Cover art for Transistor lyrics by 311

This is what I've heard the song is about:

When they say "You're a Transistor" it show's their belief that everyone is made of the same energy from the sun (conducting to the motherstar) and it flows through us all. We are all essencially the same...it's a messege of peace/unity, anti-racism ect.

The first couple lines is a showing of their disgust of critics...but this song is in no way bragging. 311 usually get's bad reviews from critics and they're saying it's because the critics don't uderstand them.

Personally, I very much agree with them on that point.

agreed.
