Dear Weezer,
Please stop releasing albums. They keep getting worse and worse. I just get the feeling you're trying to make a joke each time you put out an album, until you've made a joke so obvious that EVERYBODY calls you on it. Your new album, for example, is called Raditude. Tracks 2-4 are called, respectively "I'm Your Daddy," "The Girl Got Hot," and "Can't Stop Partying (feat. Lil Wayne)." I'm really not confident.
Please remember; you dressed up like the Village People for your last album cover. When the initial releases went out, a few reviewers had to verify that it WASN'T a joke. But it wasn't. Track 5 began with the priceless lyrics "When I was younger/I used to tip cows for fun, yeah/actually I didn't do that/because I didn't want the cow to be sad, yeah." The song's chorus is a near exact lift of Darkwing Duck's famous catchphrase, with a rousing backing of "Bee-yatch," alternating with "booo-yah!" And let's not forget "I Am The Greatest Man Who Ever Lived." Wait, nevermind. Let's.
One album prior, the second single shared a melody with the famous schoolyard "Diarrhea" song ("If you're sliding into first, etc, etc"). You called it "We Are All On Drugs." The leadoff single from the terrible album before THAT one contained the great lyrics "Cheese tastes so good on a burnt piece of lamb/fag of the year who could beat up your man." That was the ENTRIE 2nd verse, and sadly, some of the better lyrics in the song (Titled "Dope Nose").
In short, knock it off. You PROMISED you'd break up after the Make Believe Tour, but you released an album the very next year. Be men of your word this time. Please.
