Aaron Bentley: The Superficial Song

(Description)

I'm gonna sing a superficial song tonight.
I'll make it simple, make it stupid, make it trite.
'Cause, if I play a sober song, then my perspective might be wrong,
And so I'll sing a superficial song tonight.

I'm gonna sing a superficial song tonight.
What in the dark is sweet grows rancid in the light.
And if I play a sober song, then I just might get it all wrong,
And so I'll sing a superficial song tonight.

I'm gonna sing a superficial song tonight.
I don't write lyrics well--I'm really not that bright.
And if I play a sober song, it's ten to one I will go wrong,
And so I'll sing a superficial song tonight.
