I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
It started on the Real World
A hot tub full of hot girls
Grindin' every frat boy and freak
Line up all the Idols
Who paint on phony smiles
Tryin' to ride the fast track for free
Who's the Biggest Looser
I watched the 'Biggest Loser'
Bigger ratings for MTV
All the sole Survivors
Still stranded on the island
Lying through their teeth for money
So everybody dance! Everybody sing!
If you wanna go far, if you wanna be a star
Yeah we can swing it
Cha-Ching
When you take off all your clothes,
When you strike a Playboy pose
If you wanna go far, if you wanna be a star
Then you gotta bring it
Cha-Ching
Every body stop and stare
Kardashian asses every where
If you missed it watch T-M-Z
Pretending to be (bleeped out)
The dealers playing all of them
While Flavor Flave get fucked up for free
Guess who's been livin' large
It's mini me the porn star
Google it I think you'll agree
And all the hotties on the Hills
Just getting rich and making deals (mills')
While you and I are watchin' TV
So everybody dance! Everybody sing!
If you wanna go far, if you wanna be a star
Yeah we can swing it
Cha-Ching
We take off all your clothes, we strike a Play Boy pose
If you wanna go far, if you wanna be a star
Then you gotta bring it
Cha-Ching
The all American dream
Is getting fifteen for free
The all American dream is so skin deep
It started on the Real World
A hot tub full of hot girls
Grinding every frat boy and fake
So everybody dance! Everybody sing!
If you wanna go far, if you wanna be a star
Yeah we can swing it
Cha-Ching
We take off all your clothes, we strike a Play Boy pose
If you wanna go far, if you wanna be a star
Then you gotta bring it
Cha-Ching
So everybody dance! Everybody sing!
If you wanna go far, if you wanna be a star
Yeah we can swing it
Cha-Ching
We take off all your clothes, we strike a Play Boy pose
If you wanna go far, if you wanna be a star
Then you gotta bring it
Cha-Ching
So hurry turn it on, turn it on, get your 15 minutes
It's almost gone, turn it on, turn it on
(Cha-Ching)
So hurry turn it on, turn it on, get your 15 minutes
It's almost gone, turn it on, turn it on

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
