"Why Must I Be Sad" is sung from the perspective of a kid who hears all of his unspoken sadness given voice in the music of Alice Cooper. Alice says everything the kid has been wishing he could say about his alienated, frustrated, teenage world. It's another one of our speculative, non-autobiographical songs which uses the word "I" a lot." - John Flansburgh

I'm the person from this song except I don't whine about identifying with Alice Cooper… I whine about the lyrics of John Linnell and Flansburgh.11 years ago
