The band was formed by rapper Jared Gomes, also known as "M.C.U.D." (MC Underdog), and guitarist Wes Geer, who became friends amidst the Orange County hardcore punk scene. Gomes and Geer recruited guitarist Chizad, bassist Mawk, drummer B.C. Vaught and DJ Product © 1969. They named the group "Hed", which stands for "higher education". The band built a following with their energetic performances at local venues, and released the self-financed extended play, Church of Realities. Legal issues forced Hed to change their name, adding PE, which stood for Planet Earth.

DJ Product © 1969 (Doug Boyce) — turntables (1994-current)

(hed) Planet Earth Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's a hole in me that I can't fill
No matter how hard I try
Hey bartender hit me with a double
And introduce me to that girl with the bubble
I'm looking for trouble tonight
No momma don't trust me tonight
I'd be the quarterback
Hike hit the tailback
Watch it on playback
Jah smash that hitting that redbone
Up in the endzone biting on the collarbone
I just want your company
I just want you to comfort me just come with me
Hey bartender hit me with another
I just about had to kill this brother
Shit I'm looking for trouble tonight
No momma don't trust me tonight
You be the beauty - baby
I'd be the beast
Who gives a fuck take it to the bedroom
Take it the streets
Take it like a man muthafucker
Yo bitch choose me muthafucker
I just want your company
I just want you to comfort me just come with me
I just want your company
I just want you to comfort me just come with me
Take me there take me with you
I can't be alone tonight
I can't be alone tonight
I can't trust myself tonight
I can't trust myself tonight
Baby please don't trust me tonight
No please don't trust me tonight
Ain't nothing working
Ain't nothing right
There's a whole in me that I can't fill
No matter how hard I try
Ain't nothing sweeter there ain't nothing wrong
All the pain that I receive keeps me strong
It keeps me moving on
I just want your company
I want you to comfort me just come with me
I just want your company
I want you to comfort me just come with me I just want your company
I want you to comfort me just come with me
Comfort me Just come with me
Comfort me Just come with me
The lyrics to (hed) Planet Earth's song "Bartender" convey a sense of desperation and a search for temporary relief from the struggles and pain of life. The singer expresses their difficulty in finding happiness, despite their efforts, and they turn to alcohol and the company of a stranger for a brief escape. The singer acknowledges the potential consequences of their actions, as their mother warns them not to trust themselves, and they mention looking for trouble. The lyrics also contain sexual undertones, with the singer describing themselves as a quarterback and their potential partner as a beauty or a red bone.
Overall, the lyrics suggest that the singer is grappling with inner turmoil and unresolved issues but attempts to mask these feelings through temporary pleasures. The repeated refrain of "I just want your company / I want you to comfort me just come with me" highlights the singer's yearning for human connection and comfort, perhaps indicating a deeper desire for love and support.

Nothing seems to be working out for me and everything feels wrong

No matter how hard I try
I've been trying my best but still can't seem to fix things
Hey bartender hit me with a double
Bartender, please give me a double shot of alcohol
And introduce me to that girl with the bubble
Point out the attractive girl with the curvy figure
I'm looking for trouble tonight
I am in the mood to cause some mischief
No momma don't trust me tonight
I know my mother wouldn't trust me to make good choices tonight
You be the center baby
You can be the star of the show

Start the play and hand off the ball to the running back
Watch it on playback
We'll review it later and see how we did

Jah, please bless me with the opportunity to engage in sexual activity with that attractive woman
Up in the endzone biting on the collarbone
In the heat of the moment, I'll bite her collarbone in a passionate manner
I just want your company
All I really want is your companionship

Take it the streets
Let's engage in sexual activity outside or in public
Take it like a man muthafucker
Be brave and tough it out, you motherfucker
Yo bitch choose me muthafucker
Your girlfriend will choose to be with me instead of you, you motherfucker

Please take me with you to wherever you're going
I can't be alone tonight
I don't want to spend tonight by myself
I can't trust myself tonight
I am worried I might make bad decisions tonight
Baby please don't trust me tonight
Please don't trust me to make wise choices tonight, my love
Ain't nothing sweeter there ain't nothing wrong
There's nothing better than this moment and nothing to worry about
All the pain that I receive keeps me strong
Experiencing painful situations makes me stronger and more resilient
It keeps me moving on
These tough experiences help me keep going and moving forward
Comfort me Just come with me
Please provide me comfort and just come with me
