A Sense Of The Absurd by Jerkatorium

You need Kool-Aid
Kool-Aid

I know that those ain't the right words,
It’s just the words I thought I’d heard.

Back in third grade maybe I wasn’t Robert Plant,
So I made up the parts of songs I didn’t understand.

Yeah you need Kool-Aid
Kool-Aid

What I’d ostensibly misheard
Instilled a sense of the absurd.

Back then Led Zeppelin II made me want to rock,
But I was still too young to understand the raunchy talk,

So I sang Kool-Aid
Kool-Aid

No Dukes of Hazzard
in the classroom,
Teachers leave those
kids alone.

What I’d ostensibly misheard
Instilled a sense of the absurd.
Absurd
Absurd
Absurd
Absurd

[Mondegreen songs: "Whole Lotta Love" by Led Zeppelin and "Another Brick In The Wall, Part 2" by Pink Floyd]

Led Zeppelin, yeah! I think you did the Pink Floyd tribute moment better though.

Very on-the-nose lyrics - still clever at parts. I think this is getting closer to the farcical line that I am more comfortable with. Musically, it's a nice song but doesn't stand out of the pack, despite your usual clever electronic sprinkles on top of punk.

I’ve liked most of your work thus far, but this one missed the mark for me. Nothing sit well with me, the music was ok...but the change of pace just felt out of place. Lyrics bored me, and the only positive was your vocals.
