Summer Song Challenge, Day 61: Dave

Prompt: "A song whose lyrics describe someone eating something"

Selected by Dave


"Let's Moshercise!!!"
The Wonder Years
Get Stoked on It!, 2007

The Wonder Years do not like their first album, Get Stoked on It! As referenced in their song "Hoodie Weather," "The songs we wrote at eighteen seem shortsighted and naïve." Due to this sentiment, the album is unavailable on streaming platforms, and the songs are officially retired from their live performance. So, in a sense, they canceled their own album. You'll find the album on YouTube if you're interested. Shortsighted and naïve? Sure, but it's fun. I saw them play the album in a West Philly basement in 2009, but that's a story for another blog post.
