Damned by faint praise

Been damned by faint... praise

Exposed to harsh rays

Been shook with weird waves

And maybe subsequently damned by faint praise

Who does he think he is, putting on such airs?

(...does he think he is, putting on such...)

Take the reins and it don't precipitate

Thought brake squealing loud

Brain tape playing out

I have done things that cannot be done

Known things that cannot be known

Effed the ineffable (Twice)

I effed the ineffable (At the same time)

[?]

Telling me:

Should've learned C

Should've learned PHP

Who do they think they are?

Living on some pairs of pants in my household

Should've learned Fortran

Should've learned Javascript

Should've [?]

Doesn't matter where you put the [?]

Doesn't matter

Doing the hard work when the image is glorified

Passed before swine, even if the sentiment was genuine

You've been damned by faint praise, too

You have heard things that cannot be said

Said things that cannot be heard

You've reached the highest plateau of tranquility, wisom, and understanding

You've been granted the power to change the things you cannot accept
