Blink-182 – Dysentery Gary

• 0
  My Interpretation:Okay, the last verse when he says "where's my dog" (obviously not doll), I don't think that those are silly lyrics talking about fucking his dog. Although they have that stupid Fuck a Dog song, I don't think that's what they're talking about in this song.
  
  I think it just means he can't get the girl, so he just wants to chill with his dog. Everyone loves dogs, and he's lonely so he wants to be with his dog.
  
  You can kinda tell by the rest of the verse. When he says he lost the war (he couldn't get the girl); I hate you all, your mom's a whore (like the other person posted, he's just giving the guy a random insults (because it's Blink 182)); and so then he's just like "fuck it, I wanna be with my dog"

    Actually, I believe it really is about fucking his dog, on the demo version of this song Tom clearly says:
    
    Fuck this place
    I lost the war
    I hate you all, Mark's mom's a whose
    FUCK MY DOG
    'Cause girls are such a drag
    
    Just check it

  General Comment:This song represents when one guy goes after one girl. The girl instead chooses the jerk in this case. The lyrics indicate the contradictions that take place in the narrators mind when contemplating this. There is some encouragement to move on from such a setback, though.

  General Comment:One of the best blink songs, and possibly the best off of Enema. :D
  Whenever the subject of chicks comes up I have the urge to scream "GIIIRLSSS ARE SUCHHH A DRAAAG!" and sometimes I do. xD
  
  It pretty much speaks for itself; I LOVE the last verse:
  "Fuck this place
  I lost the war
  I hate you all
  Your mom's a whore
  Where's my dog?
  'Cause girls are such a drag"
  Totally sums up how (I would imagine) a teenage guy would feel after the chick he loves chooses another dude over him. Hating everything (Fuck this place), feeling like its the end of the world (I lost the war), Coming up with every random insult for that guy he can think up (Your moms a whore), and then giving up and resorting to fucking his dog (and his ass). xD
  This song is total classic blink. :)

  Song Meaning:This song is awesome first of all. It's about a girl choosing a huge, and I mean HUGE douchebag over you and you know he doesn't deserve her. We have all had this happen to us - a girl goes for a total d-bag when you want her so bad but she doesn't notice you and is all into his dumb ass. This song is a FUCK YOU to that guy! FUCK ALL YOU DOUCHEBAGS OUT THERE!

  General Comment:notice right before the last four lines, there is a mellow, quite part where he seems to be getting over his hate and loss... and then he just erupts again, angrier than ever. I think that's hilarious, but at the same time it's sorta insightful. Good job blink.

  General Comment:It is very true. Blink were/are/will continue to be awesome. And, the last 5 lines are fucking legendary to be honest. It's classic "Blink" writing. Love it.

  General Comment:basically about a guy who loves a girl and that girl loves someone else and will not leave him. also how he feels helpless about being in that awful, awful situation.
  
  this is my favorite blink 182 song, it is completely underrated and somewhat unknown. fairly commonly, the only people that tend to REALLY enjoy this song are those who are or have been in a similar situation. im in this situation right now and it blows, lemme tell ya. i have 2 other friends who are also in the same situation and we all enjoy listening to this and screaming the lyrics because it makes us feel oh so much better. ahhhhhh i fucking love it

  General Comment:regos the sane, i fucking HOPE that is sarcasm. I know your kidding. I love blink 182, i love every song by them, from Cheshire Cat to Blink 182 (self titled). everyone who hates blink sucks donkey balls. thats where i'm at pretty much. i wish they were still together though.
