I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Look at you with your new wave haircut
Check you out with your airbrush makeup
Look at you
Check you out
Look at you with your white mesh half shirt
Check you out with your spandex miniskirt
Look at you
Check you out
And what's the deal with hot shit head toss?
What the fuck, is that hot pink lip gloss?
What's the deal?
What the fuck?
You make me sick
Yeah right
You're such a black lacquer table
Excuse me? You sure talk a lot.
Well you're as fake as a beauty shop nagle
Admit it, you want what I got
You've got invisible fangs
And Terri Nunn bangs
Your erotic cabaret is nonstop
You're wearing too many belts
And I bet they leave welts
Shut up and dance cause I wanna pop
Get over here
I know what you want
Yeah?
Yeah.
Look at you with your teenage hard on
Check you out with your black lace bra on
Look at you
Check you out
Look at you with your mouth on my tit
Check you out with your hand on my dick
Look at you
Check you out, yeah
Look at you with my hand down your pants
Check you out getting' fucked while we dance
Look at you
Check you out
Fuckin' on the dance floor
Fuckin' on the dance floor
Everybody's fuckin'
Fuckin' on the dance floor
Check you out with your airbrush makeup
Look at you
Check you out
Look at you with your white mesh half shirt
Check you out with your spandex miniskirt
Look at you

And what's the deal with hot shit head toss?

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
