God Song
Song meaning God Song is a hilarious spoof of the classic poem “And did those feet in ancient time” by the legendary William Blake (which was supposedly written way back in 1804).

Grains Of Wrath
Oh my gosh, you won’t believe this! So, the title of the song is a reference to this super famous book called “Grapes of Wrath” by John Steinbeck. And get this, the song is all about how there’s this crazy famine problem in the third world because farmers are growing biodiesel fuel for cars instead…

Frogger
Guess what? The two Gregs co-wrote this awesome song! Their friend Wryebo Martin came up with the title or the chorus or something, not really sure, but Hetson says he didn’t contribute much. But hey, he’s still listed as a co-writer on the Back to the Known version. And guess what else? Puffball covered this…

Fuck Armageddon this is hell
Oh man, you won’t believe what Greg does during their performances! He’s always switching up the lyrics and shouting out the city they’re rocking in.

Generator (song)
The song ‘The Generator’ is like a metaphor for God, you know? It’s like when you’re in a room and the air conditioner is humming, but you don’t really notice it because it’s always there. But then when it turns off, you suddenly realize how quiet it is without it. That’s the generator, it’s just…

Germs Of Perfection
Graffin’s take on the song is like a wild rollercoaster ride! He says it’s all about genetic engineering and eugenics, which is like a super taboo topic. But guess what? We actually do it all the time without even realizing it! Like when we try to make better crops or pick the best embryos. Mind-blowing,…

Get Off
Oh my gosh, you won’t believe this! According to Greg Graffin, the meaning behind the song “Get Off” is all about a runaway roller coaster that symbolizes the crazy journey of the human race.

Give Punk A Chance
OMG, you won’t believe it! So, there’s this epic performance of Give Peace a Chance that went down on February 1st, 1991 at the legendary Hollywood Palladium. And guess what? They totally spiced things up by singing “Punk” instead of “Peace” in the chorus, not just once, but FOUR times! How cool is that? And…
