Lyrics
There was this guy at a party who was reading from his poetry
Describes a person at a party reading poetry
While I was crying – It's enough, this is no place for me
Expresses the narrator's emotional discomfort at the party
On my way out I couldn't find my jacket
Narrator couldn't find their jacket while leaving the party
I got mad so I stole a bunch of cigarette packets
Out of anger, the narrator steals cigarette packets
Out in the city night, I was left alone
Narrator feels abandoned in the city night
Went to a club where this new, young band tried hard to rock ‘n' roll
Narrator goes to a club where a new band is struggling
I punched the singer in the face
Narrator physically assaults the singer of the band
Said – You must be the brother to a bad poet
Accuses the singer of being related to a bad poet
whose girlfriend I fucked at a party an hour ago
Reveals that the narrator had a previous encounter with the brother's girlfriend
I am evil, I am bad
Narrator acknowledges being evil and a liar
I'm the biggest liar, I make people sad
Claims to make people sad through lies
Who could think that I would grow so much hate
Expresses unexpected growth of hatred
I was never wanted, mother, now it's too late
Conveys a sense of not being wanted by the narrator's mother
Early in the morning I left an after party
Narrator leaves a morning after-party happily after vomiting on someone
Feeling so happy ´cause I threw up on the arty farty fucker
Describes the satisfaction of vomiting on an unpleasant person
who'd been giving me whiskey all night
Attributes the narrator's happiness to the person who provided whiskey
I'm a coward so I ran from the fight
Narrator admits to cowardice by running away from a fight
Believe me or not, I ran into the poet
Narrator coincidentally encounters the poet
I asked for a cigarette though I knew that he had none left
Asks the poet for a cigarette, though aware there are none
Said – I wanna kill you
Narrator expresses a desire to kill the poet
'cause you bug me, I wanna kill you
