When I saw MU330 play a couple of years back, they said this song was inspired by some huge standing stones they saw in Ireland while on tour. |

| Dead Kennedys – Chemical Warfare Lyrics

Great song! The politicians and aristocrats in 'high society' are happy to give the order to condemn hundreds/thousands of people in foreign lands to their deaths with horrific chemical and biological weapons. Good ol' Jello fantasises about giving them a taste of their own medicine, down in their natural habitat. |

| Dead Kennedys – Drug Me Lyrics

I think it's more about how adopting more passive habits stifles creativity. Rather than do something imaginitive or productive, the guy in the song keeps his brain 'busy' with drugs, both literal and metaphoric. |

| Dead Kennedys – Too Drunk to Fuck Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
Not to piss on your bonfire, but Detachable Penis is a King Missile song, not Dead Milkmen.
And yes, one of the all-time classic drinking songs, up there with Schlong's 'Days of our Livers' and Diesel Queens 'Fuckn Drink'. Hit em up! |

| They Might Be Giants – Particle Man Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
Why are so many people opposed to analysing this song? My conclusion is that they are all freemasons, bent on keeping secret the hidden universal truths within Particle Man.
It interesting to hear the opinions of those that actually have them. I always thought of this song as a social criticism, how triangle man beats down on those 'inferior' to him, yet keeps away from universe man who could obviously kick his ass. And how person man is unhappy because he recognises the sitution he is in. Of course, nothing bothers particle man. |

What are you talking about?! It IS german - and yes it's about serving drinks at the correct temperature.
Why the words are all backwards, I dont know. Also, theres far more words here than in the actual song. I can't tell if any of the lyrics here are actually in the recording i've got, the words aren't exactly clear... |

| Leftover Crack – So You Wanna Be A Cop? Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
I agree. In some places the cops are actually nice and friendly and fight real crimes, but for the most part they're just a bunch of fat corrupt nazis on a power trip.
It's usually the city cops that are worst, in my experience.
Anyway, this song reminds me of a guy I knew in school that became a cop after he flunked college. He's probably not too bad at it, he was a bit of a twunt but he was honest.
Havent seen him for years now though, wonder if he's corrupted too?
Sorry for rambling.
Pirates ARE awesome. |

| Leftover Crack – Heroin Or Suicide? Lyrics

|
Yeah, its the theme from Clockwork Orange - It's also the backing to the Intro on the same CD with all them bitchin' Mr T soundclips.
And the song is about heroin addiction, but I think that's obvious/already pointed out anyway. |

'punk in drublic99', Heavyweight is a facking Bollweevils album - thanks for posting the lyrics to every bastard song on the NOFX board, douchebag. And yeah, its a Bad Brains cover anyway. Jesus, get your freaking facts right.
Is there some way to get crap mispostings like this removed? |

| Propagandhi – Nation States Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
Just a note:
The Less Talk/Survival of the Fattest version says 'Barcodes of these neo-colonials', but the Quantity is Job #1 version says 'Bottles'. And It's called '...And We Thought Nation States Were A Bad Idea' on both albums, but just 'Nation States' on the compilation.
Pedantry ends... |

| Rancid – Rejected Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
An autobiographical song about being turned down for major label record contracts.
Nope. It's about social rejection, obviously. This is easily my favorite Freeman-sung Rancid song, I totally prefer his 40-a-day growling to Lars 'Rod Stewart' Fredricksen (or however its spelt) |

I think it's about having difficulty dealing with your own emotional responses; to be in like a strange mental territory where you don't feel 'as you should' in a certain situation, and how obsessing about it makes it worse. |

I used to think this was about a girl who was going on holiday to find a man for a one-night stand so she could get pregnant and not have to have the guy around. And that 'another' baby was because she had a miscarriage or something. Man, my mind is a dark and horrible place. |

| Against All Authority – Chelsea Baby Lyrics

Its about Chelsea Clinton, if thats not blindingly obvious. She was spotted at a few punk shows apparantly (with full entourage of bodyguards), which is what I guess prompted this song.
Bet she never went to an AAA show. |

Fantastic song about how people expect him to be a militant hardcase just cause he's political, and how as a result he has trouble with personal relationships.
Released (at least) thrice under three different names, 'Utter Crap Song', 'About As Close To Emo As We'll Ever Get' and 'Woe Is Me' |

For the record, 'Corazon De Oro' is spanish for 'Heart Of Gold'. This song is the entry music for a wrestler here in Mexico. Can't remember his name but his gimmick is being Canadian. |

| The Black Eyed Peas – Anxiety Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
Yeah, it's obviously about having some kind of anxiety disorder. It's a frickin awful feeling, like being jacked up on caffeine for hours on end. There's nothing worse than getting 'the fear', and that's what the song is about.
Hope you feel better soon, fivergirl. |

No, he's real - I dont know many details, but he was a union leader in the 30s or thereabouts, and he rallyed up the workforce (dock workers i think) and make a stand against their shitty working conditions. During one of their pickets the police opened fire into a crowd and killed three of them. Thats all I know, but its better than nothing, eh? |

Is it bollocks about stds - its about Lindane, something doctors used to prescribe to treat headlice and scabies. It was later found to be a dangerous carcinogenic, and can cause cancer if used too frequently (like if you keep catching scabies, which is highly contagious). |

| Propagandhi – Haillie Sellasse, Up Your Ass Lyrics
| 21 years ago
|
The song is specifically slating Rastafarianism, on the grounds that the 'saviour' of the Rastafarian religion was supposedly Haille Sellaise, who was going to lead the Ethiopian people to the promised land (Zion/Israel - which isnt that great a place anyway). But Haille Sellaise never did, and is now dead - yet the religion lives on for some reason.
And like all songs about rastafarianism (although usually pro-rasta), its in the reggae stylee. Top dog! |
