All I know of Nietzsche was a note
on a bathroom wall he must’ve wrote
when he was drunk, because all it said
was that god is dead.

God, in that same bathroom stall,
scrawled next to a number to call
for a good time, in rebuttal said,
Nietzsche too is dead.

The Thrills are a Dublin pop band with only 9 Friends on their Myspace page, one of whom is Tom (who has over two-hundred and twenty two million “friends” which is kind of like having no friends at all).

The Thrills’ song “The Midnight Choir” is my favorite song that sounds like the Flaming Lips but isn’t a Flaming Lips song.
