about

“Commercial Break” started off as an interlude written for a project I had conceptualized around 2007-08 titled Me and the Drummer. It and “Highton View Terrace” were written for the unfinished album, which was a concept fanfic-album about TK and Kari from Digimon learning to culture jam in the midst of Tokyo during one sweltering summer day. The relatively jumbled mess of “Commercial Break” was intended to be a mimicry of searching the radio for a decent station, only to be bombarded with stupid praise, stupid pundits, and stupid commercials. However, given that I had absolutely no skill writing lyrics at the time of the song’s writing, they primarily consisted of me copying moves from Phil Jamieson’s similar writing style.

lyrics

I don’t feel it when Mr. Kite makes a horse dance
Did John Lennon trip on acid? Hell yeah!
Too much squash is not an acquired tase
Oh, Styx! Melt that ice cube!

Is he in other projects than NWA?
NWA is a Grammy winner!
Please save us from “Are We Done Yet?”
You blew your education man; now you will die!

Endangered species taste so good, but we don’t like it!
On the commercial break, you’ll be no hyper!
Run away to the lighthouse and drink some acid!
Man, that’s one good energy drink!

The rappers love to sample Styx and they yell “No!”
“Kilroy Was Here” is one stupid album!
My girlfriend cut that coke!
It tastes like sugar – it is sugar!

I’m all outta ideas.

So you think you can dance? Then what about THIS?!
