This has been covered by MANY other folk and rock artists, but Shane once again proves he's "simply the best." The others' versions are more melodic, but Shane's has the most gravitas.
Pull PUSH, plus a platypus is the weirdest animal amongst us, diddle diddle, twat twat, SWAT, midgets in the middle, answer my riddle, whos the baddest motherfucker int he universe, you should, guess, YES, the answer is me. not this shane mcgowen character. ME! I'm the baddest motherfucker in the Universe!
In ever other version of this song, the singer comes across as a pathetic, self-pitying wimp.....but Shane gets his revenge on the father of his ex in grand style
I never seem to get enough of this song and apparently never will. Al sappy pathetic sounding character,,,, then that "C word" line comes along w a punch. Lolol.
lovely.
