Supersoaker

Pretty sure this song is a subvertation (not really a word but don't know another way to put it) of their old/early songs that were mostly about - sex, drugs, hookers, etc. This one on the other hand says, yeah, I am still into those things, but I don't mind being a little more grown up either (don't mind sentimental girls - not just the fk em and leave em type) - aka, yeah those early songs were fun and great but that was a different time in my life, I'm a bit older and more mature now so I can't just go around fking tons of girls and singing about it all the time, although I know you liked those songs a lot).

Also, musically, this song sounds like them playing a 10 year old song of theirs, but as you'd expect, it's a little more clean and polished.

Obviously at the time of this posting this is the only confirmed song from MB, but the lyrics in this song seem perfect in my opinion for KOL's and Caleb's comeback. This is very much a song about dealing with the cynicism and trying to please everyone, isolating yourself and abandoning your roots in the process. The "Super Soaker" represents fighting back, and the "red, white, and blue" is likely and optimistically symbolic of the band's return to being themselves without the obligation to apologize or care about what anybody says; because they're all liars at their core with hidden agendas (see "Act like you mean it" and "I don't believe it"). The "sentimental girls" line is still unclear to me but "miss don't walk away", or mister walk away" seem like a serious contemplative struggle to just quit and leave everything behind. If you're not familiar with what caused their hiatus this analysis may make less sense, but its certainly a coming of age for a band that has been polarized and scorned for what the masses believe was reinventing themselves to gain popularity instead of maintaining their unique sound and persona that achieved their initial following.

I think it's Miss don't walk away not Mr. Walk Away. Like I'm 99 % sure, actually.

I think, with the video in mind, that the "Super Soaker" title is kind of self explanatory. i think this whole song is just as sexual as it gets. i guess you gotta have an open mind :). think the lyrics through as if you were a "Super Soaker" and everything will make sense.

Def agree with colterangel... pretty much hit the nail on the head. and to me the line "i don't mind sentimental girls at time, miss dont walk away" is Caleb speaking directly to the fans circa 2003/2004 who supported KOL's early music but became less supportive with their increasing popularity. I'd like to think of that line as KOL making peace with the fact that they can't please everyone (most important of all... the fans who were there from the beginning) and saying... "we understand if you're upset but hope we don't lose you as a fan... so you can enjoy our new music"

and lemme just state for the record that i fuckn love KOL man. in middle school i remember listening to led zeppelin nonstop wishing i couldve lived back then and gone to their concerts. being Generation Y we didnt get to experience rock n roll like they did in the 60s and 70s. but following KOL and going to their concerts has been the next best thing to me

The lyrics in the booklet say: "Mr Walker away, walker away" Which I'm assuming is a reference to Johnnie Walker whiskey.

Heard the lyrics wrong, but wish the chorus went like this instead......

I dont mind, silly little girls at times, I just walk away, walk away.

That would have been perfect for a relationship I'm going through. But turns out the lyrics are much more complicated than that, what a shame.

I beleve this song is about cynism. I do not know much about the situation of the band but under the context of the song talks about honesty with oneself in front of a situation (romantical?) with a girl and also dealing with the fact that indeed: you can not please anyone!
