Earworm of the Day: ben Folds - Rockin' The Suburbs

When I first heard this song nearly a decade ago, I had to groan. I'm not a huge fan of Ben Folds "Gen-X Randy Newman" schtick, but he often gets things right and he's still one of the best wordsmiths of the last twenty years. Here's a white guying singing about white guy privilege, suburban angst, and middle-aged ennui in funny, clever way.
