No Commentary. Sorry fellow fans and booklet readers. No haiku this time either. Just an empty page, with nothing to entertain you except the track title, artist credits, and pretty arts to the right.
SCREW THAT.
I'm gonna fill these empty pages with a story, just for you. I haven't written anything since high school English class. You're in for a treat. It's gonna be
S T U P I D
DUSK FALLS ACROSS A SAFFROWN MEADOW. A SINGLE BLADE OF CRABGRASS UNDULATES VOLUMINOUSLY AMIDST THE RAPTUROUS BREEZE, ONLY TO HALT ITS SWAY SUDDENLY AND CRUNCHINGLY AS IT IS CRASSLY CRUSHED UNDERFOOT BY AN IMMENSE FOOT (SPECIFICALLY THE UNDERNEATH PART OF THAT FOOT). THE OWNER OF THE AFOREMENTIONED FOOT LOOKS DOWNWARD WITH AN AIR OF BAFFLED ASTONISHMENT, IN A SIMILAR FASHION TO HOW A MOOSE CAUGHT IN A UFO TRACTOR BEAM MIGHT LOOK AT A BLADE OF CRABGRASS IT HAD JUST TRODDEN ON. THIS ISN'T A SIMILE.
