Songfacts®:

  • Lead singer Jonathan Davis: "It's about a guy I knew in school who I thought was a my friend, but who f**ked me. He came into my life with nothing, hung out at my house, lived off me, and made me do sh*t I didn't really wanna do. I was into new romantic music and he was a mod, and he'd tell me if I didn't dress like a mod he wouldn't be my friend anymore. Whenever I had plans to go on a date with a chick he'd sabotage it, because he didn't have a date or nothing. He was a gutless f**king nothing. I haven't talked to him for years."
  • Like their song "Faget," a video was shot for this, but was never released. >>

  • Coge from Polandreminds me of dumbf--ks i knew recently i was 12 when i first met them (im now 13) i used to think theyre were so cool and did the same s--t they did. say slurs dumb s--t made fun of people for no reason other than being "cringe" f--k they even drew child porn many times. my mom broke me off briefly with them a lot. didnt work clearly. was usually forced back into hanging with them due to a person i knew or i just felt i was being insecure and sensitive even thought they bullied the s--t out of me. if i was insecure then then im fluttershy now. dumb reference but whatever. these kids were toxic as f--k i should of realize that went they starting bullying me. they said i look like a femboy. im slavic i have defined jawline which makes me look more masculine (for a female) yeah anyways they called me dumb because i was behind in math even though those f--kers thought i was lying about being polish lmao anyways i confronted them alot about the dumb s--t they did got called snowflake even though they were telling others to kys and being geniunely racist they even excused a pedophile! thats nice. (not) anyways i got better people in my life now thankfully
  • Kodzilla from TexasJust like J from GP, I greatly saw the reference to meth. Probably cuz I'm fighting my addiction to it rn. I feel like it's a song you can make about anything you realize is really poisonous to/for you. And that is the exact point I love about music. Most can and do mean whatever the beholder wants
  • J from Gp, TxI always thought this song was about a heavy meth user using you for your money. Lying to you and stealing from you on top of that. I was wrong but hey we all relate to a song differently right. Meanings of a song are different for everyone.
  • Nick from Elk Grove, CaYea I know people like that....
  • Elies from Surrey, CanadaThe video for this song can be found on copies of Life is Peachy when you put it in yoru computer.
  • Ian from New York, NyMan, haven't we all met some sh*t head that does this to us. This is the perfect song for dealing with thoose insects.
  • Mishel from Madera, Ca" in a see of life your just a minnow live your life insecure" wats a better way to say that..its true....
