Against Me! – Paralytic States Lyrics 12 years ago
some references that might be abstruse:
I'm pretty sure "shaved the bone down" references facial feminization surgery wherein the bone in the face is shaved down, mostly around the forehead and eyebrows.
Also I think "By the time the ball dropped, it was already over" references both the ball dropping on new years eve but also when a male's balls drop during puberty. Puberty sucks
