This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
While in high school, we were in charge of making a video teaching incoming freshmen helpful tips about high school. We think we did a pretty awesome job. Enjoy.
What up freshmen?
All the freshmen in the house say yeah
Yes!
I said all the freshmen in the house say yeah!
Yep!
Uh, uh, here we go!
High school is pretty crap
So we're gonna teach you with this hecka cool rap
How to get through your first year in school
And how to be like us and be super cool
If you wanna be cool you gotta get to school late
Cool guys always show up to school late
Your teacher might smack you and player hate
But don't worry bro, you can hit her with a tate
-er tot
Tatertots are great weapons and great food
Put 'em in your pocket for lunchtime, dude
But they get your pocket all hecka greasy
Cafeteria pizza will make you queasy
(chorus)
Bein' a freshman is totally fresh, man
Ditch class, punch bullies, throw 'em in a trashcan
If a teacher tries to fail you don't get mad
Just go home and bitch about it to your dad
There isn't such thing as being bullied
That's just called being a bitch
Step up to the bully, grab his balls, and give 'em a great big pinch
I once pinched a bullie's balls so hard they fell on the ground
He cried like a big dumb baby as I kicked them all around
His doctors tried to sew his balls back on but they just couldn't do it
'Cuz I broke into the operating room, grabbed his sack, and I threw it
Into his mom's mouth
(chorus)
Doing good in class and paying attention is for losers
I do good grammar and all I do is stare at teacher's hooters
But I still get A's in every class, wanna know how?
'Cause I ch-ch-ch-ch-cheat, let us show you now
You hide in a plant for a couple of hours 'till everyone's gone away
Then you sneak to the computer, use cool hax and you change all of your grades
Just watch out for the big janitor that comes at night
Try blinding him with your big flashlight
Then beat him to death with a big chalkstick
And kick him repeatedly in his big long
(chorus x2)
High school is not a place for f-f-f-f-f-fun
It's a place for making out with chicks and scoring digits, son
Never do homework and always ditch
And that's how you survive high school, bitch!
And when you're in the locker room, just make sure you wear a really long shirt
Or else you'll get a boner, and everyone will

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.

The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
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."
