[Thurston]
Another can of worms
another stomach turns
yeah your ghetto burns
it's the song i hate
it's the song i hate
you got a stupid man
you got a ku klux klan
your fucking battleplan
it's the song i hate
it's the song i hate
a sieg heil-in' squirt
you're an impotent jerk
yeah a fascist twerp
it's the song i hate
it's the song i hate
black robe and swill
i believe Anita Hill
judge will rot in hell
it's the song i hate
it's the song i hate
yeah a cross on fire
by a christian liar
a black attack at fire
it's the song i hate
it's the song i hate
yeah the president sucks
he's a war pig fuck
his shit is out of luck
it's the song i hate
it's the song i hate
another nazi attack
skinhead is cracked
my blood is black
it's the song i hate
it's the song i hate
we're banging pots and pans
to make you understand
we gotta bury you man
it's the song i hate
it's the song i hate
i'm a human wreck
redneck in check
i killed the teacher's pet

Does it mean that the song of hate is the song that they hate?
Or does it mean that it's the music of faux punk bands that they hate? (Basically saying 'I agree with your ideas, but it's your music that I hate.)
Or is there another explanation?
Not knowing the answer is bothering me.
If anything the lines;
we're banging pots and pans
to make you understand
we gotta bury you man
Is a statement of how Sonic Youth will use their art to make a difference and is a call to arms for more bands to take a stand against the 'song' of hate like themselves and Fugazi have.
He takes some lines to bash people and organizations who use hate as a basis for their actions (Nazis, KKK, etc).
It's like a portrait of the U.S. burning down in 1992, the general feel at the time. Something easily reflected in almost all of Dirty. Brilliant.
The song is about the recurrent "political" songs of the kiddies' wanna-be punkabands, who have not got a clue what is really going around in the world.
They hear, that the president is hated by a group of people they would like to belong to and think they would be cool by recording such songs...
It is the adjustment, that opeople have... "We have to write a song to show our situation, and to make somebody do something against it"
Well... everybody knowas the situation, but nobody still is doing something.
I think thatn is the point, that enerves Thurston to write that song.
@ choqq:
I am sure it is "impotent jerk"! also form the context.. Have you not ever heard, that Hitler had only one testicle? ... =)
@mrfisto:
That does not make any sense.. As he wrote the song he did not have the thought, that he would not like the song. And why should it be re-writed when it would go on the record? Just to show, that it is a bad song?
It simply makes no sense to me..
