He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.
Just tell me his name
Just tell me you didn't get laid on our bedroom
And was it the same
Just tell me if his dick is bigger than mine
Do you remember the way it was when I was home
Before I left you all alone
I want to be eighty on the porch drinking lemonade with you
And its all that I can think about
Since you told me that you cheated
Eighty on the porch drinking lemonade with you
And its all that I can think about
Since you told me that you cheated on me
I knew that you would
I knew coz you told me in front of your family
And I did the same
So I guess that I should take half of the blame
Do you remember the way it was for us
Before all of the blow jobs on the bus
I want to be eighty on the porch drinking lemonade with you
And its all that I can think about
Since you told me that you cheated
Eighty on the porch drinking lemonade with you
And its all that I can think about
Since you told me that you cheated
Told me that you cheated on me
What should I care about a number
What should it matter to me
But are you out of love with no one
And now I know the end is here
Coz you replaced me
Just tell me his name
Just tell me you didn't get laid in our bedroom
Just tell me his name
Just tell me if his dick is bigger than mine
Just tell me his name
Just tell me you didn't get laid in our bedroom
Just tell me his name
Just tell me you didn't get laid on our bedroom
Just tell me his name
Just tell me if his dick is bigger than mine
Tell me that you cheated
Tell me that you cheated on me
Just tell me you didn't get laid on our bedroom
And was it the same
Just tell me if his dick is bigger than mine
Do you remember the way it was when I was home
Before I left you all alone
I want to be eighty on the porch drinking lemonade with you
And its all that I can think about
Since you told me that you cheated
Eighty on the porch drinking lemonade with you
And its all that I can think about
Since you told me that you cheated on me
I knew that you would
I knew coz you told me in front of your family
And I did the same
So I guess that I should take half of the blame
Do you remember the way it was for us
Before all of the blow jobs on the bus
I want to be eighty on the porch drinking lemonade with you
And its all that I can think about
Since you told me that you cheated
Eighty on the porch drinking lemonade with you
And its all that I can think about
Since you told me that you cheated
Told me that you cheated on me
What should I care about a number
What should it matter to me
But are you out of love with no one
And now I know the end is here
Coz you replaced me
Just tell me his name
Just tell me you didn't get laid in our bedroom
Just tell me his name
Just tell me if his dick is bigger than mine
Just tell me his name
Just tell me you didn't get laid in our bedroom
Just tell me his name
Just tell me you didn't get laid on our bedroom
Just tell me his name
Just tell me if his dick is bigger than mine
Tell me that you cheated
Tell me that you cheated on me

Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.
Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.
The Night We Met
Lord Huron
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
I think it sounds like "I always knew I'd end up with no one"
I love this song...however awkward it is, it needs to be, because life is awkward and random like this. You can tell the guy is really hurt by the break-up and he has very genuine, very HUMAN thoughts. C'mon, when your girlfriend is cheating on you - you don't think "I guess she needs space from me...", you think "Is his dick bigger than mine?" And you can tell that his future ("eighty on the porch..with you") with the girl all came crashing down, when she tells him the truth. And now he has nothing to live for ("the end is near"). It's a funny/sad song at once. A bit whimsical. Very Wheatus.
omg this song is like my relationship in a nutshell which is in kinda a rut but this song makes me laugh about that its like seriously all you really do think about is whats this dudes name and is his dick bigger than mine lol. and although your mad your like i still love you and wanna be with you when im old :( its depressing but funny
So funny story... I love their song teenage dirtbag, right? who doesn't? So I was listening to this song when hanging out with one of my friends and her mom overheard and she told us to turn it off and we were like "lol why". She goes on to tell us about this song, apparently back when they were in school, my friend's mom cheated on the lead singer of Wheatus.... he wrote this song about it. So im proud to know the woman that this beautifully awkward and hilarious song is aimed at. :)
I'm obviously doing something wrong if it would compel you to cheat. I thought you would be the one i would grow old with but your too busy sucking off someone else's lemonade.
Thats my interpretation, short but whatever.
