	Oh, I love myself a man with brains!! Very well done, erod2214. :)

No Picture anthony Rhythm Player	#2 by anthony kent at Jan 15, 1978 at 9:08 AM EST
	I agree with broken, How come theres hardly any comments for this song? I was very obsessed with it last summer. It's the best song off of Absoloution in my opinion. I think it should have been a single.

No Picture Waz Wanna Be	#6 by Waz at Oct 31, 1994 at 5:06 AM EST
	I think Erod's opinion is more plausible.

No Picture Vinnie Rhythm Player	#7 by Vinnie Valium at Nov 28, 1995 at 3:47 PM EST
	The original title was "Action Faust" which pertains to a play by Goethe called Faust. Read that and you'll understand more about this song. It is basically the Devil talking about a contract he made with the character Faust. The "Small Print" in the contract is where they came up with this title. Faust sold his soul to the devil if the devil would be his slave during Faust's life. Faust would, in turn, have to be a slave to the devil in the afterlife. Faust sold his soul to the devil for his earthly desires, but was not completely satisfied at his death. This song is written from the Devil's perspective.

No Picture billy Average	#8 by billy hendrix at Dec 1, 1999 at 11:25 AM EST
	This song contains my favourite lyric ever: "I'm the priest god never paid." there's something so psychotic about it. I love it. I am another person who agrees with erods interpretation. that's pretty cool.

No Picture Rens Wanna Be	#9 by Rens van den Braak at Feb 20, 2005 at 1:50 AM EST
	Whoah I knew this song was called the smallprint but I never knew why. Because of what erod said it completely makes sense. Ps- Muse's best song.
