| The Mighty Mighty Bosstones – Don't Worry Desmond Dekker Lyrics | 18 years ago |

I think the line is "Clash" and "The Selecter". The Clash is obviously a well known 70's-80's British punk rock bank, and a quick Wikipedia search tells me that The Selecter is a British ska band from the same time period. So basically what this song says to me is that Dicky is reminiscing on old times and talking about how things have changed with him over time... However despite all, his roots remain the same. He's tipping his hat to his influences and saying that they haven't been forgotten. Not by a long shot. He's still got their records and he keeps them in good condition. |

| Tally Hall – Just Apathy Lyrics | 19 years ago |

I can really relate to this song. It's helped me through some tough times. I feel like the guy feels like he's not as great as he should be and he keeps changing his mind about relationships. He feels like the girl he's with is just there until he finds something better. I mean, she's good... but he's a nitpicker. There's all these little things he doesn't like. So he just keeps moving on towards what he think will be a better relationship... although deep inside he still knows that he was better off in the first place and sometimes he wishes he could just accept that. |

| GWAR – The Road Behind Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
Well the tune (at least in the beginning) is clearly parodying Guns 'n' Roses to some extent, but the song has more of a deeper meaning to me. The first stanza is kind of like... what he does. He's Oderus. He's smoking crack and killing roadies. Making money, and at the same time a he's also making a general mess of things. You know, he's a crazy fucking barbaric alien rockstar. It's just what he does. It's his life. It's become monotonous and he doesn't really care. (Walking around in a stupor.) It's exampled in how he said he puked on the contract and cancelled a show. In the part labelled as "Chorus" he appears to be talking about someone special who was originally just a member of the countless crowd's he's mercilessly slaughtered. They were just a face in the crowd (wattle flapping on turkey farm) until he noticed her and "scraped [her] up". In Beefcake's part, he's kind of like the internal monologue of the character. (presumably Oderus, or possibly even the entirety of GWAR as a collective) He's reflecting on the whole tour. The classic band perspective, involving how they just keep moving. In the next part (Well there you have it baby) the character seems to be explaining to "her" how he does all this crazy GWAR shit, but on the inside he's really just a sensitive guy and he really tries to be a good person. Again, the chorus. "And while the wheels keep rolling". The tour goes on. And despite this reflection... he just goes back to being a member of GWAR. And possibly even drags this person along with him into his toilet of an existance. "Now baby quit yer crying; Put those clown britches on." As if it's just something he has to do. His own personal duty, lament it though he may. That's just my take on it really. It makes sense if you just take the time to listen to the song and read the lyrics. Beautiful piece of music and a much-appreciated change-of-pace either way. |

| Sounds kind of like they're making fun of grunge in this song as well. | |

As for the meaning, mc chris is mc chris. He needs no explanation... Except I don't understand the line "cop kind". o.O That line could use some explanation actually. |

| I know this has nothing to do with the actual meaning of the song, but the line "I don't need you to tell me that I'm not a cat" always reminds me of furries. | |
