Pay Attention, Willya?

Lileks does it again. I will admit that "Indiana Wants Me" isn't a very good song - though it is, at a certain age, a haunting one - but there's no excuse for this:
Poor guy! And what had he done wrong, really? Well, he killed a guy – but the lug had it coming, since “No one had the right to say the things he said.” What? That pi was actually a finite number? White shoes could be worn in March? “Catsup” was the preferred spelling, not “Ketchup”? Whatever it was, shooting seemed a rather drastic response.
Dear James: the very next words of the song are "about you".
