Lyrics To Go

Seth and Marc wrap up their trip around the continents with the Men At Work b-side Down Under. There are undoubtedly loads of strange lyrics here but the guys get a little surprise when sorting through them and the music video.

Seth and Marc continue their continent tour with America's A Horse With No Name. This song was banned in some American stations due to possible drug references but it should've been banned for something much worse... dumb fucking words.

Seth and Marc are at opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to Asia's Heat Of The Moment. Seth thinks this song is a beautiful song about a man who made a mistake and is baring his soul for the world to see. Marc thinks it's a guy who is trying to convince a woman who was hurt by him messing up by focusing on when things were good and then by manipulating with scare tactics. Was anyone swayed...

Seth and Marc blast off into outer space with Europe to work out the lyrics to The Final Countdown. A song that is apparently about deciding to move from an Earth that is no longer inhabitable to another planet that has the densest atmosphere in our galaxy and over 167 volcanoes. Doesn't sound like we really thought this out, does it?

Marc and Seth get the Led out with the b-side to the shrill Immigrant Song; Hey Hey, What Can I Do?. Not a single, but still received tons of airplay. We get a little naive incel action with this one where the narrator at least has the wherewithall to leave the woman alone. But we're setting the bar a little low...

Seth and Marc peel apart a hit from across The Pond with JLS's Beat Again.. In hopes that they can coax someone into a relationship because the narrator(s) might die from NotHavingGirlfriend-itis, they combine their voices into one mono-tonal hellscape while wallowing in self-pity. Tragic.

The guys are joined by friends Tim and Joee to discuss what makes country "country" and also to talk about the Luke Bryan pro-flood song Rain Is A Good Thing. Nothing beats complaining about how dry it is and then taking about getting the fuck out of dodge when it rains and also about how the main positives to rain are having a horny girlfriend and fucking under a loud tin roof. Got it. Special Gu...

Ho ho ho! The guys take on a Christmas classic with the unrelenting Jingle Bell Rock. What does it mean? Why can the jingle hop not begin until there is a snowstorm? What the hell is going one with these jingling feet? Hell if we know...

Hoo hoo! Seth and Marc read through the most boring and useless story possibly ever told; Take The Money and Run by Steve Miller Band. Though they can't deny how catchy the song is, the lyrics tell a tale that, in the end, is insane and was over before it began.

Seth and Marc return to The Offspring to dip into their hit song Want You Bad. Have you ever found yourself in a relationship with someone who is too nice? So you write a song about how you wish they would completely change who they are, get tattoos, and start treating you bad? Me neither.

Seth and Marc talk about the Americana coming-of-age ditty Jack & Diane by John Cougar. Switching between horny verses and existentialist choruses, this song paints a Midwest hell where people suck on hot dogs with chili on them and fuck under trees and opt for some strange words and turns of phrase that you'd maybe be familiar with if you grew up in Bumfuck, Indiana like "dribble off those Bo...

Seth and Marc take on the third single from Sublime's self-titled album; Wrong Way. A song about a 14-year-old who is prostituted by her father who is picked up by a "hero" who paid to have sex with a 14-year-old prostitute. Dub style!

The guys scrub in to take a deep look at Paul Anka's (You're) Having My Baby which has been called chauvinistic upon many other things. Is the hype real? Is this song as self-obsessed as it seems? We certainly think there is a good case to be made...

Seth and Marc look at a song that was described as "racist, sexist and fetishistic" all in one fell swoop; Island Girl by Elton John (and Bernie Taupin.) A song that is swinging for a Caribbean feel and ends up being tone deaf in more than one way.

Seth and Marc drag the proverbial lake of lyrics in search of a line that isn't creepy as fuck in the song Possum Kingdom by Toadies. Unfortunately, they seem to come up pretty empty-handed.

Seth and Marc bring past favorite guests Adam and Logan to get into the inner workings of Lola by The Kinks. On one hand, we talk about what the lyrics reveal to people who may have heard the song in passing. On the other, we have a discussion on whether or not this song is transphobic and some of the lines that are double entendres. Minds were changed! Eyes were opened! Special Guests: Adam and L...

Seth and Marc bring on Kristin, a recovering Buckcherry fan, to rip Crazy Bitch apart limb from limb. How high will the Creep Factor go on this one? Special Guest: Kristin Herman.

The guys give a bit of a death metal history lesson before launching an all-out assault on the neanderthal-esque lyrics of Andrew WK's Party Hard. Incomplete thoughts and sentences abound in spite of his intelligence. Where did he go wrong?

Seth and Marc look past the first 2 better known verses of Jailhouse Rock by Elvis Presley and discover a little surprise!

The guys revisit Billy Squire with his early 80's hit non-single and best attempt at a Led Zeppelin song: Lonely Is The Night. These lyrics are an unmitigated disaster and even Billy's weak explanation leaves us scratching our heads... join us on our descent into madness.

Today, Seth and Marc find themselves in an elevator with New England's own Aerosmith for their ultra horny single Love In An Elevator. We discuss the music video, the complications of oral sex in an elevator, and the death wish hidden within.

The guys unveil the true story behind the 90's hit The Way which catapulted Fastball into the limelight. The lyrics, which seem to be about a couple who decide to shrug off the banality of the normal life in exchange for a life roaming the world, actually have a much sadder history.

Marc and a very horned-up Seth talk about a power pop song for all of the niche demographic of "boys who are into the mom of a girl that has a thing for them instead of the girl"... Stacy's Mom from Fountains of Wayne. Is this song about a woman who is trying to turn a prepubescent on or is he just reading too into things? Or both?

The guys take another trip down AC/DC lane with their perplexing hit Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap. 3 verses about people who have been wronged and trying to figure out exactly what he's doing to each of them. Sex? Murder? Contract negotiations? What in the fuck is going on?

Seth and Marc get funky with the Bee Gee's stalker anthem Nights On Broadway. Not their biggest hit, but definitely up there with the creepiest. One part waiting in the dark and one part voices-in-his-head, the Brothers Gibb go in deep with the first single to highlight their famous falsetto.
