The Offspring - Hammerhead - Lyrics

[AND182D]

yeahhh!!!

[mustardtigerftw]

i personally think that the first part of the song is towards the militarys perspective, and when the song changes its in the shooters perspective. sorry if im wrong, but thats what i think

[billymayshelpedOJ]

@mustardtigerftw agree

[cirai2tna]

perfect music for a disco!

[jjtjet1]

its il take a life not oh take a life...

[haloguardianzx]

3:24

Corect lyrics: Bang BanG it hammers in my head.

:D

[TwilightFuckingBlows]

pretty good i think u made a mistake on the bang hammer part thing but idk if im right so good job

[SuperPhoenix100]

1:51 SO FUNNY!!!!

[BartSimpson247]

dexter is so cute the lead singer

[BartSimpson247]

awesome pics

[TNSxD]

Perfect music awesome lyrics.....That aim is really true!

[xatman101]

o yea thafts music bbbbbrrrrraaaaahhhh

[lrohz]

very good song

[bfmvfan121]

i can play the drum intro with a regular drumset. no special cymbals

[H2oflaky62]

the intro kicks ass

[Freakioula]

I love all of their songs...I admire the contrast of the lyrics with their music...Perfect...

[FEDMO333]

this song rockkkkkkssssss!!!!

[bwiairplane2]

i didnt know this song is kinda like being in the army

[crk416]

Its about school shootings from the shooters perspective.

[BuckHunter094]

uhm.. "im just doing what im told" kinda points to military, not some psyco with a handgun

[crk416]

"And you can all hide behind your desks now

And you can cry 'teacher come help me!'"

That doesnt exactly point to military does it?

[hattrick116]

I am the one, camouflage and guns, risk my life to keep my people from harm"

"I sacrifice, with my brothers in arms"

"Smoke and dust, enemies are crushed, nothing left, where a man once stood"

"I'm just doing what I'm told (direct quote from the Nazi soldiers from WWII"

And you can al hide behind your desks now is the only quote that would have a chance of describing that

You're Wrong

[crk416]

It has a much deeper meaning than that. The shooter is delusional and thinks he is at "war" with his victims.

[crk416]

If you don't believe me just look at the fucking Wikipedia article, Jesus Dexter said so himself that is what the song is about.

[hattrick116]

alright, alirght i can admit when i'm wrong, just sayin lyrics point to millitary, no use agruin

[mosh501]

But there are a lot of wars that are not justified, at least for us, the war in Iraq, the war in Iran, Vetinam,Korean War, think about it, there are a lot of simalrites between war a school shootings.

[SilverBlazingDragon]

the "Yeah, though i walk through the valley of the shadow of death, i will fear no evil: for Thou art with me" is from the Bible lol...

[SaltusEtiam]

@SilverBlazingDragon psalm 23, a psalm of David

[firebreathindragon]

OFFSPRINGS RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[zephyrcrypt101]

its very fast

[NDarknesNDaylight]

comparing the justification for war against the justification for shooting up a school... brilliant

[ClaremontCasey31]

Many wars are justified, shooting up a school never is.

[toledopunkchick]

this si a good video and an awrsome song...love the offspring!

[RichmanzHOOD]

when you say yeah ... go its hey go + im srry about all the messages about fixing this video i gave

[RichmanzHOOD]

some of the "oh" use use in this video you have to change them to ill not oh

just saying

[RichmanzHOOD]

when the first time it says ill take "this" life that others may live.

sorry to say its this... ill take "a" life not this life

[richardsiscannon18]

wow he quotes from psalm 23

[goldenspade19]

i know, was kinda surprised to here that in a punk song

[P5YOUSUCK]

It's definitly about the army why other would there be camoflauge and guns.....sacrifice my life to protect my people.....definitly not about a school gunman

[Dizzimitz]

Actually the band has said in an interview that the song is about high school shootings. Theres a bit at the end where he talks about school kids hiding and teachers not being able to save anyone ;)

[lala8557]

were does it say the teachers can't help them,if you recall it says you can scream teacher come help me,if you see the vid it'll kind of clear things up

[ozzyfalco108]

i thought it was great i didnt see any mistakes so good job

[dsan224]

cool video i just hate how there are only 2 choruses instead of 3.

[brandonvanderford]

To me it's talking about how so many are justifying the war and death as it being no big deal and that's it's just the way things are and we should just accept it. Also how this way of thinking is being hammered in ppl's heads. Basically trying to wake ppl up to realize that it is a big deal and how scary it is that ppl think that way.

[Kaggen678]

i want know what dexter has in his head when he wrote this song?!?

[obliven1993]

apparently this song is meant to be inside a school gunmans head

[threevisionsgodpark]

umm no. not at all. And don't mess around with that shit. I'm from Columbine High School and I don't think that's funny dude....

[bulleyes2]

Uhh... dude its probably with war or someone that would sacrafice themselves for a person. Maybe like a cop.

[crumcrumm]

i think you could have done better on the video. =]

[superpoisen]

@bigblake: its about a school killer who kills pupil cause he was betrayed by a army group calles "hammerhead"

[seththeresoop]

Great song Go Offspring!

[KEVINBAYERNWEISS]

This song is great but the video is not so good.

[BigBlake03]

dont think so but to me the songs not about the army its about a person wandering in this world to find themselves

[Xsupernova1337]

was anyone in offspring actualy in the army?

[mekhitar]

great!!I like so much hammerhead!!but I think a lot like me is better than hammerhead

[thedeadratt]

wow...mega pwnage :D

amazing song XD

[bikofilKolacz]

good

xD

[circlekmomofthree]

[iloverandyortonrko]

[rev123theory]

[paparoachluver4eva]

[RcBiscaia]

in the chorus it's "I'll take a life... I'll shut my eyes"

wow this band sold out i like this song, but this band went down a shitty road

[deathuponaccess]

im sorry i cant agree, but im glad u liked the song

[z3r044]

i actually like this album but i think that when "pretty fly for a white guy" came out and that album, i lost faith in the offspring

[deathuponaccess]
