"watch it all like the circus it is
when your born you get a free ticket to the freak show
enjoy the show"
- George Carlin


Feature text are the lyrics from, Pitchshifter - Please Sir

please sir tell me why there's no black superman, kkk kryptonite?
"god only makes caucasian superheroes."
please sir tell me why we stick a man on the moon when life on earth's so
cheap.
"son, we gotta do our bit for the world trade deficit."
please sir tell me why if 'god is love' I'm so dysfunctional.
please sir tell me why there's so much vagrancy.
"layabouts get a job."
well there's an opening for a part-time una-bomber.
please sir tell me why my life's so pitiful but "the future's so bright."
well I'd look ahead but it burns my retinas.

the inspiration for the piece sort of began with me wanting to do a anti religious piece, whilst creating that I heard this song liked it at first for its beat and style but after further listening to it and then looking up the lyrics I loved it and reinvented this new piece around it so that I could display the message in the lyrics.

comments welcome.

I like how you show the siluettes with words and hole style of an overpainted wall.
Interesting topic;).

thanx for answering my questions! i really believe its brilliant, think this is what fanart should be all about, taking someone elses piece expanding it in your own way making people see it in new ways. like michelangelo this megastar and all, and then adam (a MEGASTAR u might say...) you put him in this totally different context, which makes the beholder reassess one thing or another.....

the layout and the way you presented this are awesome... I find myself drawn to all the negative black though... looking into the shadows so to say...

clearly and easily seen for what you intended.
