This is a bit of a strange track (of course, to people who listen to American Idol or whatnot, all my tracks are probably strange). Originally, I had a short song and decided to use it as the "third input" in another song (the third input being the bridge or middle eight that breaks up the monotony of the verse and chorus repeating ad infinitum), something I've never done before. Then during the editing process, pretty much all of the main song disappeared, so you get this really weird short song. Musically, it's an oddball as well. I am drumming on a book, specifically Why You Like It: the Science & Culture Of Musical Taste by Nolan Gasser, which is no doubt interesting to read maybe, but does work great as a percussion instrument since it's a thick hardback book. Then the guitar part is played with a vintage toy Matchbox car. Fake bass on guitar completes the process. Lyrics are below (lyrics I ended up using anyway):
A pair of dentures.
A ratty knit hat.
A can of ginger ale.
A picture of a dead cat.
An old man's things.
A black cane.
A paperback about World War II.
Last month's newspapers.
An empty can of beef stew.
If you forget me, forget me fondly.
