Guttermouth – My Chemical Imbalance Lyrics 14 years ago
It's missing this part from the end of the song:
Well, I was peeing in my room and I was staring at the wall
And I was thinking about everything, but, then again, I was thinking about nothing
When my same-sex parents walked in and started squealing
Mark! Mike! No, Mark!
We've been noticing you've been having a lot of problems, lately
And we think it'd be in your best interest if we put you on Selective Seretonin Reuptake Inhibitors
And I said, "What the fuck is a Selective Seretonin Reuptake Inhibitor? Why don't you stick it up your ass like your boyfriend! And who the hell is this Zoloft guy? Some new German, third-party, you want to have in your weird sexual experience? Just give me a Pepsi(?)"
-----This is a reference to the Suicidal Tendencies song "Institution"

Wizo – Gemein Lyrics 14 years ago
Translation (this is pretty literal, just did it in five minutes, some of hte lyrics up there were incorrect, but didn't change them here)

Ich hatt'ne miese Kindheit,
I had a wicked(evil) childhood,

keiner hatte mich gern
No one liked me/could put up with me

Alle ham mich ge�rgert,
Everyone made me angry

also mu�te ich lern'n mich zu wehr'n
Therefore, I had to learn to defend myself

Einmal in der Schule war mit ein Typ zu cool
Onetime in school there was a guy who was too cool for me

Irgendwann fiel ein Stein
Eventually I dropped a stone

vom Dach auf seinen Kopf
From the roof onto his head

Keiner hatte was geseh'n
Nobody saw it

und er sitzt jetzt im Rollstuhl
and now he sits in a wheelchair


Ich bin gemein!
I am evil/mean/nasty


Zu meinem zw�lften Geburtstag
For my 12th birthday

bekam ich eine Katze.
I got a cat
Ich wollte lieber ein Fahrrad und das ist der Grund,
I would have rather had a bike and that's the reason

deshalb ich dieses Vieh ha�te.
why I hated this critter


Von nun an mu�te sie leiden,
From then on it had to suffer,

wenn andre fies zu mir waren
Whenever others were mean to me

und im Laufe der Zeit verlor sie beide Augen,
And in the course of time it lost both eyes

ihren Schwanz und ein Bein
it's dick and a leg

Und irgendwann hab ich sie ganz verbrannt.
and eventually I completely burned it

Ich bin gemein - total gemein
I am wicked - completely wicked

Nur wenn's dir schlecht geht, geht's mir gut
Only when things are going poorly for you, are they going well for me

Ich bin gemein - total gemein
-----

Ein echtes Schwein - ohoho
A real pig

Ich bin gemein - total gemein
----

Liegst du am Boden, tret' ich rein
You lay on the floor, I'll walk over (you)

Ich bin gemein - total gemein
------

So will ich sein - ohoho
That's how I want to be


Ich habe eine Freundin und die liebe ich sehr
I have a girlfriend and I love her a lot

Sie bestraft und behandelt mich,
She punishes and treats me

als ob ich ein Hund w�r
as if I were a dog

Sie legt mich an die Leine
She puts me on the leash

und zwingt mich in die Knie
and brings me to my knees

Und bin ich mal nicht gehorsam,
and (when) I am not obedient

w�rgt sie mich mit dem Halsband
She chokes me with the collar

Und sie pr�gelt mich durch und daf�r liebe ich sie.
And she thoroughly beats me and for that reason I love her


Sie ist gemein - total gemein
She is wicked - completely wicked

Nur wenn's mir schlecht geht, geht's ihr gut.
Only when things are going poorly for me, are they going well for her

Sie ist gemein - total gemein
-----

Ein echtes Schwein - ohoho
A real pig

Sie ist gemein - total gemein
----

Lieg ich am Boden, tritt sie rein
I lay on the floor, she walks over (me)

Sie ist gemein - total gemein
------

so soll sie sein - ohoho
So shall she be (as she ought to be)

NOFX – It's My Job To Keep Punk Rock Elite Lyrics 16 years ago
I think it's telling off the punk rock elitists as well as the major record labels. It's just saying we're here to make music; we don't want to be bought, we don't want to be elitists.

I think it's supposed to be nonconglomerate.

All – World's On Heroin Lyrics 17 years ago
The literal meaning is pretty obvious, but I think he's kind of singing it tongue in cheek, and trying to say that if only everyone would try a little harder we'd all be better off, but even he can't escape apathy.
"I'm on strike against all this laziness"
Supposed to be funny in my opinion, going on strike against laziness.
"I'm not saying I'm better than them
I don't have the kind of time to spend
With slacker types trying to be my friend"

Basically, we all hate our boring jobs, and all that nonsense, and then we all complain when other people don't go the extra mile for US. He wishes everyone would try harder:
"I'd prefer if the world was on speed"

Just a little bit extra I picked up aside from the obvious meaning.

Bloodhound Gang – Mope Lyrics 18 years ago
This song is about the meaninglessness of adulthood in my opinion. There's a lot of references to pop cult and even some alternative stuff (sweatin' to the oldies) that probably occured when they were adolescents. The pac-man dialogue, albeit awkward and funny, seams to be symbolizing adolescents. Pac-man has a high voice and offers them drugs, naturally they're adults and responsible and refuse so he calls them pussies.

Pixies – Distance Equals Rate Times Time Lyrics 19 years ago
I think this song is about ozone depletion. It was most likely written when this was more of a hot issue. He had this vision when looking into the sun which is how we discovered this problem. The fact that he says we got no atmosphere seams like the best indicator of this meaning. We got to think quick because this could become a serious problem. As for blind st. nick this could mean many things. St. Nick is known most famously for giving gifts, but also for saving people. The blind part could be interpreted many ways as well.

Mindless Self Indulgence – 2 Hookers and an Eightball Lyrics 19 years ago
I think the song is a satire of rap, notice how he says "niggaz" and talks about hookers, drugs, and cars and such. Then he says can you believe I write this shit. I think he's obviously poking fun at some of the crap that rappers put in their lyrics.
