Your T.V. and your bed...

Unsure of his purpose on this crazy planet,
Derek Wright (in 5th Grade at the time)
attempted to become “hip” by composing a song
entitled “Friends.” The outcome? A 40-meter long
string of complete meaninglessness. Fueled by nothing
but the desire to try and be “cool,” Derek created what many people
all around the world consider to be the most
heroic accomplishment in songwriting history.
Even though Derek did have a couple of friends at the time, (a stuffed animal, a pencil sharpener) he decided to ignore that fact and imagine what it would possibly be like without blue, electronic pencil sharpeners. With a simple, yet bold and powerful riff, and an unprofessional and down-right annoying guitar solo, “Friends” was the most worthy result Derek’s undersized brain could come up with.
Because there are 3 or 4 people in the world that can acually tolerate "Friends," Derek figures that the 3 minutes it took to write the song were well spent.
* “Friends,” can't really be compared to any kind of music out there, but Derek was inspired by punk rock/alternative (especially Green Day!) at the time he composed this masterpiece of unpredictable art. *
--That Holloway kid seems to really enjoy this one.--
