  • Thumb up if you are a straight/gay guy who has a crush on Max Bemis. Just to out-do the guy with leading likes.

  • Metaphors? Symbolism? Maybe... Just maybe... A cat is just a cat, and a song is just a song.

  • It's my favoret sone

  • i love that say anything is...smart? i think that's the right way to describe it

  • @teacherofcrazy I think of them is intellectually melancholic.

  • It's a metaphor for racism...

  • is the first verse "i watch my yellow cat

    invade my red cat in the yard

    the feline war has raged for years

    so i assume it�d be too hard

    for me to drive my foot between them

    i would never risk the scratch

    just to prove to one or both of them

    a cat is just a cat"

    pertaining to schrodingers analytic quantum physics? basically explaining satiring the lack of importance of the thought experience itself? make sense?

  • he watches everything happening all this bad shit going on and he doesnt have the power to get up and stop anything hense the red cat and yellow cat fighting in the yard. every lines he describes something he refuses to control or stop.basiclly he just wrote a song about how he truely felt which was empty and lifeless.

  • no this song is about how he just doesnt give a fuck about his life.it is literal.but he uses metaphors to describe how he is feeling about his life just being empty.i love sayanything mostly because if your not intelligent you wont understand most of his songs.hes brilliant.

  • I think the song is more literal than people make it out to be. It seems to be about his observations of his friends and himself. Do I think his neighbor's son was playing with a shotgun in the street? Of course not. I just don't think every single line of the song is a metaphor.

  • IT'S  METAPHOR FOOL

  • Any person who has had that "bored/smoke weed everyday" phase should understand this song. It's pretty much about spectating and observing life through the eyes of an aware and above average intellectual who's part of the drug scene. At least that's what I get from it, could be wrong

  • Awesome Song ♥

  • haaaaaaaauuauauaah SHIT!!

    

  • If i was max's neighbor id blaze with him everyday XD

  • I watch my yellow cat invade my red cat in the yard.

    The feline war has raged for years, so I asume it'd be too hard...

    For me to drive my foot between them, I would never risk the scratch.

    To prove to one, or both of them, that a cat is just a cat ♥

  • I read the first half of "the stranger" by albert camus to this album. Perfect soundtrack, especially this song.

  • Hey guys, check out the music video I made for this song!!! Took me 3 months, 5 confetti cannons, and 769 takes.

  • Comment removed

  • if anyones bored and wants to feel like their ears have been raped, check out my short cover of this above in the video responses :D

  • this songs about when he gets so fucken high and how he looks at things around him while in that state of mind. He already has mental issues so it further enhances them.

  • This is the most under rated say anything song of all time. Most fans pass it over because its long, semi boring, and confusing on first listen. Those were my first impressions. But when you really sit down and listen to it, and i mean LISTEN to it, you discover the genious of yellow cat slash red cat

  • I love this band! :D They have some really catchy stuff.

  • I put this album on for the first time in four years driving to work this morning and I knew every word.

  • thumbs up if you have a straight guy crush on max bemis

  • My friend showed me this song and I didn't understand it the first time through. Stop insulting the people who like it and shut up! If you don't like the song, then click that little X button on the tab and get a life.

  • For anyone wondering most of their songs are metaphors, this is also one of those metaphor type songs

  • a cat is just a cat

  • hhh huh hh uhu hahahhuhhuhhuhuhHUUYUHUUHUU SHIT!!!

  • This song is sex.

  • I am sick of people using the term "sell out" Any band wants money, they want to make a living. Even if your not selling out to mainstream, your still selling out to all the very cool indie people that think they can buy their way to individuality and think they are cool because they go to shows of a band that has not yet become successful . Say anything is a great band, max bemis a great dude, so shut the fuck up bro's.

  • @realeyesli words of great wisdom^^

  • @realeyesli you're^

  • @realeyesli no you shut the fuck up fuckfacem you stupid dickfuck.

  • he was high when he wrote this

  • download link?

  • @mattchewwee buy it

  • This is my favorite song by Say Anything.....

  • most underrated band I've ever heard

  • I bet this is about ketchup vs. mustard. You know...Yellow vs. red.

  • I think this is one of the songs where his lisp isn't very audible. Hah !

  • i listened to this song directly after getting really really high for the first time....since then i have a hard time listening to anything other band.....i love his confrentational turbulence of bluntness to everything object/idea, ironic, good, important or other wise...but all it does say is i am.. therefore and i am to be honest

  • @smellmysakcfromthere Aren't you cool. Fuck off.

  • @alexsell187 fuck you dude pride is a blowjob your on the wrong end of.

  • @smellmysakcfromthere Posts about smoking weed are lame.

  • @alexsell187 everything is lame

  • this is the first song i heard from them and it's one of my favorites

  • 5 people risked the scratch.

  • I am so happy i can listen to this song and read comments that only praise Say Anything. This is the first video i have ever seen where there has been no arguing.You all are true classy Say Anything fans! i give you all kudos!

  • My favorite song by Say Anything!

  • i have never heard a more beautiful articluation of the workings of the human mind under the influence of lsd.

  • I watched my yellow cat invade my red cat in the yard! :D

  • favorite say anything song.

  • Say Anything makes life bearable. :) haha. In most aspects at least. <3

  • @BakekiriKriss

    Amen!

  • Now this is music!

  • like them both, but Say Anything is definitely better.

  • genius.

  • meh.. I don't listen to them. but so many of my friends like it.

    songs with meaning.. are hard for me to understand xPP I'm not good at deciphering song analogies

  • Hello my english is not the best, and i just wonder if someone can explain shortly, what this song is about=)?

  • @wangliten I believe this song is about how people waste their life on dumb things, or waste their life thinking about dumb things. And about how absurd the things that people do can absurd in a way. That's the best i can explain it. I could be wrong abou it tho.

  • I lol when I see people being anti-popular songs. What do you listen to? My chemical romance? When you can tell me who Pavement, Archers of Loaf, Art Brut or even Husker Du are then you can talk about not liking popular bands. Your "underground" bands are about as underground as the Beatles were. Popularity has absolutely nothing to do with how good or bad a song is, you're attempt to be anti-conformist is really conformist.

  • @iceray0 Admit it!!!

  • @semicolonman Admit what?

  • @iceray0 exactly

  • None of it is random. Most of Say Anything's songs are giant metaphors. You have to be somewhat intelligent to understand Say Anything.

  • this is sexy shit

  • ive had this song stuck in my head for weeks, easily one of the best bands since the invention of music

  • i totally agree i love sayanything:)

  • Lol, awesome song.

  • Say Anything Just Doesn't Suck Monkey Balls.

    End of discussion ;D

  • @ItzChloe1 Why did you write the top line in all capps???

  • @freebird89890 Why 3 question marks?

  • @SilentSputnik It was said with a level of intensity that I deemed needed greater than the required amount of punctuation.

  • @freebird89890 Fair enough.

  • @sputnikowns lol ty bro

  • Im pretty sure the yellow cat and red cat symbolize racism, like how he wouldnt risk the scratch just to prove that a cat is just a cat, like how a person is just a person. thats what ive always gotten out of this song.

  • The little breakdown that he has at 3:10 gives me goosebumps every time.

  • @poopla707

    it all gives me goosebumps.

  • God, their lyrics are like liquid sex to my earsdrums <3

  • @JOHstarry for sure. i love the music, but when i heard their lyrics in every song, thats when i grew so much respect. i wish i had the tongue that would bring my guitar to life!

  • @JOHstarry hahaha wtf liquid sex is down :)

  • Colorblind,Woe and Little Girls are good.... If Alive hadn't blown up so hard it would definitely be one of the better ones...

  • ur dumb

    just because a song becomes popular or a single doesnt mean u cant like it ur just trying to be an individual and ur saying oh its a good song but i dont like it because other people like it

  • I hate people like you, who think that just because a song is popular it can't be good. While it is true that most popular songs suck monkey balls, it does not mean that all popular songs do. To recap:

    popular =/= suck monkey balls, yet suck monkey balls = popular.

  • You're full of shit because say anything is fuckin great, every song they produce is pure genius, lyrically and musically.

    Now you tell me how many of your shitty prototypical bands can do that?

  • your a sankey

  • that isn't logical at all

  • @pilsburydohboy42 It's not that "most popular songs suck monkey balls", it's that songs written with the intention of being a big hit generally suck them. :P

  • @pilsburydohboy42 you shouldn't hate anyone... /:

  • @ciaraniscooler I hate you for insisting that someone shouldn't hate someone else, no matter how justified you are. So grrr....I hate you so much.

  • @pilsburydohboy42 This song is popular?

  • @pilsburydohboy42 you are my new best friend
