Let's get sick Lyrics

You're looking for a nuclear blast
You're looking for something that lasts
Dig a hole to china in your mind
Swinging on the vine

Let's get sick let's get plastic

They will never see the morning after
They don't see the fallout disaster
I'm walking through the mud
And getting stuck for you

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

My interpretation:

It's about partying really heavy and finding someone who can keep up.

"You're looking for a nuclear blast" - A super heavy intoxication

"You're looking for something that lasts" - Someone who can tolerate the same copious amount of ingestion that you can

"Dig a hole to china in your mind" - Kill some brain cells and put a big hole in your head.

"Swinging on the vine" - Vines/Grapes/Alcohol/Drinking

"Let's get sick let's get plastic" - Let's drink until we puke or just plain get wasted. At first I thought she was saying "Let's get blasted".

"They will never see the morning after" - Blackout drunk. They'd be dead by now with the amount we've had.

"They don't see the fallout disaster I'm walking through the mud And getting stuck for you"

No idea. Anyone else? Maybe "walking through the mud" is the feeling of slowing down when you drink a ton (which I believe the band did quite a lot during this era). Maybe "getting stuck for you" means she's finding a connection with someone who can party as hard as her.

This is how I always took it. Never thought of it a different way. Basically, "if you're looking for someone to party hard with, I can drink you under the table... let's go!" :D

I am almost frightened to post due to your happy-go-lucky user name :) I am guessin you plan on paying homage to the porcelain gawd. Been there. Done that. And it ain't a pretty sight.
