reminds me of how today anytime someone seems the least bit out of line they put them on drugs

I'm tired of kissin' ass
I can't sit still all day
You know I know your school's a lie
That's why you dragged me here
'You're a hyperactive child
You're disruptive, you're too wild
We're going to calm you down
Now this won't hurt a bit'
Drag me to the floor
Pullin' down my pants
Ram a needle up my butt
Put my brain into a trance
'No more hyperactive child
Got too much of a mind
Wouldn't you rather be happy?
Now this won't hurt a bit'
Cameras in the balls
No windows, just brick walls
Pledge allegiance to a flag
Now you will obey
I can't sit still all day
You know I know your school's a lie
That's why you dragged me here
'You're a hyperactive child
You're disruptive, you're too wild
We're going to calm you down
Now this won't hurt a bit'
Drag me to the floor
Pullin' down my pants
Ram a needle up my butt
Put my brain into a trance
'No more hyperactive child
Got too much of a mind
Wouldn't you rather be happy?
Now this won't hurt a bit'
Cameras in the balls
No windows, just brick walls
Pledge allegiance to a flag
Now you will obey

0General CommentI had a friend who was considered "hyper-active" as a kid and had to take some kind of depressent to keep him from bouncing off the walls. I had another friend who was considered a depressed teen, even though she always seemed fine to me, but people tried ot make her take happy pills to make her more socially acceptible. I also knew another guy who's addicted to some prescription painkillers and has failing kidneys because he took too much unnecessary medication when he was younger. The things we do to seem normal, the things we ignore to feel like we're right.shadowwiththeeyeson November 12, 2004 Link

0General CommentI know exactly how they feel. I was put on ritalin for being "Hyperactive"...I'd say it's because I was more creative than other people so they got jealous and drugged me.buckdich1on March 16, 2008 Link

0General CommentI liked my brother better when he was autistic... even though he was antisocial, he was also thoughtful, artistic, a real genius in my eyes. This song always reminds me of how angry I am that society and my parents couldn't handle who my brother was, so they gave him therapy, shots, and pills. Now they "cured" him and he's completely different. Now he's just like every other bratty kid. They call it an improvement, but I think they destroyed him.DeepThinkingGirlon January 06, 2010 Link

This song is timeless, and nearly 20 years after its creation, still possesses the mystique it did the first time i heard it ~1994. To me, at first blush, all those years ago, it had some kind of homo-erotic allure. The line "so that the others may do" tells of something which must be done for others to follow suit. It felt like like some kind of roxy-glam-pop invitation to sexual liberation.
Upon further introspection I think the song may not have an intrinsic meaning, but simply represents a sort of "holding open the door" for people who otherwise might be affronted by this song/band's unusual style. I know, as a sort of armchair rock-historian, that there have been few bands so daring and so true to the sound that wanted to emerge from within, whether the creator wanted it or not. This band handled it with elegance and grace seldom, if ever, seen.
