The Rebel Black Dot Song of the Day: SKApril
Less Than Jake, "The Science of Selling Yourself Short" from Anthem (T.L.A.M.)

Commentary: I could teach graduate-level courses in the science of selling yourself short.

"And so I sit and wait and wonder,
Does anyone else feel like me?
I'm so overdosed on apathy
And burnt out on sympathy.

"(I'll sing along),
Yeah, with every emergency,
(Just sing along),
I'm the king of catastrophes,
(I'm so far gone)
That deep down inside I think it's fine by me,
I'm my own worst enemy.

"Let the meaning slip away,
Lost my faith in another day,
Self-deprecation seems O.K.,
I never thought I'd make it anyway…"
