The TV, she talks to me Breaking news and building walls Selling me what I don't need I never knew soap made you taller
So I'm riding (away) Hiding (away) So much talk, it makes no sense at all My senses have gone AWOL
GUITAR SOLO
There's a downbeat, fuzzy, stoner rock vibe to this song that I really wish they'd return to. Really great guitar tones too. Wish they'd bring this one back into the set on a semi-regular basis.

Bring it on cos I'm no victim.
Love how this sounds like it was written in 5 minutes - like Glorified G it barely hangs together as a song, and generally struggles as a song live, but that makes it attractive. The solo burns.

i don't get the hate for this song... i would put this in the upper tier of songs on Riot Act... up there with can't keep, cropduster, get right, and all or none.
actually... i need to listen to Riot Act again, now that i'm thinking about it, it has some great songs on it.
Its a a great song that could , or should, have been amazing. The studio version sounds very good, those guitars...that solo!! Mike is amazing here...im not sure about Eddie´s vocals though...
And i fucking love the last part, were he sings :
It doesn't hurt,when I bleed But my memories they eat me I've seen it all before, Bring it on cause I'm no victim
My girlfriend's favorite song off the album......myself, I just can't get into it. It's ok, but not much more than that for me......of course, I'm probably the only person here who isn't fond of "Riot Act".

I like it, but it ranks at the bottom of the catalog for me

Love this song and agree it needs to make a return to more set lists in the near future. I remember hearing it for the first time and thinking there was something wrong with my headphones because of the fuzz. Such a great guitar solo.

Great description. I think this may have been the song Jeff described as having a "Guided by Voices vibe" around the time of its release. Definitely one of those PJ tunes that sneaks up on you.

Absolutely.
I love this song, and definitely in my top 5 on RA (Can't Keep, Help Help, Ghost, Green Disease, All Or None).
