It's cold and it's smooth and it's a hard shade of white
And everybody needs to lick the surface clean
But it never tastes better
And it never tastes better, ah, ah, ah, ah

White blossoms to red and freezes white again
Close it before something crawls in
Commit it, leave it, get away, we always drop our good side

Being good gets you stuff (stuff)
Being stuff gets you good (good)
Good stuff gets you being and wheelin' and dealin' and squeelin'

Shit lives forever
'Cause shit lives forever, ah, ah, ah, ah

They have no legs, but chase us anyway
Like the shadow of your best friend
Gave birth to something we don't want to be
We drop our good side

You can't kill it
You can't kill it
You can't kill it
You can't kill it

Eat, it's just as deep as you can fuck it
So cough it up or go down
And there's only one thing that separates a man

Shit lives forever
'Cause shit lives forever
Shit lives forever
'Cause shit lives forever

We'll retire with a turd on our lips
Under a pair of knowing eyes
I'm goin' take a few down with me and drop my good side

You can't kill it
You can't kill it
You can't kill it
You can't kill it

Take it from our drummer, Puff
Being good, it gets you stuff

    Since everyone has figured out that this song both refers to a drug in a white powdered form and to shit, how about we join two and two together?

    Methamphetamine, a.k.a. Tina, a.k.a. crystal, a.k.a. meth, a.k.a. stuff, a.k.a. shit, is called shit in its powder form when eaten because it tastes like ahem shit. And it's also called stuff, by which name it's referred to several times in this song. And it's HUGE in the Bay Area.

    My Interpretation

    I think this is basically Patton revelling in all the media attention about his cackery, and basically saying, "yeah, that's right c^&ts, I eat shit, and I love it!!" with a sort of ironic gusto. He hasn't made any effort to hide what the song's about by making complex lyrics. Perhaps he preferred this sort of approach to everybody's thoughts about all that stuff, rather than hiding from it and making excuses about his behaviour.

    Well, eating shit is always a nice theme to write lyrics about.

    Well, since "caca" also means "shit" in several languages, I think that might be the case.
