Man I doubt these are the kinda guys who don't give a crap bout there losing fans they wanna make a statement an they did musically I like it in this version I can't even tell what there saying, but whatever jus a good listen

i do agree, this song sucks. But on the album version its way better because its in tune. They should do more stuff along the lines of they're last album that was the greatest
idk about this song. It's like, the way it goes is so damn catchy, but it might be a liiiitttle too political for me. I fuckin love 3eb and i'm repub, (and not freaking out). But hopefully they dont get too political with some other new songs
Apparently half of the posters below either weren't listening to music yet or simply were in an idiot-coma during the band's last three albums because this shit (along with everything else from Red Star EP) sounds EXACTLY like their entire track catalog. Perhaps those high school memories became post-college cubicle miseries and this sort of stuff doesn't appeal anymore. Either way, it isn't bad musically and what I would expect from 3EB. We need a resurgence of 90's alternative anyway.
@roushie01 this sux and i used to like these guys. It's shit like this that sux. and they always suck live the singer suckssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

This song's lyrics are an abomination. I am a fan of Third Eye Blind, but once Kevin Cadogan left, this band took a turn for the worse. Also, they had nowhere to go but down after their first album, which I love. Anyways, these lyrics are far from genius. They are embarrassingly obvious, surface-level attempts at social commentary. I don't think I've ever read less insightful lyrics. And Mission Accomplished? This is 2009. I guess it takes 6 years to write a song as powerful as this one.
its just mean to ironic, like how can a real creamer be non-dairy? and he's not against gay people, he's just saying that it's ironic because republicans r usually old with conservative values against gays...so how can these two gay guys be republicans? the whole song is actually pretty genius if ya get it
man, it's not worth listening to songs if you don't understand the lyrics. i still think the song lacks a purpose, he jumps from point to point without making much of a statement and the entire song is not something i'd be able to take seriously anyways, and the chorus is just a big let down lyrically as well as musically. ):
Well every little incident he talks about is of people being fake or hypocrites, its just supposed to make you think.. I dont know, a lot of people think its great, but some people just arent affected by the idea
haha yea.... if you wanna get along with someone, dont bring up politics or religion... lol its so true.....im not a h8er, i love 3eb (saw them twice...) i dont think its that insulting....not many gay republicans....most are democrats
HOLY SHIZZLE. I was at this concert and never seen this vid on YouTube before. I bet you were right beside me I was dead front center. The pushing was annoying tho.
the 4 people who disliked this are GAY REPUBLICANS!!!

this song is good. This is terrible live quality but the recorded track is good. I wish this song was on the new album.

worst third eye blind song ever, no doubt. nothing like alienating half of your fanbase.
also, who's to say that gays can't be republicans?
