The Lyrics
This is about somebody you can't hold a conversation with. People like this are always trying to divert you from the topic, bringing up something unrelated as a curveball. They usually shout and interrupt others while they're talking and they won't let anyone else have their say. They're always flapping their lips like Pac-Man in the video game. And they never ever do what the US Navy refers to as 'ATFQ' (Answer The Fucking Question). Sociopaths like this need to be put in their place, either walk out on them or tell them to SHUT UP.
Hey, here is the story
This is about the troubles you cause
Don't you know we're so tired
Of all the stupid things that you do!
That's what
You need
Ooooh That's what
This is what you need
We'll give you what you need
(sax solo)
Ohhh-ho ho ho!
Don't you get high on yourself
We need a change from what you do all day
Don't you give us lip or crying
We pick you up and throw you away, oooh yeah!
That's what
You need
Ooooh That's what
This is what you need
This is what you need
This is what you need, yeah!
This is what you need
This is what you need
This is what you need, yeah!
This is what you need
This is what you need
This is what you need, yeah!
(guitar solo)
Hmmmm
Let's go!
Hey you won't you listen
This is now the end of it all
Don't you see there is an answer
We'll give you what you really do deserve
(2nd sax solo)
Wo wo wo
Cretin
Shut up, man! Shut up, man!
Shut up, man! Shut up, man! Shut up, man! Ah ha ha!
We'll tell you
We'll tell you what you really need
