You keep on sayin' that you want to know me
but you never show me your true self.
How can you ever expect someone else to know you
when all you're going to do is just pretend that
you're someone else?
You keep on sayin' that you want to show me
that you're really different, but your just the same.
If you're really mindless then there is no way
that I can win,
maybe you're just one of them,
or maybe it's just a game.
You lie to yourself and remain alone.
I'm not exactly sure of your motivation.
I'm not exactly sure what you're tryin' to do.
All I'm really sure is that you're not too impressive
and you're wearin' a mask
that I can't see through.
Maybe you're not looking for acceptance,
maybe you're striving for something more.
If it's status that you lust then why try to be one of us?
You're someone we'll never trust 'cause we know the score.

    General Comment:I think the general meaning of this song is quite clear and also ties in well with the title of the album "Answer That and Stay Fashionable"

    General Comment:The bass line in the begining is the difference I believe. I don't have them on this cpu at the moment so I can't listen to them, but they are two different recordings so you're not crazy. And once I started wondering what the tilte mean, I got it right away. However, I didn't really bother wondering what it meant for quite some time though.

    General Comment:This is cool. I brought my answer that and stay fashionable cd to my german teacher to find out what the title meant. She had no clue so she wrote it down. She said she looked for an hour and a half before she said it out loud . The title says Your Friend And Mine. Thanks for reading my boring story.

    General Comment:I think it is about a poser punk who is trying to be seen as a true punk by other punks, but all he cares about is the image, not the underlying philosophies or goals of the punk scene.
