Every Day's A Good Day Lyrics
The biggest mistake was to let you near me
I'm speaking to you but you won't ever hear me
Close to the touch but aeons away
On a distant planet on another day
I thought we were even I hoped it was cool
Your guilty pleasures made you a fool
I extended it all but you turned it to dreck
You keep trashing my name and stabbing my back
I shall not be terrorized
You will pay for all those lies
And every day's a good day to die
Fucka, fucka, die, mutha fucka, bye-bye
A spewing volcano of distortion and hate
You plead and beg me to spare your fate
You evoke our friendship and the days of old
But I know a dish that's best served cold
The gleaming blade a muffled cry
You won't live to testify
I gave you it all
I let you perform
You sowed the wind now you'll reap the storm
In the coldest blood steady-handed
I take no prisoners the eagle has landed
IDIOT!
I'm speaking to you but you won't ever hear me
Close to the touch but aeons away
On a distant planet on another day
Your guilty pleasures made you a fool
I extended it all but you turned it to dreck
You keep trashing my name and stabbing my back
You will pay for all those lies
Fucka, fucka, die, mutha fucka, bye-bye
You plead and beg me to spare your fate
You evoke our friendship and the days of old
But I know a dish that's best served cold
You won't live to testify
I let you perform
You sowed the wind now you'll reap the storm
In the coldest blood steady-handed
I take no prisoners the eagle has landed

The first thing that came to mind is someone, well, fucking you over. And this is about the hate and anger that comes after realizing how stupid and naive you could've been to allow it all to happen.
At first I thought it was about revenge but now I think it's also about religious hypocrites. Or at least this person thinks they're right in a god-like way. Reminds me of jules from pulp fiction lol...
kmfdm's rife with double meanings, and i think this song is a great plain 'anyone can relate' revenge track, but there's a very transparent second meaning to it - to me at least.
when kmfdm initially split (the "Adios" album) some members left to form a band named "Slick Idiot" and the split was acrimonious to say the least. i think the subtle reference to the personal meaning of this song is made plain by the repeating 'idiot' during the outro, and Slick Idiot's riding 'such and such of kmfdm!' to gain an audience.
but, i'm just guessin'
