What's with these homies, dissin' my girl
Why do they gotta front
What did we ever do to these guysi
That made them so violent
Woo-hoo, but you know I'm yours
Woo-hoo, and I know you're mine
Woo-hoo, and that's for all time
Woo-ee-oo I look just like Buddy Holly
Oh-oh, and you're Mary Tyler Moore
I don't care what they say about us anyway
I don't care 'bout that
Don't you ever fear, I'm always there
I know that you need help
Your tongue is twisted, your eyes are slit
You need a guardian
Woo-hoo, but you know I'm yours
Woo-hoo, and I know you're mine
Woo-hoo, and that's for all time
Woo-ee-oo I look just like Buddy Holly
Oh-oh, and you're Mary Tyler Moore
I don't care what they say about us anyway
I don't care 'bout that
Bang! Bang a knock on the door
another big bang and your down on the floori
Oh no! what do I do?
Don't look know but I lost my shoe
I can't run and I can't kick
What's a matter babe are you feelin' sick?
what's a matter, what's a matter, what's a matter you?
What's a matter babe, are you feelin' blue? oh-oh!
Why do they gotta front
What did we ever do to these guysi
That made them so violent
Woo-hoo, but you know I'm yours
Woo-hoo, and I know you're mine
Woo-hoo, and that's for all time
Woo-ee-oo I look just like Buddy Holly
Oh-oh, and you're Mary Tyler Moore
I don't care what they say about us anyway
I don't care 'bout that
Don't you ever fear, I'm always there
I know that you need help
Your tongue is twisted, your eyes are slit
You need a guardian
Woo-hoo, but you know I'm yours
Woo-hoo, and I know you're mine
Woo-hoo, and that's for all time
Woo-ee-oo I look just like Buddy Holly
Oh-oh, and you're Mary Tyler Moore
I don't care what they say about us anyway
I don't care 'bout that
Bang! Bang a knock on the door
another big bang and your down on the floori
Oh no! what do I do?
Don't look know but I lost my shoe
I can't run and I can't kick
What's a matter babe are you feelin' sick?
what's a matter, what's a matter, what's a matter you?
What's a matter babe, are you feelin' blue? oh-oh!

Rivers has previously stated this song is about an Asian, so this is fairly obvious; because she is Asian, they are persecuting her.
Woo-hoo, but you know I'm yours
Woo-hoo, and I know you're mine
Woo-hoo, and that's for all time
Regardless of racial differences, they will still be together. And forever will they be together.
Woo-ee-oo I look just like Buddy Holly
Oh-oh, and you're Mary Tyler Moorei
I don't care what they say about us anyway
I don't care 'bout that
Probably just saying that they aretwo entirely different people, as Buddy Holly was a famous musical guy and Mary Tyle Moore was a television actress, and because of these differences people are saying bad things about them. Rivers, however, doesn't care. This is a hard verse to decipher.
Don't you ever fear, I'm always there
I know that you need help
Your tongue is twisted, your eyes are slit
You need a guardian
She's fearing hate crimes against her, but he is her "guardian" and will be willing to help. This also states her Asian qualities, as her tongue is twisted because she has an asian accent and Asian people typically hae slit-like eyes.
Woo-hoo, but you know I'm yours
Woo-hoo, and I know you're mine
Woo-hoo, and that's for all time
Already talked about this.
Woo-ee-oo I look just like Buddy Holly
Oh-oh, and you're Mary Tyler Moorei
I don't care what they say about us anyway
I don't care 'bout that
Bang! Bang a knock on the door
another big bang and your down on the floori
Oh no! what do I do?
Don't look know but I lost my shoe
I can't run and I can't kick
What's a matter babe are you feelin' sick?
what's a matter, what's a matter, what's a matter you?
What's a matter babe, are you feelin' blue? oh-oh!
By now, the crime against her has been committed; however, Rivers is there to help. With that said, he's fairly ineffective in helping her. As such, he is confused in what to do.Because of this crime,she is awfully sad, and Rivers aasks about this continuously.
Youre tounge is twisted your eyes are slit!
Something like that anyways..
I dunno who buddy holley is..
hahahaha. O Rivers....
how love thee.
That makes me sound like
a huge hippy hahaha!
But the mention of Buddy Holly is more confusing. He could be playing on the popular image of the 1950s as a simpler, more innocent time. Or he could be referring to the rigid conformist attitude that dominated 50s society, where a mixed-race couple or even friendship wouldn't have been socially accepted. Or it could just be that Buddy Holly looks like a nerd.
Whatever, all I know is this song is awesome. It's one of the theme songs of my life, and it's also the first Weezer song I ever heard.
