Flagpole Sitta Lyrics
Artist: Harvey Danger
Album: Where Have All The Merrymakers Gone?
i had visions, i was in them
i was looking into the mirror
to see a little bit clearer
rottenness and evil in me
fingertips have memories
mine can't forget the curves of your body
and when i feel a bit naughty
i run it up the flagpole and see who salutes
(but no one ever does)
i'm not sick but i'm not well
and i'm so hot cause i'm in hell
been around the world and found
that only stupid people are breeding
the cretins cloning and feeding
and i don't even own a tv
put me in the hospital for nerves
and then they had to commit me
you told them all i was crazy
they cut off my legs now i'm an amputee, god damn you
i'm not sick but i'm not well
and i'm so hot cause i'm in hell
i'm not sick but i'm not well
and it's a sin to live so well
i wanna publish zines
and rage against machines
i wanna pierce my tongue
it doesn't hurt, it feels fine
the trivial sublime
i'd like to turn off time
and kill my mind
you kill my mind
paranoia paranoia
everybody's coming to get me
just say you never met me
i'm going underground with the moles
hear the voices in my head
i swear to god it sounds like they're snoring
but if you're bored then you're boring
the agony and the irony, they're killing me
i'm not sick but i'm not well
and i'm so hot cause i'm in hell
i'm not sick but i'm not well
and it's a sin to live so well

God had it right...and if you're just now finding and listening to this song...you're pathetic!
The first time i heard this song was back in the day. It was on MTV and then i bought the first Now cd and it was on there too! I love this song. =]
Love this song. I'd heard it before, but only snippets of it.
Finally ogt a recommendation from a friend. She uses it all the time for JTHM fanart.
God bless Harvey Danger.
The last part is a little off. . .
"I'm running underground with the Moles
Digging in holes.
Hear the voices in my head "
To those who haven't checked out Harvey Danger's other music yet, you really should, they're pretty much amazing.
i would eat this song if it were food thats how much i love it.........trivial sublime
i'd like to turn off time....i love it!!!
good...
this reminds me of last summer.
...now that i think about it i dont really remember last summer.....
This song is so jacked up,but I love it. <3
Everybody says that the 90s sucked, but songs like this one are the proof that they aren't totally right.
become free, become a freak =P
this is what the song was fucking made for. for everyone that feels like shit to agree QUIT FUCKING RAGGING ON EVERYONE its a good song.who cares
Tadpole shitta
diarrhea diarrhea
can’t stop my fingers from moving
my blog gets me grooving
i'm going underground with the moles
your shit blows
hear your voices in my head
i swear to god I think that you're boring
take my ideas that I’m whoring
the ritalin and ecstasy, they're killing me
i'm not smart but I can’t tell
I think i'm hot ‘cuz what the hell
i'm not smart but I can’t tell
and it's a sin to write so well
Stupid song. Unless youre 12 years old
you have to be a loser to not like this song when you are over 12 :P not to mention you have to be pritty damn pathetic, or desperate, or both to pretend to be god, when its only in your dreams, and not say somthing good about the song. :P
Fuck you Reality. This song is great!
:D
I don't know why I love this song but I do. I guess its because I've been really sick lately and thats what ive been thinking, its so hot , ive gotta be in hell.
or 21 years old...
Fucking sweet ass song!
Why would you search song lyrics, then come down here just to bash the song and call everyone idiots? Get a life.
great song
Paranoia, Paranoia, everybody's comin' to get me~! I love that part. 'Cuz I'm paranoid. :D
right on stephanie
this is one of the songs where either you don't get it at all and hate it for its confusing words or love it for getting it.
it's schizophrenia, so you're not that sick but you're not well. duh! god bless
this song rocks
I love how everyone looks at the line about how only stupid people are breeding, and thinks they're the exception. Ha!
this song is rad. love it
My girlfriend is laying on the bed just staring at me and when i talk to her or at her she just moves bits of her face at me or nods a little, I guess only stupid people are breeding indeed. Im going to buy a 360 instead and become blisfully happy
I sing this song like everyday
out loud
in front of everyone i pass
just because im that cool =]
its amazinggg.
:} I love this song! <33 Sing it every-bloody-day of my life! :"D

Green Day Covered it "Paranoia" Not the Beastie Boys
I think Lit covered it as well

First song i ever liked, thanks to my first girlfriend. for years thought it was blink 182 and recently found the true lyrics... this song has gotten me through so much in the past, i really couldn't live without it. it's my life in a nutshell. on of the best ever written
This song rules. Everybody who came to bash it can lick my big fat TAINT!
Listen to this song on shrooms...it gets even better
Chiodos did it better.
The song rules and by the way its about jerking off. Guess what the "flagpole" is.
i shoplifted a dollar store to this song last night! good song the 90's wer awesome
Winona Ryder SUCKS ASS!!!!!!

Chiodos sucks chode
Harry Potter sucks
Im a nazi ho who likes to makes childrens lives miserable. I hate ipods

OMFG
I LIKED THIS SONG
I READ THE LYRICS
AND NOW I LOVE IT SO MUCH MORE
I WAS PISSING MYSELF AT THE END OF THE FIRST VERSE OMG AHAAHAHAA
THIS SONG IS FUCKING BOMB !
i mean, the chiodos version. but still :P
I love the Chiodos cover.
Whoever said Chiodos did this better is fucking crazy.. Horrible cover sounds horrible
Love this song, thanks to Levi Beamish!!!!
Chiodos did it much much better
Chiodos did an AMAZING cover for this song.
Look it up.
Ahahaha.
To the message above me I never
knew it was about that.
Amazing song, and I love it.
Even tho I now know the rell meaning behind "Flagpole Sitta"
Hey guys! I just love this song ::giggles:: I thought I just had to say that! Toodlie-oo!!
The government is lying 2 u! flee the country b4 the world ends and u are stuck with the aliens! ur children will never no wat is to b free by the way i smoke crack and fuck puppies
I'm disturbed that God hates us all.
The chiodos cover is decent, but the original song is definitely way better. His voice suits the song a lot more. But I do have to give The Chiodos credit cuz the singer hits a fucking high note and it's intense.
I like the chiodos version, and YouTube julia nunes cuz she did a beast ukulele cover of this song.
A killer song, renewed for me by `peepshow`, awesome from the first time I heard it, love it .
six bottles went down the drain
this songs good
um, dude? these comments... half of 'em have nothing to do with the song. and its KEANU Reeves not Keano
good song, i like the Chiodos version best though. :P
i don't even care about the song anymore just reading these comments
this song reminds me of just how crazy I am
this song kicks ass
Awesome song. But only by chiodos. Not by harvey danger. ;o
i heard this song in the early 2000's. I thought, how cool...then 4 yrs later, my son suffers a nervous breakdown; and i heard the song again...i am so releived that my son isn't the only one. it was a cool song then, and it's even better now. this song is about a nervous breakdown; and you will live to sing about it.
you guys crack me up.
this song makes me want to sit on a rock, masturbate and cry
i like this song it is really good like a good icecream it only gets better with age, like a good straw monkey house cat growl i think more
This song breaks up the mundane boring work I do. It should be our new anthem
Hey all you fuck sticks i have worked with this band here in Seattle,So get your fucking shit together before you start bashing the band, I'm willing to bet none of you fuckers can even play or sing a note,
this is one of my favorite songs of all time. nuff said.
BTM, looks like most of the comments were of the "I love this song" variety (though the fact that a random person on the internet from the magical land of Seattle has worked with them doesn't put them above bashing, it's the quality of their music that does that).
Toddthebod have you been awake for like, a really long time?
Get out.
I love the cover Chiodos did for this song, it's amazing
after standing up for his westends, the several semi-auto equiped gangbangas let fire upon him, the G is still standing, unharmed. when he says, "unlucky"
Much approval.
You sirs are and idiot.
LOL - I'll put this on when I am pissed off and highly frustrated with life, and end up laughing my ass off by the end of the song.
Does that make me a bi-polar-bear? ;-) If so, lets do it again.
this song is soo cool im gonna stab
a nigger an jizz on a frog just for the fuck of it:]
this song is soo awsome im gonna punch a baby in the face and jizz on someones pankackes at ihop just for the fuck of it:]
"i wanna rage against machines" "feel sublime" .... def names of other bands
This is Green Day's Paranoia
stfu you dumb bastard..... atleast have the intelligence to youtube this song or something so you can know what the fuck your talking about.... greendays paranoia sounds nothing like this, and the lyrics are shit compared to it.
"I've been around the world and seen that only stupid people are breeding" this is so true. The world, including the government is composed entirely of stupid people who think life is fair, and/or has a point to it.
Am I the only person that thinks that the most memorable part of this song is "I wanna publish 'zines/And rage against machines"? That was the part that stuck in my head the first time that I heard it on the radio.
ThIs s0ng is c0ol! My girlfriend love it! More than me! Hehe
you alls is niggas
killerwat, that's awesome.
The correct lyric is supposed to be:
"I'm *running* underground with the moles digging holes."
Not "I'm *going* underground with the moles." and that's it, the end.
Everyone's comments were so entertaining! It's unbelievable how people can be so vicious and attack a virtual stranger. My wife and I really like the song!!
go to /b/ you fags. cuz if you're bored then you're boring.
hehe im fifteen and i bearly heard this song over a friend! i think its awesome!! it makes me feel less crazy! and honestly if some one as young as me likes the song then thats all that matters because my generation is who makes them get the money! so everyone who doesn't like it should think before talking!
Peep show
dad, quit being a dick!
i have a handle on a son.
i stink. But this song doesnt.
The remix is better
if you really searched for this site and then commented that you dont like this song then you have no life! this song is good and if you dont like it, search for something else on the endless internet!
Chelio did a good cover of this song
Been around the world and found that only stupid people are breeding... classic
This song is a good one to shout to the ceiling in the bathroom while sitting on the throne taking a huge shit!
This song is awesome. Be nice.
Why did they cut me off?
this song shows everythig thats wrong with society and points out how stupid we all are.
love it.
American Pie and Peep Show. Great song for great movies. It's crazy!
Shut up legs! You're dead now!
trippy as hell, damn your good
"i wanna rage against machines" "feel sublime" .... def names of other bands
Already pointed that out there, jo.
It's so cute how some of you think you're the only ones that noticed things like the names of other bands in this song, or the true meaning of the word "flagpole."
Reality I am 12 so thank you and this is a hella song so keep your ass opinons to yourself *haters make it famous
like everyone else has said... this song is the shit, however, you're only missing one lyric that I can tell.. "just say you never met me, I'm going underground with the moles... DIGGIN' HOLES.. that's the only part you missed but everything else is spot on.. thanks for posting these lyrics!
Fuck all of you, This song is epic.
All you haters get a life. This song is amazing!
I am sweaty.
check out the version by Austin Hartley-Leonard on iTunes. It's a pretty good cover.
great song, if you don`t like it thats cool also( to be honest i only value my oppinion :D)
I fucking love this song!
this song is about jackin off. come on kids it aint that hard to get
awesome lyrics...
This songs better that a double decker
eeeehhmmm...what??
Shut the fuck up faggot.
They cut off my legs not I'm an amputee god damn you. Best part of the song. Lots of people feel this way about the US government
Fuck Chiodos. The original is the best. Get over it.
My dad introduced me to this song when I was 10. Best dad ever
This song is eargasmic! everytime i hear this song i say my theme song! genuis. everything
And I'm sure Chiodos would say fuck you. It was never to see who could do the song better. It's just a song, Justin. Some people like our version better. And other asswipes like you, thrash our name (without even actually listening to us) and say the original is better. Get a life, Justin! Your mother is losing her voice saying the same thing over and over to you!!
schnarf.
I GOT SOMETHIN TO SAY!!! I killed a baby today. Chiodos sucks, Im sweating the stupid people breeding from over my shoulder while I'm runnin it up the ol flagpole now. I jack about anytime I hear this song. They're gonna commit me! sweet lonely death I am a waaaiitin for you're breath
Is it me or is every single song ever written about...............paranoia paranoia 8/
YOU GUY'S ARE ALL DOOSHES this song is awesome bugs your gay for cats
You all need to look up the real meaning of flagpole sitta. Yeah its a kick ass song, its mine. But seriously, if you know the lyrics why come in here and bash the song. It was the 90's and it was a hit then and still is. Yes, it does reference jerking off, but that's not what the song really is about. Only those that can relate get it. Again, look at the real meaning of flagpole sitta, it is an ancient ritual.
There are a few lines missing from the song. Shoddy work lyricsdepot, shoddy indeed.
wow, just a few words. Go climb up his ass. suck up or what!
great song and very memorable but the lyrics are too dark for me.
that does not mean I will not listen to it another 1,000 times, just feel bad that people are out there feeling like this through no fault of their own.
hear it a few times over the years then watched american pie again, heard it and got it from itunes.
peace - feel better.
The music of this song is great, it would have been a bigger hit if the lyrics didn´t talk about mental illness. But whatever, I like it.
Wtf is with the fake celeb comments. Dude, I heard somewhere that this was about Catch 22. Idk
If your bored then your boring
This is the is the only good song in the world
Killerwat, what r u on about, johnny depp, winona ryder and keanu reeves, NO, JUST STOP B4 IT REACHES 9000 (<----WTF), and disgruntled student, they just added that one :D
Killerwat, what r u on about, johnny depp, winona ryder and keanu reeves, NO, JUST STOP B4 IT REACHES 9000 (<----WTF), and disgruntled student, they just added that one :D
The last line goes "and it's a sin to live THIS well" not "and it's a sin to live so well."
"They cut off my legs Now I'm an amputee, God damn you" I love that.
Good song lads. (In a camp voice) If you don't like this song then you're just nasty. (Back to normal voice) In fact if you dont like this song then dont be sad to go through the effort of looking up the lyrics just to say I dont like it. Personally I dont like Katie price but I'm not sad enough to look her up in the yellow pages and go to her house to say I really dont like you. So for you haters on here, I would like you to write a letter of apology to Harvey Danger and to sit in a corner and write down 100 times, I must not be nasty, I'm trusting you now, dont let me down
Am I the only fucking person alive who didn't know this was on American Pie? I've heard this on Peep Show, but can't for the life of me remember it being on an American Pie movie... Now look what you made me do. WHO THE FUCK COMMENTS ON THESE SITES? I DON'T BELONG HERE
Scooby Doo has this on his Ipod and Crash Bandicoot goes on xbox live just to search this song. Any police officer could tell you thats enough proof that this song is a good song.
I love this song... loved it since it came out!!! 1998 i was four.
Jesus! Don't talk back to your father!!
This is not monopoly you twats.
I'm with 90's kid here, been listening to this song since it came out....actually I think it was 1997. Awesome song, forever and always.
Correct it was 1997, you know you're history well done
Is this a Justin Bieber song?
Fuck off with the Justin beiber comment, are you bent? Ryan your comments are legendary please upload more because they really made me laugh
lovely song
Song Rules! Its a sin to live so well... that's my life even though I'm an alcoholic slut. But nobody knows! Oh except you fobs... YOU know.
loved this back in the day.
heard it in the gym this A.M. for the first time in years.
reminded me of how decadent and solipsistic we all can be... to a KICK ASS groove !
EXCELLENT songwriting and execution.
