This song Is about those children we see on T.V. all the time and people are trying to get us to send In money to help them out. This could explain the "bastard". This Is part of an interview with Sam that explains It.
"KNAC.COM: I wanted to ask you about “Panic Prone.”
LOEFFLER: “Panic Prone” is an interesting song because I’ve just recently learned what it’s about. Pete was watching television and one of those commercials came on, ‘Save the Children’ commercials. That song is about making a decision whether you’re going to sit on your couch and watch this happen or you’re going to stand up and do something about it. That song isn’t about if you should or shouldn’t do it, its’ just about – Are you going to do it? Is this my problem? I was really surprised that it was about that. I think one of the lines is actually about one of our friend’s falling off the wagon, too. I think the first line might be about that."
