Todd insisted on this title, and even had a lyric by the same title, but never used it.
We had to record this quickly to finish it for our summer tour, so we've always had little
bitches about it. We finally got to do a Nip Drivers song, and I think we did a Freeze cover,
too (now there's an original idea). Whereas on past releases Bill and Scott did the majority
of the songwriting, now everyone was gettin involved, which made it really fun and different.
The cover was our take on The Rolling Stones' "Exile On Main Street", though the only thing
we ever heard about it was, "Why are the KKK on the cover? Do you like the KKK? You're going
to get in TROUBLE!" As of today, we still haven't gotten 'in trouble', Punk Rock is soooo
daring these days. Also, the song "Kicking My Head In" was taken a little too literally.
While we were trying to poke holes in "homophobic logic", some people just didn't understand
the black humor we intend to inject into our songs. ("Gay Parade" has nothing to do with gay
people, by the way). The first song should be a dead give-away as to how we feel about those
who take everything at face value. "Little Red Riding Hood" became a regular set closer, and
I think we've played "Sorry" live twice. "So Emotional", one of our favorite songs, with guest
vocals by Tom Little Face from Sidekick Kato, has never been played live, because screaming
for three minutes straight makes Todd a dull boy. "Dean Is a Punk", I think, is about someone
in particular, not named Dean, though. The "Baby" (LP insert, CD back cover) is Todd's baby
brother, Skylar.
