Overdue Lyrics

You needed it when I was away
And no matter what I say
You'll never forget when I wasn't there
So why should I care?
I'm young, but I know when I'm aroused


You know that I care
You should've been there


It doesn't matter where I have gone
I just can't afford to
Pay for all the mistakes that you have made
It's about time I was paid
I'm young, but I know when I'm aroused


You know that I care
You should've been there

Sounds to me like he was cheated on.

It ties in with Muscle Museum and is probably the dirtiest song on Showbiz. The unsupportive gf is sick of him being away playing all the time, when he gets back she won't give him any, so he finishes it.

I had to listen to this song about 5 times before i started to like it, its very strange. The time signature is reallllly weird, and this song sticks out from the rest of the showbiz album. I think its about him cheating on some one because they've gone away or something. Or maybe its about running away from someone.
