There must be something we can eat
Maybe find another lover
Should I fly to Los Angeles
Find my asshole brother

Mickey mouse has grown up a cow
Dave's on sale again
We kissy kiss in the rear view
We're so bored, you're to blame

Try to see it once my way
Everything zen, everything zen
I don't think so
Everything zen, everything zen
I don't think so

Raindogs howl for the century
A million dollars at stake
As you search for your demigod
And you fake with a saint

There's no sex in your violence
There's no sex in your violence
There's no sex in your violence
There's no sex in your violence

Try to see it once my way
Everything zen, everything zen
I don't think so
Everything zen, everything zen
I don't think so
Everything zen, everything zen

I don't believe that Elvis is dead, yeah
I don't believe that Elvis is dead
I don't believe that Elvis is dead, yeah
I don't believe that Elvis is, Elvis is

There's no sex in your violence
There's no sex in your violence
There's no sex in your violence
There's no sex in your violence

Try to see it once my way
Everything zen, everything zen
I don't think so
Try to see it once my way
Everything zen, everything zen
I don't think so

Zen, zen
I don't think so, I don't think so, I don't think so

    i just heard it on the radio and i realized what it's actually about: Full House

    it's from young and wild Jesse's point of view...he's a rocker on tour and he goes broke; he can't get anything to eat and he can't get any chicks anymore so he begrudgingly gives up the rock and roll lifestyle and finds his "asshole brother" Danny Tanner (well, brother in-law)...he settles down, and lives by Danny's rules and learns to become a role model for his neices

    but the song expresses his restlessness, the storm underneath the tranquil lifestyle depicted on the TV show...he doesn't believe that elvis is dead, like, the elvis inside of him still wants to rock and get laid...and the band comments on the show's having no sex in its violence, like how the point of the show is resolving everyday conflict (so everyone can hug in the end) but they ignore one of the most prevalent conflicts encountered daily by teenagers and their parents: SEX!!! jesse wants to flee Danny Tanner's sexless little world and go fuck hot (or ugly) girls...

    ...this must be the pre-Becky days....ooooh man

    ...maybe i should quit watching full house on nick at nite
