about

Started: April 2016, right before I began work on Office Christmas Party. I wrote a little bit of a song about John Oliver using chronological snobbery, but titled it under “Unicorn Analogy” in reference to the terrible Powerpuff Girls episode “Horn Sweet Horn” that 90% of the Internet watched in response to trans-helmed thinkpieces about it. I thought that maybe I’d associate John Oliver’s occasional dip into trendy progressivism with the outright trendy progressivism shown in “Horn Sweet Horn” (which was all last-minute according to the writers), but as soon as I got on that movie, I was too busy to finish it.
Finished: June 2016, right when I got back from Vermont. Wrote the second verse about Milo, transforming a song about trendy progressivism into a song about the current political climate (from a libertarian point of view for once), using the existence of “Horn Sweet Horn” as a litmus test to judge the complacency of liberals and the stubbornness of conservatives. Wrote in the bridge sarcastically praising the episode.
Seriously, fuck that episode.

lyrics

You time-telling liberal faggot: you waxin’ the facts out of order. You didn’t do what I asked you – into your crooked nose, the door. Complete with complex emotions, a simple sideline with thoroughfare. Jesus Christ was wrong, go right for motion. Dump his ass over there in the chair.

You cocaine-snortin’ alt-right blonde boy, you outed her like she were Ethan Klein. She’s become your horse-faced bitch toy. You say she’s crossed your line. You said she was overdoin’ it in reaction to the unicorn analogy on McCracken Pt. II. They’re so far on Zbornak that Donny didn’t really work as intended. Point it out. It’s all up to you.

Let God judge you both – give you guys both rope. By the way, lather the soap, you dopes.

All hail Donny, he stood so tall. Donny, cyan lines say he’s okay. Donny protected by copyright law. Forever pain.
