Awesome song. Got turned on to Social Distortion back in the 80's. I went through so many fads because I like so many different things but I will tell you...Social Distortion is the best. Bar none. Rock on. Mike, you are the best.
That right Ness You think people stab you in the back on the west coast come over to the east coast. The people here walk around with the knives in their backs and call them sovereigns.Tattoos wearers are fucking pussy's. Hey pal take a look at the J.A Henkles in my back mo foo! Keep talking on your cell phones.. ZIPPPP...THANGGG! Hey theres a knife in my back..We fucking love it here.. !...I'm keeping it.. Fucking maggots can't look you in the face and tell you . They are cowards hiding.
I love that everyone claims this song is a shot at the descendents when Mike Ness clearly states the song is about someone in Orange County... None of the descendents live in orange county and didn't live there when the song was written... the similarity in riffs is just a coincidence.. there is only so much that can be done on a guitar
yeh man i tell ya..this band helpd open my eyes 2 alot of real things when i was heavy in the addiction..gotta love social d n mike ness...one of the greatest
Okay--Cause there are a bunch of youtubers smacking NESS down saying NESS stole this from the Descendants---Hmmmm....If this is true what you say, it is the OPPOSITE.
mike ness is genuine, hes been thru a lot and has good advice to give, hes kinda like the johny cash of punk rock, the tough grandpa figure wholl set your wrong ways straight
@Grimeyhoob......well put man

Same shit as usual,Donny burning bridges and trashing people behind their backs. He's notorious around So. Cal. for it.

Mike wrote "get the time" and gave it to his "friend" and was not given any credit. both versions are really good.

Maybe this song was about a Descendents member, and the mimicry is a FUCK YOU to them.

A good song, albeit ominously close to 'Get the Time.' I doubt it was intentional on Mike Ness' part though.
