Ever known any "anal retentive" people?

I think this song is about people who take themselves too seriously. They get all butt-hurt if you jokingly insult them. It gets annoying.

I agree with you and like I said before they seem really pissed about something...

Re: Ever known any "anal retentive" people?

I love this song. Him screaming 'Fuck YOUUUUUUUUUUUUU' at the beginning sends me into convulsions of pleasure. Absolutely brilliant.

IMO, the song's about censorship and conformity.

"I can't say what I want to, even if I'm not serious." - Censorship

"People tell me what to say, what to think, and what to play." - Censorship / Conformity (i.e., some bands start catering to the mainstream MTV pop-generation, etc., due to fans telling them 'I think you would be better if you did this...'. Stuff like that.)

Just an opinion.

*EDIT* Also notice in the video, the band members are wearing large boards with the 'Parental Advisory' label. They also have electrical tape covering their mouths, which, to me, blatantly hints at the censorship aspect. You can see the video here:
