Hi Mom, It's Me

Queers · Live In West Hollywood [2001]

Hey, hello

Hi mom, it's me

AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!



I know you think I'm just a useless stupid punk

because every night I come home drunk

Hi mom, it's me, the fucking little shit

the ugly little monkey who used to suck your tit



I know you think my band's just a waste of time

those beer cans you found in my room weren't mine

Hi mom, it's me, the fucking little shit

the ugly little monkey who used to suck your tit



Got 5 bucks I can borrow?

Hi Mom, It's Me

Queers' "Hi Mom, It's Me" stands as a defining track from their 2001 live recording captured in West Hollywood. The song encapsulates the band's signature blend of punk energy and theatrical storytelling, characteristic of their work in the alternative rock and indie scenes of the early 2000s. Recorded with raw intensity, the track reflects the group's ability to transform personal narratives into communal anthems, a hallmark of their discography that includes albums like "Grow Up" and "Beyond The Valley." The performance captures the essence of Queers' live shows, where they often juxtaposed humor with emotional depth, creating a unique sonic identity that resonated with fans of the era. This recording serves as a testament to their commitment to authentic expression and dynamic stage presence.
