This is a cautionary tale.

I should try reversing some of my other song names, see if they give me ideas too.

I started playing Street Fighter IV last week, which inspired this.

(also oops, it’s not a microsong! My mistake.)

#12: “Larry Baldock”

In which I suddenly go political. Which is of course incredibly stupid, because (a) most of my regular listeners don’t live in New Zealand, so the song won’t make the slightest bit of sense to them unless they do lots of googling, (b) it’s going to age badly, and (c) going political is always stupid, because it alienates the people who don’t happen to share your exact point of view.

For what it’s worth, I only genuinely believe about 14% of what I say in this song. I have nothing against Larry; I’m sure everything he’s done has been with the purest intentions. But when when you single-handedly spend $9,000,000 of your country’s money, I’d say that makes you fair game for some good old-fashioned theatrical vitriol.

In related news, “theatrical vitriol” is really fun to say.
