Ideas for Einstein
Shadow Person
I got some ideas for Einstein He shoulda listened to me “Stop thinking so fucking relatively Longevity is key” He just glared at me from behind his cluttered desk. They shoulda listened to me. They shoulda listened to me. They shoulda listened to me. They shoulda listened to me. I got some ideas for Beethoven He shoulda listened to me While he still could. He was writing in silence, but that’s just applause that hasn’t happened yet “Why is it called Fur Elise, why not write about Skin Elise? Something more human?” He just groaned and he walked away. They shoulda listened to me. They shoulda listened to me. They shoulda listened to me. They shoulda listened to me. Maybe then they would see. I got some ideas for Darwin He shoulda listened to me Survival is overrated Thriving is key I sent him a selfie I titled it, “Missing Link Found” I told him to try smiling more, like me, But he didn’t get it. They shoulda listened to me. They shoulda listened to me. They shoulda listened to me. They shoulda listened to me. Maybe then they would see. They shoulda listened to me.

Catchy enough to hum, sharp enough to question everything - especially the noise we’ve mistaken for truth. This album is the fourth album by Shadow Person, aka Will Chatham.
