The order and the wording is switched around to make it sound better with the song but parts of it are verbatim and everything was on his myspace in some form. http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/09/03/earlyshow/main4409506.sht |

On the surface it's about the guy who got Bristol Palin pregnant. But at a concert Ben Folds explained there was more to it. He basically said there are moments in your life when you're young where things get real(his example was when he wrecked his mom's car) and you're like "shit, I need to grow up like right now" because you don't know how to handle the situation. So basically Nick Hornby took the idea of that and applied it to Levi Johnston at the point where he says "gonna lay down the law" then goes into a quote taken from Levi's myspace, because basically he's too young to really lay down the law. He's just a kid. |
