Take The Bench Lyrics

Cover art for Take The Bench lyrics by Sloan

According to Murph, it's an agonizing piano recital and also an agonizing divorce. The kid is on the "bench" for both -- her parents have pushed her to perform onstage and in the courtroom.

I wonder if there are any other songs that compare divorce court to kids' recitals? Sloan found some odd parallels here.
