From the recording Area Man - live

Recorded at Uncommon Ground, Chicago, October 2006

Lyrics

He thinks the zeitgeist is a microbrew
But it's his moment - he is so uncool, he's cool
Area Man
Goes ice-fishing for Godot
Speaks in a monotone
Area Man

He was contented with the simple things
Basic cable and a can of Pringle's chips
Area Man
But now he's catching on
His innocence is gone
Area Man

He put his journal on the internet
Sophisticated people think that he's their pet
Area Man
Now he just parodies
The man he used to be
Area Man
