About this song: Art Is Hard

Lyrcs: Cut it out
Your self-inflicted pain
Is getting too routine
The crowds are catching on
To the self-afflicted song
So here we go again:
The art of acting weak
Fall in love to fail
To boost your CD sales And that CD sells
Yeah, what a hit
You've got to repeat it
You've got to sink to swim First you don't, you don't succeed
You've got to recreate your misery
You all know art is hard
Young artists have got to starve
Try and fail and try again
The comforts of repetition
Keep churning out those hits
