about

Dedicated to all my musician friends who've had to put up with their share of drunk, belligerent people critiquing their song choices, offering useless advice, and just generally being annoying as hell. This song is for YOU!

lyrics

Hey you, sitting at the bar
Voicing your displeasure
Drowning out my old guitar
I’m sorry - Thought this song was great but guess I’m wrong

Hey you, have another beer
It can only make you cooler
I’m so glad that you are here
To tell me - you think I should play a better song

So here’s a better song - I hope that you approve
It’s catchy and original And simple just like you
Feel free to sing along, and tell me how it sucks
When I am through
Then demand that I play Freebird
While you’re screaming out the F-word
Cuz you’re cool

Go ahead, feel free to interrupt
Make sure that I’m aware of just how badly this song sucks
After all… your happiness is all I care about

Hey man, anything for you
I’m just the entertainment Here to make your dreams come true
Thank you - you’ve saved this night of Music there’s no doubt

So here’s a better song - I hope that you approve
It’s catchy and original And simple just like you
Feel free to sing along, or hoot and holler
When I’m half way through
Then I’ll promptly stop on cue & switch to playing Wagon Wheel for you
