Biografía:
El trio formado por Ben Folds, Darren Jessee y Robert Sledge con excelente sentido del humor y una inteligencia poco vista en el pop fue capaz de producir albumes como Whatever and ever amen o Naked baby Photos. Sus canciones son sarcásticas y con algo de humor negro como en Song for the Dumped o increiblemente trabajadas y bellas como en Magic.
El último trabajo de la banda fue en 1999 con The Unauthorized Biography of Reinhold Messner. Suceso que dio pie a la fructífera carrera solista de Ben Folds, lider de la banda.

(Original Key: Gm)
Intro:
Em B7/D# D A7/C# (x2), C
Verse 1:
G D/F# C/E D6 D
Pangs, of silence, from the room up-stairs.
C G
Hows the view there?
G D7
Do you read what they're saying about you?
Verse 2:
G D7/F# C/E D6
That you're no fun, since the war was won.
C G
In fact, you have become,
G D7 Am7 C
All of the things you've always... run... away from.
Chorus 1:
Em B7/D# D A/C#
The ascent of Stan; textbook hippie man.
Em B7/D# D A/C#
Get rest while you can.
Verse 3:
G D/F# C/E D6 D
So where'd the years go? All the time we had?
C G G D7
Being poor was, not such a drag in hindsight.
Verse 4:
G D7/F# C/E D6 C G
And you wonder, why your father was, so re-signed.
G D7 Am7 C
Now you don't wonder, any-more...

How's it feel to be the man?
