Additional Information
Song meaning as told by Jon: "Those lyrics are so Gary Glitter, but it totally sums up how I feel. I don't care that I'm doing something different, I don't want to be stuck at the end with no stories to tell. What makes up a human being is experiences, so I don't want to be stuck with nothing, I want something". Rip It Up, Oct. 1996
Lyrics
Who got the buzzer Who got the bell You gonna false start Who gonna tell Got no possessions Got no car Just close my eyes Gone too far I don't care when my head's outta phase I'm prepared to feel just great I don't care for getting stuck with a life of wasted time You got my number I'm on your list Do me a favour Stick to the wrist Don't like that nose job Don't like her hair You heard the latest? Who really cares I don't care when my head's outta phase I'm prepared to feel just great I don't care for getting stuck with a life of wasted time I prefer walking out of line The latest offer You got the time Why do you bother? A movements sideways It's all it takes Stand back
