Lyrics for Song: Take Two Placebos And U Can Call Me Lame
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Nofx
CanÂ’t you see my soul
on the record sleeve?
ItÂ’s going up for sale
as soon as it gets saved.
Interrogation blues,
once again, I lose.
You donÂ’t get to magnify my insecurities.
[No fucking way!]
You donÂ’t get to cite and save my unhip-ocracies.
[Not for sale!]
Take two placebos, then you can call me lame.
Walk some in my shoes, then tell me to fuck off.
My oversized hat wonÂ’t fit your humongous head...
[IÂ’d trade a hundred days for one inside of you...]
Take me to a cave
where I canÂ’t be seen.
Solace makes the heart
pump adrenaline.
IÂ’m sick of being used,
time and again betrayed...
Give a man a key, he cannot not open the door.
Give him something free and heÂ’ll resell it to the poor.
[CÂ’est la vie!]
Take two placebos, then you can call me lame.
Walk some in my shoes, then tell me that IÂ’m fucked.
My humongous hat wonÂ’t fit your gigantic head...
[Just take two!]

Take Two Placebos And U Can Call Me Lame
This track by Nofx exemplifies the band's signature blend of punk energy and melodic sensibility, characteristic of their mid-1990s output. The song features a driving rhythm section that supports a vocal performance marked by both aggression and vulnerability, a hallmark of the group's sound during their peak popularity. While often associated with the broader post-punk revival scene, the recording retains a raw, garage-rock authenticity that defined the era. It serves as a staple in the band's discography, showcasing their ability to balance catchy hooks with darker, more introspective lyrical themes that explored themes of emotional detachment and societal pressure. |
