Butch Vig as well as Shirley and the other members have said that this is an "album for outsiders." The title track is an anthem for True Garbage fans who are social outcasts or are 'different' in some form or another. Same with the Closer "Beloved Freak"
Outsiders are beautiful and delicate. Delicate because the way that they see the world is not how others see the world. Constantly seeing different from other people wears on the outsider and pressures them to conform.
It is easy to get discouraged.
-Embrace your differences and take pride in them
BRILLIANT Title Track - ties the whole album together like a title track should. I am tempted to comment on the whole album at once when i think of this song.
I have only begun to dissect this. I know there is more here to comment on. I can't explain the "dropped by while i was sleeping" stanza yet except for the fact that Shirley turns around the "joke on you" element of the title on herself
BTW Brilliant title for an Indie album!? The joke is on 'you' so to speak, A Big F**K You towards haters
