Aquaman's Lament
Found via the Absorbascon, Mark Aaron James' "Aquaman's Lament" is a song about the king of the seas being a hopeless romantic and getting soused on gin. Hence, it was written just for me. Enjoy.

The most amazing part is: it's actually a good song!
It's a funny song, sure, but it's a song first.
And, that's admirable.
Props to Mr. James.

It felt like something that would come from a Del Amitri or a Spin Doctors but it was actually entertaining.
Nice find

Agree with the Spin Doctors ref, DubipR. Matter of fact, it quite distinctly reminds me of the song Jimmy Olsen's Blues from Pocketful of Kryptonite.
