DEÄTHMÜFFIN UPDATE: LET IT SUCK!
In keeping with our general theme of optimism, we thought we’d kick off 2016 with this song intended to inspire positive thinking in the young people of today.
PRODUCTION TRIVIA: As it happens, most of the lyrics are 25 years old - I wrote a similar song for a music project called Buckwheat & Radishes back in the early 90s, inspired by a good friend of mine who made the general grammatical observation expressed in the song. It stuck with me, obviously - I don’t have the original lyrics written down anywhere, I just remembered the majority of them one day for no real reason.
The original music for the song was generic hardcore punk. We’ve updated it to suit the Banäna Deäthmüffins sound. And we’re proud of the results. In fact, we’re kinda hoping this wins a Grammy for the category of Best Attempt By A Song To Alter The Meaning Of A Word In The Urban Dictionary.
They still have that category, right?

LYRICS
When you have a bad day
Or someone makes you mad
You say this really sucks
But why is that so bad
If someone goes down on you
It makes you really happy
Why do you compare it
To a thing that’s really crappy
So let’s flip it on its head
Make somebody’s day
Accentuate the positive
Join me when I say:
It sucks and I’m happy
It sucks and that’s okay
It sucks and I don’t mind at all
Have a sucky day
Sucking is a good thing
With the proper attitude
It’s a new philosophy
To suck is always good
