Art Rush - Segue #1 lyrics

At this point I'd like to introduce you to poet extraordinare Midworth Curtis. Here he is now, in tight black jeans and a sharp collared shirt. In this song, "The Basement", he's attempting to pick up a girl named Olivia Hayes at the Chautauqua Slam event. His seduction spiel includes a lengthy digression on how offensive and invasive targeted marketing is, as he points to examples all around them, showing off his deep thought and insight-- but Midworth is a hypocrite, as he is selling himself to her exactly the same way.
