Glowstick in the Eyesocket of Thomas Lens (live)

from Barely Alive in 2009 by Retro Spectro

about

We took this version out of the "Live At Nicks" tape because there was a studio version at the end.

So, at the beginning of this song, I say "This song is about sucking dick." We were playing a show to a very tough guy crowd who would say gay slurs all the time. In 2003, this was my way of calling out there dude-bro attitude. In retrospect, it was dumb.

Anyway, this song is about how we were annoyed by all the kids who were going to shows started going to raves and doing ecstasy. Even though members of Retro-Spectro went to raves and did ecstasy.

lyrics

Take your ecstasy and go away
Take off your wings and fly away
Take your glowstick and stick it up your "A".
Because I don't really wanna go to the rave.

I don't wanna go to the rave tonight.
I don't wanna go to the rave any night (x2)
(Wow, nineteen year old me was a poet)

I'm surrounded by a bunch of zombies (x100)
