Cover art for Shake Tramp lyrics by Marianas Trench

In an interview with the band Josh says: " “slap you like a bitch and you take it like a whore.” He explains, “I was feeling a little bit like a sell–out and the idea was not like “bitch” as in girl or in a hip–hop ‘money on my mind, and my bitch is on my money’ kind of way. It was more like I felt like a whore, ‘cause I was whoring out for the industry and being somebody’s bitch, more like in a prison kind of way…I dealt with it by writing that song.” " [http://www.discorder.ca/oldsite/features/05febmariana.html]
