Ok, ok...a Cake song I don't think is supremely stupid. Does that mean high score? Nope...just not terrible.

Okay - the cover has a pig.  I can only offer this:  A pig's orgasm lasts for half an hour.  I don't know if this is pertinent, but somehow, I can't help but think it is.  And pigs are physically unable to look up into the sky.  So if a bird craps on them, they won't know it. But then, their orgasms last for half an hour, so I'm pretty sure they don't care if a bird craps on them.

The song?  Um, I'm sure someone else will comment on it. I'm too busy thinking about what it would be like to have a half-hour orgasm.  Maybe without being a pig.

 
 Half an hour? That's the reason why the album's title is "Prolonging the Magic".

Are male pigs so lucky, or is this exclusive to female pigs?

From your mouth to God's ear. I'd just your "a little" to "really, really" .

Whatever happened to Crash Test Dummies? Do they still have that crappy singer who sounds like he's trying to hold in a massive bong hit during the whole song?

John McCrea, the lead singer, doesn't have much range. All the same spoken word annoying crap.
 
Yes, "spoken-song" or "spoken-voice" singing.  He's been doing it for almost 20 years now.  It's annoying sometimes but that's a component of CAKE.

I hear you and I too really like cake. But I wish they'd offer us something a bit different. Still cake-y, but different. As an analogy, lets consider Cake is a vanilla cake with chocolate frosting. All of their music is vanilla cake with chocolate frosting — certainly tasty, but if you like cake, you might like a little variety. For instance throw some coconut cake, or Black Forest cake, or chocolate cake with seven-minute frosting into the mix. Still Cake, but a little different and it will keep you coming back for more.

Yup!  I get it.  I particularly like the lead vocalist & smooth trumpet.  It's sort of like nuevo lounge.
