about

This is basically a summation of the politics surrounding the Hugo Awards (given out annually at the World Science Fiction Convention for excellence in speculative fiction) the past few years. You can find out all about it en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sad_Puppies . Short form: Ooh! Ooh! My precious hurt fee-fees!

lyrics

Sad puppies, sad puppies,
Sad puppies aren't much fun.

All their plots, all their hooks,
But no one nominated their books,
Sad puppies never won.

Oblivion was their fate,
Till they stuffed the ballot with hate,
Sad puppies want to run, no no no.

Rabid puppies joined in too,
They’ll kill the Hugo before they’re through,
Rabid puppies have just begun.

Sad puppies
Brad’s puppies
Sad and Rabid puppies aren't much fun.

C'mon, everybody! NO, REALLY, EVERYBODY!

Nominated barely,
Can’t win fairly,
Sad and Rabid puppies aren't much fun.

One more time for Theodore Beale!

Sad Puppies,
Jesus what annoying puppies,
Sad and Rabid puppies aren't much fun.

Thanks for putting all this up as a single collection! The only real drawback I’ve found to the Bandcamp app so far is that it doesn’t seem to auto-advance from one song to the next unless they’re in the same collection/post/whatever they call these. professionalhenchman
