Hmm, I think this song is different to all the rest, and judging by other comments you may want to read this all the way through cause its completly different to what you may think.
I believe that this song is meant to be interprited as how Mark was feeling at the time of reccording. I think as with alot of his music the actual effects make up more of a picture than the lyrics. For instance, the changing of a old style reccord, the fading in and out of clarity i think is his way of depicting his "meh" mood towards rock style music on that day. By this I mean he couldent decide what he wanted to listen to/ make. Which he then manages to transmit that into a song. Which is where the beauty of this song is, he takes a feeling many artists find to prevent their work, known as writers block sometimes. And he manages to cover it so well using a familiar thing such as a radio which everyone can relate to, maybe not in the modern day but back before the current crap you would browse the airwaves deciding what to put on.
Anyway im slightly digressing here. The lyrics are meant to be very simple as the focus is in the other features that compose the music. If you think about it as a film or if you where watching mark toying with a radio slumped on one arm it would look like this.
Bored, (repetative drone in distance at start)
Fed up, wants to do something (picks up guitar and starts playing)
Dosent forfill what he wants (Not the same, not as interested, Its the in and out part on the radio)
Decides, fuck it lets go whole hog. (radio picks up correctly, song plays fine for 2 min, gets louder)
Enjoying it, but it ends, and he falls back into his prior bored/depressive state. (the drone back in at the end of the song again.)
Now I believe this is what is really intended despite it maybe going to deep as it can be seen with other songs mark has made while he was with us. For example, "A ballad of a cold lost marble" This song is what i beleive to be Marks depiction of him trying to force a song out of his mind aggressivly to put on the album, aggresive, repetative, stuburn as it wont work and annoying. As all of these describe the sound in the song, it also works to a heart beat, or a raging pulse.
This song then leads into Someday i will treat you good, once again we can hear the same style as this song and with the radio effects, but i beleive he may of been more fond of this song so he kept with it, and the lyrics are more descriptive so i think Mark felt it was important to elaberate on this song more than chaos of the galaxy/happy man.
My final point is that the title gives it away, he has all the stress of the galaxy and he just wants to drop it all, rock out and get a lil crazy, as he does but it cant live forever and he is back into his previous problems again, but he was happy while it lasted.
Thank you so much if you have read this far and i would very much appriciate some replys to this, maybe i went to deep but its all my interpritation. Thanks -Ben.
