One of the best songs on what is, in my opinion, the best Rancid album. I love the
backing vocals--sounds like Lars and Freeman--particularly how they counter Tim's "some people are poison" with a "poison" of their own.
It's been five years since the last response, but it would be helpful if someone might confirm if these lyrics are a direct copy of the lyric printed lyrics that came packaged along with the album.
I wonder only because sometimes the lyrics seem remarkably accurate, so much so that it seems unlikely they could have been deciphered by hearing alone.
For instance, I always thought the first verse was something like
i'm living in my own catacomb
in a room full of flies
and I cant find the gold
however, when listening very carefully and more importantly, knowing what to listen for, it seems the lyrics on this page are, I am fairly certain, what is actually being sung.
But there is one line when things don't match up. It could well be that these are the "correct"/"official" lyrics, and the difference I am hearing is merely a characteristic of the bands performance.
