Shenanigans

Shenanigans
1. Suffocate

Obviously, the song is about an addiction and how it is destroying your life - it destroys your body, your social life and your will to live. You want to quit but then go back to it again. And you realize that one day you will suffocate from it all.

Possibly, the idea of suffocating from an alcohol addiction comes not only from the emotional desperation, but also from the fact that sometimes alcoholics actually die from "drowning" in their own vomit. They pass out and start throwing up while being unconscious and this sometimes causes asphyxiation from choking on one's own puke. Of course, this is not an everyday thing, but it does happen, and since the narrator mentions that he's "feeling like a salad in his puke", he might be referring to the possibility of physically suffocating.

To a point the song is simply about death - realizing that one day you will suffocate, that one day your addiction will kill you.



2. Desensitized

this song means that you can kill youself and i wont care. its basically saying that you can do bad things to yourself and i wont care.its like showing no sensitivity to anyone.




3. You Lied

About how see-through people can be sometimes


4. Outsider

This is a fantastic cover. It's about going to a new place and being rejected but mainly because they don't know what it was like where you were from. they've never experienced anything like you have (im an outsider, outside of everything, everything you know..) i know because this describes my life %100



5. Don't Wanna Fall in Love

This is a song about not wanting to be bound by a 'second half'; love to them is a waste of time.



6. Espionage

an instrumental made for an Austin Powers film.
The song is a kick-ass spy theme!



7. I Wanna Be On TV
This is a cover of a song by Fang from their 1995 album Landshark/Where the Wild Things Are.


8. Scumbag

This song describes a type of people that act incredibly friendly, come hugging you with a smile and telling you about their plans and about how great their life is. Most of the time they don't genuinely care about anyone, they just pretend to be your friend because they need someone to listen to their boasting. When they don't need you anymore they leave, but then come around again when they "run out of friends".

The narrator is irritated because he had to encounter one of those people again and so he's asking them why the hell they showed up, "what's the special occasion?" No one wants them around because whenever they open their mouth it's "the same thing again and again".

The song also appears in the American Pie - 2 Soundtrack (2001).




9. Tired of Waiting

This is a romance song originally by the Kinks.


10. Sick of Me
The narrator's words are directed towards his partner. They have probably been in a relationship for some time and now it's not going as well as it should anymore. He's describing various aspects of his relationship that he believes his partner is tired of and keeps repeating "you're sick of me". First he's asking: "am I losing you?" They're still trying to make their relationship work, but it's obviously long been doomed to fall apart, and he doesn't understand why his partner won't just admit that they're sick of him. All the lies and tension are getting on his nerves and in the end he says "I'm sick of you too" - there is no point in going on like this anymore.

11. Rotting

Rotting is about someone who knows that their end is coming, and has basically given up to it. They can't do anything about it, and they are so far gone that there's no emotion left to show about their dying. They don't to want to try to stop it. "Black rose of death in my fist I clutch. Thorns shred my fingertips and drips toxic blood." He's not willing to let go of the thing that's killing him.



12. Do Da Da

This song is a part of the legend about a studio mix up that gave the name to the song Stuck with Me from Insomniac, and left Do Da Da with no title. Supposedly, the name "Stuck with Me" was given to the song by mistake - someone in the studio wrote the title on the demo, and the band then decided to keep the name since they found it fitting. Do Da Da was the original owner of that title, so the band had to think of another name for this song, and they decided to give it a meaningless title "Do Da Da".

In the song the narrator is talking about a person who is/was very devoted to him in a relationship. He realizes how much they've sacrificed to be a good friend for him and support him through the hard times. Now he's saying that by being so selfless and devoted they have drowned in the negativity of his life and now they're stuck with him and all of his issues.

13. On The Wagon

It's a simple, melodic song about the narrator trying to straighten up and clean up his act for the one he loves.


14. Ha Ha You're Dead

To me this song is about a bully who died and the victim is finally happy " Ha Ha your dead and I'm so happy , You were an A**hole and now your gone and when your ship is going down I'll stand out and watch you drown Ha Ha your Dead Ha Ha your dead" This is pretty harsh so it must have been about a bully who died.
