Teenage Caveman Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Salty Kevin

I read this song as being an expression of being part of the frustration with but celebration of being part of this fringe music movement of the time. It's one of these concerts where everyone is some kind of reject or outcast (or sees themselves that way) and they all have that in common. Also I think the first line is "Guitars start spinning," not "His tires." I think the bit about hair cuts straight out of the past is a joke, because people at concerts like this would've had retro haircuts but the rest of the song is using the caveman metaphor.
