Lots of people like to complain about this song and the Green Album. But come on now. If a band waits five years between albums, do you seriously expect the new album to sound exactly like the old ones? If you did, go ahead, go back to your fantasy world and put "Tired of Sex" or "Only in Dreams" on repeat. Enjoy. Weezer is a different band now. They were a great band in the past. That's undeniable. But they are also a great band now. Different, yes, but great. "Hash Pipe" is an outstanding pop-punkish song, as are most of the other offerings on the Green Album. My opinion on the album is that if people went into it expecting it to be what it was, as opposed to hoping and praying for old Weezer, they'd like it a lot more. They proved it way back when with "Buddy Holly"; Weezer can do this kind of music better than anybody. Nothing wrong with that.
By the way, yeah, it's about a transvestite prostitute.
