Write a Song About White Trash, Hit Single
Theory of a Deadman has released a song called Low Life, a lovely tune about beer swilling, hillbillies, who don't give a fuck what you think. If Kid Rock has proved anything, the white trash, hillbillies are proud people like the Cherokee Indians. They buy what you tell them if you put a NASCAR number on it; they love songs proclaiming how great it is to be a "redneck," breed indiscriminately, and drinking generic beer.
I mention Kid Rock as he has made a damn career out of catering to that demographic, because he is one. He likes to punch people at the Waffle House (link), drive Camaros, and drink whiskey out of the bottle. Here is his dissertation on that subject.
Back to Theory of a Deadman, those well groomed "Low Lifes" are from America's hat, Canadia. So what do they know about driving an 83 Fiero and being a hillbilly? Which, by the way, is described as a person who lives in rural or mountaineous regions of the United States (link).
I am wondering why no one writes a song about White Collar workers. Fuck I should do it myself. Here are my new lyrics, you can substitue in place of Theory of a Deadman's Low Life lyrics:
You know I'll be the one who gets in the office
At 8 am on Monday morn
I've got a 92 Audi with a baby on board sticker
And the service is up to date
I've got a white oxford button down shirt
That's been pressed by the Asian cleaner
I'm a middle class
Suburban dad
I've got my kids bag of Kix in the palm of my hand
I'm middle class, so fucking deal with it
No you can't change something that you don't understand
I waited till we were ready
To get married and have a child
Sleepless night, puke sleeves don't phase me
Sleep only four hours a night
Chours
I'm an Excel stacking, pencil pushing, accountant
Lovin the life of reports
Passed out on the desk, graphs due by 4
Fuck my dead end life
They do win an award for "Great use of Donal Logue."
