I'm the only subject I can discuss with any authority
And you are just like me we both want to be the priority
Not everyone's just like you that's why you're not the majority
But don't complain you'll still get into the sorority
Monsters taught me how to read
While I was just watching TV
My parents would often shout
Spelling all the letters out
They rarely show you Muppet legs
My mother once made me green eggs
Muppet legs are rarely missed
We still believe that they exist
You mistake my confidence for a sense of superiority
I just like the sound of unused words and their sonority
Inside those sounds sometimes I've found such enormity
But you act as if talk like that is some deformity
Monsters taught me how to read
While I was just watching TV
My parents would often shout
Spelling all the letters out
They rarely show you Muppet legs
My mother once made me green eggs
Muppet legs are mainly fists
We still believe that they exist
It's the essence of TMJ to follow up a smart song about the need to forge new memories with a killer that grooves on everything great and awful about the 1970s. Brash, confident, and deeply pleasurable -- and its vibe is punctured by the new old b-side's warning "living backwards in time/losing your mind." As always, TMJ has it all ways, beautifully. Alan S
