Story behind the song
Just trying to capture what it is like to be a singer/songwriter that fame passed over. The song creates its own dilemma as follows: if I become famous, the song will not be true any more, which will be disconcerting. I'm effectively predicting that I will fail, so if I don't fail, I'll look quite foolish.
Lyrics
Hey there, Internet I got a song for you today A tale about a boy Who’s in the zone and on his way He’s the one who sent a demo To John Mayer’s agent Rob All about an evening rockstar Who kept his daytime job I’m the reckless child of Dylan Loudon Wainwright stole my style Don McLean comes out my fingers Elvis loaned me his own smile You can even hear Don Henley Play his drums on my CD I’ve got a very famous family Though they've never heard of me I don’t read those magazines That only feed the game of fame Little need for limousines And I don’t ride a private plane I don’t grace a music label I can make an mp3 But I’m better than the Beatles Every song of mine is free
