See You In Hell Lyrics

Our little room on 7th street is getting cold
And secrets ain't like mescaline, they don't get old
I saw a pattern on a blanket just the other day
It looked just like the pillow you threw away

You were like a zombie when you told me what you did that day
And I drove out to the Meadowlands, to throw our baby away
Time and snow couldn't bury, years of forgotten guilt
Now little Boby's calling,
risin' up from under a Jersey landfill

I just woke up the other night, now I know what to do
I guess I'll see you in hell

The creature's waiting for a battle in an ancient swamp
You pissing on the pyramid
Aint gonna move things along
So pack your scars and your make-up
And give your money to the poor
'Cause you'll been riding a twenty gauge ticket in through reality's door

I just woke up the other night
and now I know what to do
I just woke up the other night, girl
And now I know what to do
I guess I'll see you in hell

Our TV's gone and you've been huffing our pay
And your punkrock band still sucks anyway
I was talking to Jezus through a hole in the floor
He said our time is up, we can't stay anymore, no more,
no more

Our little room on 7th street is getting cold
And secrets ain't like mescaline, they don't get old
I saw a pattern on a blanket just the other day
It looked just like the pillow you threw away

I just woke up the other night
and now I know what to do
I just woke up the other night, girl
And now I know what to do
I guess I'll see you in hell

Dave wrote the lyrics in response to some weirdo he was sat next to in a bus that was blabbering on about how his wife smothered their baby and he had to bury it in the Meadowlands in Jersey.

this aint my idea unfortunatly but when dave went to las vagas for his 21 days of song writing to create the power trip album he stayed in a hotel or whatever just outside of the city and would get the bus into the city,one day he met an old hippie who told him his girlfriend has killed their baby and he had to bury it in a landfill.

I think it's about a poor couple with a child. Wife causes kids death, Dad buries kid in landfill, kid comes back for revenge.

I love this song it does remind me of Bride of Chucky tho cuz of the soundtrack. Monster Magnet is pretty damn cool.

I'll take you one step further, Suicida42. He's so wrought with guilt that he kills himself, maybe a murder/suicide thing with the mother.

If you read my post in Space Lord, you could follow this one....

They hand an child, and it died. they buried the child. a "New Jersey Landfill" is just a hole in the ground somewhere that you throw stuff away in.

"So pack your scars and your make-up And give your money to the poor 'Cause you'll been riding a twenty gauge ticket in through reality's door"

He's telling her that 'either we split up and never see eachother till we die and make it to hell, or i'll kill us right now with this shot gun'

yea....

do i make any sense at all?

agree with GameCharmer. Couple breaks up, is trying to remain friend but their "child" (the bitterness created when they broke up) is just slowly building up.

Finally it gets to the point where the only way to beat the bitterness is to just not be talk to each other anymore. To just openly hate each other. "See You In Hell."

To sum up what everybody's said, I think this song is about a poor, down-and-out couple living in a ramshackle studio apartment in the big city (possibly New York City). It's being told from the wife's point of view (assuming they're married - they may not be). Her husband's a failed punk rocker with a serious drug addiction, so they have almost no money. Neither of them is well educated. The husband went so far as to sacrifice their child so that they could survive. And so, finally, the wife decides it's time for them to split up (with the baby sacrifice being the final straw). It's like an ode to stereotypical white trash, if you will.
