Faintpraise Lyrics by Slugbug

0xBAADF00D

2020

Damned by faint praise
Been damned by faint... praise
Exposed to harsh rays
Been shook with weird waves
And maybe subsequently damned by faint praise

Who does he think he is, putting on such airs?
(...does he think he is, putting on such...)
Take the reins and it don't precipitate
Thought brake squealing loud
Brain tape playing out

I have done things that cannot be done
Known things that cannot be known
Effed the ineffable (Twice)
I effed the ineffable (At the same time)

[?]
Telling me:
Should've learned C
Should've learned PHP
Who do they think they are?
Living on some pairs of pants in my household
Should've learned Fortran
Should've learned Javascript
Should've [?]
Doesn't matter where you put the [?]
Doesn't matter

Doing the hard work when the image is glorified
Passed before swine, even if the sentiment was genuine
You've been damned by faint praise, too

You have heard things that cannot be said
Said things that cannot be heard
You've reached the highest plateau of tranquility, wisom, and understanding
You've been granted the power to change the things you cannot accept
