about

this here is what i would call a standard rock song. teen angst, driving guitar, slamming bass and drums, drug and sex references....

i really love these lyrics and i really love this song. it was not easy to convince the band that this one was worth playing, practicing, or recording. nick was vocal in his opposition to this song and his reasons were completely sound. you couldn't find many musicians i respect more than nick d, but sometimes a song is just good....even if it's a "standard" type rock song.

turns out a lot of folks liked this one, not just lil' ol' me :) this was live (with vocals over dubbed) from a LEGENDARY party....the scarehouse warehouse.

lyrics

oh can you save me with your medication?
i'm slowing down.
i got a bomb for the radio station in my stupid town.

i need amphetamines and i need money,
'cuz the rich kids smile.
the girls around here all say i look funny,
and i think that's fine...

cuz i know why the bells of mersey ring.
and i think it's time
for us to hit this groovy thing
and i,
i like the way that you move
and i
would do anything to get close to you...
