing thing is that about 80% actually fit. And as a bonus, I left in three tracks worth of studio chatter at the beginning. Well, I think it's funny, anyway. Instruments: frankenstrat thru Dod Classic Fuzz (both guitars), Peavey Milestone II (bass), back of my Samick acoustic guitar (drum). Lyrics I've got abs of steel Underneath all this flab But everybody never noticed Everything that's good about me I just want to tell Everybody I'm here Cause I never go outside my house And smell the fresh morning air Come on I'm nobody Inside this place It's like a little egg and I'm Stuck inside all this goo Fuckin' everybody just tries Makin' sure I know I'm different But I don't care, it just Gets me down and drives me in here Come on I spend time doing things That make me a better guy At least I think so It's just that depending on other's standards I'm just a hermit I'm just a nobody Nobody cares if I die-eee They would just keep going on I'm nobody Inside this place In this egg I just Wanna break out, put a fist through the wall Come on All this white is getting to me Shoulda painted the walls blue Beat on the walls Let me outta this fuckin' place
