Josh Joplin Group

Josh Joplin Group was an American Georgia-based folk rock band led by singer-songwriter Josh Joplin. Joplin brought the group its trademark combination of introspective lyrics, catchy melodies, and lead vocals that, to many, sound identical to those of R.E.M. singer Michael Stipe (to the point that one Joplin song, "Happy at Last," begins, "I sound like Michael Stipe and I dream like Carl Jung"). more »

Richard is important 
To Richard and his most important friends 
He doesn't take phone calls 
He sits in his office and pretends 
He's Atticus Finch
He's everybody's mensh 
When it comes to clients 
He counts himself among the very best 
But when it comes to stature 
He only counts the size of other men's desks 
He's counting every inch
He's counting every inch 

And it's only entertainment 
It's only entertainment 
Don't make it so hard 
Don't make it so hard 

Amanda of the underground 
Brings high art to her lo-fi sound 
Her nifty hipster friends agree 
A band's only as good as its scene 
Save us Polly Jean
We know not what we mean 

And it's only entertainment 
It's only entertainment 
Don't make it so hard 
Don't make it so hard

Freddie's demographic grows, 
Angry boys in baggy clothes 
As critics eulogize the songs, 
And record store clerks mourn along 
And the years go by and the chords don't change 
We're all Pat Boone by different names 

And it's only entertainment 
It's only entertainment 
Don't make it so hard 
Don't make it so hard
