about

Bend Over, my least favourite song. This was the very first song we recorded (Not Twilight, Twilight, then Adios).. It's not THAT BAD.. I dunno, I got mixed emotions about it.

I do love the start. Ha ha, yelling and double bass are wonderful.

I was not confident with my clean vocals, and to me, it's apparent. The music I love. If I could've gotten Jennifer Hayes to sing the cunt I would have. I should have. I think by the time she came into the picture we were 5-6 songs deep and not looking back.

I do love the "rockin' retro" backing vocals. I love little shit like that. it was good, Marcel would play some mad bass shit, and then we'd go back and tailor the drums to match what he did. We did that a few times actually with different songs he played on.

The songs about shitty bands that make it huge. And how unhappy that makes me, ha ha.

Let's see, Marcel did a great job on bass, Fin Waters smashed it on sax. Fin was done in less than half hour.

I did the first solo, Gary the second. It's in F sharp. I like the riff I wrote for it.

This song is fine. It has a place here.

lyrics

Wake up you tacky slack jaw, that grunge smell makes me sick
It's time to get that ass into the shower
Wash off the nasty love juice and be careful with the prince
Your new job should take just about an hour

So crack the shits, crank out the hits, I'm laughin' till my stomach splits
Your CD's not worth anything they pay for
You stand onstage like statues in your rockin' retro gear
I often wonder what the hell they stay for
If I'm seen in such a place, please slap me hard across the face
It's very therapeutic for my self esteem
I know my friends and family won't love me any less
If they can't find me in a magazine

I can't believe that fans buy into this
Just a real pathetic soundtrack to a dull and boring life
I wouldn't give you the steam off my piss

Join the snub club don't be one of the few
You will accept the load we're gonna force feed you
Grazing like sheep cuz we don't use our heads
Brain dead, Thanks but no thanks
I'll pass

I can't believe you fooled them all

Time to bend over and accept my fist
Because you're actual proof as to why abortions exist
I think you'd better pay for your musical sins
Because your stupid ass aint much better than the Jesus Twins
