Oh man, the description of how it came about and the write is hilarious. I read some wonderful responses to trolls back during the ole net flame wars in the 90's but this is the best. By a long shot.
A glimpse inside your head when the inspiration hits would be worth whatever the price of the ticket!
Fun!

Funny tune. Glad you kept it generic and addressed it to a fictional character.... How could one be offended if they don't exist?

Charlie, I don't know Jean-Paul Sartre. Hmmmmmm. Maybe you could start smoking a pipe and create an entire philosophical movement around that.  Hey, I have an idea for your first novel: Nausea. Just a thought. Or "Country Joe: If He falls off a bar stool and no one hears him is he still drunk?"

David, you've ruined the rest of my year! To have the song of the year written so early in the year simply takes the wind out of my sails to even try.
This, my friends, is the brilliance of the program. Someone like David can write and produce an entire song this fast. So cool!
Thanks for the laugh David! I didn't see that comin' and somehow it doesn't surprise me that you could do it!
