Chris Cayton Lyrics
You told me that I'd go
far just by trying
yea just by trying
When we were kids
playing Social D
spiritual man on LSD
We were frying
yea we were frying
no ground on my bass and it shocked me
Cuz when we were skating
You would make the metal sign
'too drunk to fuck' said the Dead Kennedys
on your button your punk rock button
You were born in S.I.T.
Vegetarian man no BLT on your muffin
no turkey stuffing
Our first band was called IMRU

no-one has said anything, so i will isn't this song about a real person, called chris cayton(obviously) and its basically a true story.

yeah I too wanna know... I tried to search on web but I could'nt find out.

John's thank you's in CD booklets reference "Chris Cayton, my 'Spirit Walker'"

chris cayton is a religious singer/musician?

chris cayton was one of john from goldfinger's bandmates, along with lars from rancid, in the band IMRU. google is your friend. chris was a real person.

Can anybody make out the dialogue in the middle of the song? What about all the bonus stuff at the end on the album Hang-Ups (not sure if they put another version on another album). Can anyone explain the significane of "the metal sign"?
the metal sign is that thing people do to make devil horns or whatever, with their hand. you basically put your pointer finger and pinky up in the air, and hold the two fingers in the middle (middle and index finger) down with your thumb. ironically, it's a little like "i love you" in sign language. it's simpler to look at actually, just search for "heavy metal hand" in google image search. i should have just said that in the first place. gahh
