Umm...I'm going to (ironically) criticize these lyrics. This isn't "eloquent anger", it's just a ragtag collection of slam lines that include "you don't even create, you just critique", which is a really lame argument. The prophetic/copacetic couplet is laughably bad. This song has a great title, though. It would be much better if the lyrics were full of critic-speak that exposes itself has hollow and shallow. The cleverness in this song ends at the title.
How is the "you don't create" line a lame argument? I think it takes a lot more guts to write and preform music today than it does to wait around for the newest releases to bitch about for a living. Also, if the song seems cartoonishly spiteful or simplistic, I think the last line ("In your signature style, we compose this review of you") implies it was written that way intentionally. Besides, a song doesn't have to be a sound argument. I think this song effectively expresses some raw, sincere emotion better than it makes an argument against music critics....
