Frizzle Fry is not what any of you think. Barrington is the dorm Les lived in when he went to Berkley. Famous for its crazy parties and hard drugs, Barrington Hall is the subject of many Claypool songs (pretty much the entire FRIZZLE FRY album and the song BARRINGTON HALL is a Frog Bridage tune and tells you about it. This song is about all the people in that dorm doing acid, meth, weed, & coke. It drove half of them nuts. This is what he's talking about when he says, "Andy's painting green again(translation -- Andy's going nuts from drugs). And "FRIZZLE FRY" is your head after all of this damage; fried and frizzled and toasted. And to explain all of the "i dont believe in...", that's how you feel after hard long binges -- YOU DONT GIVE A F** ABOUT ANYTHING. Probably the darkest and more creative of all their songs, this one is a bad motherfucer. Claypool uses all techniques of style in this song -- slap, pops, strum, pluck. He's a cool bastard.

You nailed it Heckler.. Probably one of the best explanations on any of their songs.. I knew most of this but loved your explantion.. Thanks brotha
