Buckethead Lyrics
got no head
it's a bucket with teeth
it likes to dream
it likes to sleep
it knows hot
it knows cool
it knows what's what
it's no fool
fill up the bucket with
whatever you got
make sure it's something
that the bucket likes a lot
fly on a window
looking through
its tiny bucket
knows just what to do
it goes over here
it goes over there
it takes its tiny bucket
almost everywhere
i'm a buckethead
that's the truth
what I do
sure shines through
and what goes in
gets mixed around
and overflows
and makes this sound
it's a bucket with teeth
it likes to dream
it likes to sleep
it knows hot
it knows cool
it knows what's what
it's no fool
fill up the bucket with
whatever you got
make sure it's something
that the bucket likes a lot
fly on a window
looking through
its tiny bucket
knows just what to do
it goes over here
it goes over there
it takes its tiny bucket
i'm a buckethead
that's the truth
what I do
sure shines through
and what goes in
gets mixed around
and overflows
and makes this sound

i think it has to do with consumerism one of the pups funkier songs
Not really sure what this song means but it's very catchy. One of my favorite songs by the meat puppets.
This album was pretty big on the college scene in the mid-80s. I"d forgotten this song until I got into the guitarist, Buckethead. If you search this site, you'll find the song called Buckethead by Les Claypool's Bucket of Bernie's Brains. Since the guitarist started in the late 80s scene, it seems possible he choose his name based on this song. And both are enigmatic, eh?
