Neutra Face : An Ode On A Typeface (A Bearded Poker Face Parody)
An homage to the Neutra typeface inspired by the song Poker Face by Lady GaGa.
'NEUTRA' is actually pronounced 'NOY-trah', but that escaped our knowledge in the fits of fun we were having doing this project. Word.

lyrics (vocals may differ slightly):
I lay it out like they do in magazines check out this typeface it's like smoking nicotine (I love it) using Adobe's not the same without a Mac if it was lead it would be lined up on a track
oh,oh,oh,oh, ohhhh, ohh-oh-e-ohh-oh-oh I'll mock it up, show you what I got oh,oh,oh,oh, ohhhh, ohh-oh-e-ohh-oh-oh I'll mock it up, show you what I got
You'll read my, You'll read my, You can read my Neutra Face (Even if it's bold italic) You'll read my, You'll read my, You can read my Neutra Face (Even if it's bold italic)
N-n-n-neutra face, n-n-n-neutra face nah nah nah nah N-n-n-neutra face, n-n-n-neutra face nah nah nah nah
Thought about Futura but the em space was to wide not even when condensed,believe me i've already tried Gill sans the G is wack when it's in lowercase Avante Garde you make me hard but like Helvetica you've been played
oh,oh,oh,oh, ohhhh, ohh-oh-e-ohh-oh-oh I'll mock it up, show you what I got oh,oh,oh,oh, ohhhh, ohh-oh-e-ohh-oh-oh I'll mock it up, show you what I got
You'll read my, You'll read my, You can read my Neutra Face (Even if it's bold italic) You'll read my, You'll read my, You can read my Neutra Face (Even if it's bold italic)
N-n-n-neutra face, n-n-n-neutra face nah nah nah nah N-n-n-neutra face, n-n-n-neutra face nah nah nah nah
I won't tell you that you're modern post- or nouveau cause I'm hype'n with my type'n I'm not freehandin', letterpressin', texting or skywriting like a finger on a keyboard break a nail before I cross you see my references, reference this check this font cause it's sans serif
You'll read my, You'll read my, You can read my Neutra Face (Even if it's bold italic) You'll read my, You'll read my, You can read my Neutra Face (Even if it's bold italic)
