"The Systematic Dumbing Down of Terry Constance Jones" by Butterfly Jones

In 1998, the modern rock trio dada released their fourth LP, a self-titled effort that should have been a huge comeback for the band whose first record went gold in 1992. But dada closed the 90s with an unjustified fizzle.

Two of the boys, Michael Gurley and Phil Leavitt, started a side project called Butterfly Jones. Their one and only record, "Napalm Springs", surfaced in 2001 and was virtually ignored. And it is a real shame - the record is packed with incredible riffs, catchy songs, and a plethora of witty lyrics.   

"The Systematic Dumbing Down of Terry Constance Jones" is one highlight of many, a song about the misguided pursuit of youth and exterior beauty.
