On And On (about You)

Bowling for Soup

I'm happy again to be stuck here again
And you're so happy again to be stuck
here again
Now we can rap about "the good old days"
Laugh at the dumb jokes that you make
It's great to be here and

I'm just elated to be someone you once hated
And it's all so complicated
Maybe this time you can come outside
your little world
Make out with another girl
If it were up to me

I'd like to buy you flowers every day
Make every day a holiday
Carry on and on about you and
the things you do
the things you do

I'm so sorry again you say you're leaving
me again
'Cause you're not happy again
And I'm left stuck here again
Now you can scream about the little things
Slap me twice across the face
Man it would be great if I could

Chorus (in Spanish)
I just said...
Chorus (in English)

    Ya, I love this one too. It's pretty obvious what it's about...the spanish chorus is probably the best part and how he says "I just said I'd buy you..."

Step
Ministry
Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.

Amazing

From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
