    I just feel like discussing this song....I think it is one of the best off of Vitalogy. Lyrically I am just re-discovering it. It absolutely blows me away and really gives you an insight (as do most of the songs from this record) about where Ed and the band were in the scheme of things...and how it all made them (or him) feel....

    Here are a couple of my favorite lines from the song:

    "uninvited, as you know, he don't wait
    funny how he always seems to fit in
    funny how i always want to give in
    sundays, fridays, tuesdays, thursday, the same"

    "i shit and i stink, i'm real, join the club"

    "i'll rise and fall, let me take credit for both
    jump off a cliff, don't need your help so back off"

    "i'll wait for an angel, but i won't hold my breath
    'magine they're busy, think i'm doing okay..."


    Couldn't have said it better myself.

    Totally love this song. Helped me come up with my board name. It was this or special guest. lol I think I like mine better even though the two words aren't really together in the song.

    And then the question is, what is most important, the music or the musician, the painter or the painting, the lover or love? I'd say the music, the painting, and the lover. I like this song, it's a nice rock song, nice to run to.

    you can't have a painting without the painter...
    you can't have music without the musician...
    and you cannot make love without a lover...

    guess that makes them all important eh ;)

    Anyway, I think it has to do with being faithful to your partner, and dealing with temptations.

    That's the same interpretation that I give to the song.

    I'd love to hear it live.

    Couldn't the band just alter the words a little, you think? It's such a fun tune.

    i think like many of pj's songs it's open for intepretation.. but it sure has a personal side related to the band ,like most Vitalogy.

    provably we the fans should get our own personal interpretations, wich is very easy about this song.. everyone has felt temptation for something..

    "i shit and i stink! i'm real join the club!
    model role model roll some models in blood!
    uhh..
    i shit and i stink.. uh .. never suck satan's cock..
    model role model roll some models in blood!
    dont know the lyrics to my ouw fuckin song!

    already.. uhh.. already something..
    already.. go on and solo already.."

    -eddie trying to sing it :D lol-


    i agree about the temptation thing...
    satan in this song can be the music industry ... like the whole album criticize
    can be the music industry and maybe all things that its offers to them, groupies, money, drugs, personal life on news ...
    and they just had to separate all that stuff from their carrer as musicians !

    maybe nowadays it can be hypocritical ... not really !
    perhaps just that role model, skinny little bitch thing .... since his story with beth and jill ... and we can't even say a lot about that ... because he's really reserved ... and he's right about that
    it doesn't matter ... he's a musician his personal life its just his.
    but he can't help the fact ... that his personal life influences his music
    and we just have this ... his song
