He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.
You gotta have rain
To have a rainbow
You gotta have dick
To have a dick in your mouth
You gotta skin a rich kid
To wear a rich kid suit
And you've gotta know by now I think you're cute
The problem with kids today is they're
Always thinkin' bout getting laid
When they should just play some games
Like stick the dick in the hole
And you wanna know something grand?
The other night I met a guy named Chad
And he liked doing other things
Like playing hockey YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH NO
And I hear you got a digeridoo
And ah a (?) too
Why don't you come over and jam?
Heyâ?¦ remember that time you fucked the jelly?
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! NO!
Then came two
Me and you
You and me
And we're standing on our feet
Then came she
Then came he
They were we
Now we're flyin' on our wings
Into the night
We took our might
Black or white
With the power of our dreams, the power of our dreams
Gotta crack a few eggs to make an omelet
She takes her coffee with a cigarette
She misses people she hasn't even met
She is me and you are listening to me sing
And you've got to want to fuck me
And you've gotta want to tickle my peeney
And you've gotta want to rub my vagiiineeeey
Hey, after this who wants to go shit in a condom with me?
If you fuckin' do, say â??Cha cha cha.â??
AUDIENCE: â??CHA CHA CHAâ??
ADAM AND KIMYA: â??Imperial Margarine- because we like it.â??

In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
best song ever, but it's want to know something "rad", not grand. (:
