Zoinks!
Bif Naked Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Last summer in Italy during the festival tour,
Another band asked a Milanese journalist what I was like,
Uhh unbenounced to them a ear shot of my crew ,
He says oh you know an angry white female,
What a cop out, what a lazy answer,
Strangely when I was around any of these press dudes,
I was in a very good mood, being a ham a comic, what gives??
No one who has not been in my bed
Laming out with uhh premature ejaculation,
Or cheaters has ever seen me angry.
Ask my last fiancée why I put a knife to his throat,
That was anger. You people haven't seen it.
You think this is anger?
This is mild annoyance, and even if
I was angry right this very minute ,
So what! I should be, and so should you.
Look around you the world is thurally fucked,
Seriously look around you.
A six foot tall anorexic bimbo with plastic breast
Is making me feel weird about my own body.
What's up with that seriously,
Where not completely stupid are we?
I know this sounds like some bitchy rant,
But I really feel we got to address this,
I believe in healthy mind healthy body,
I believe in fitness and wholesome food,
I believe in make-up for those who chose.
I understand essentially body shape is fashion and
Trend of the era and trend of the region.
I understand Marilyn Monroe was size 16 dress and
No one can deny May Wess was full of sex appeal.
Back then the skinny gurls were kind of rackety,
And not vilumptious enough,
I mean logistically we know all this but
In are materialistic shallow modern day society ,
Weh, well I, I, use to think,
It was an intelligence quotient kinda thing,
Seriously or a maturity issue,
Is it truly personal preference?
Personal priority or is it a heard of cows thing,
Ya know, like were all stupid,
Shallow conformists with a low enough IQ
To accept of being shown and
Told the standard of beauty and blindly following.
There is a lack of individualism and spirituality,
An a devote of Kristnia were mascara?
Can a Buddhist stain their lips?
It would not matter at all, would it?
What insecure egomaniacs we all are.
What is truly important in life?
Health? Happiness?
Maybe not even happiness, certainly not beauty.
And then on top of all of this?
There is main-stream media,




And the entertainment industry?
ZOINKS!?I'M FUCKED

Overall Meaning

In "Zoinks!" by Bif Naked, the artist reflects on a frustrating experience during a festival tour in Italy. Another band asked a journalist what she was like, and the journalist replied with the lazy, cop-out answer of "an angry white female." Bif Naked is annoyed by this label, as she claims to be in a good mood around press and that no one who hasn't wronged her has seen her truly angry. She then delves into a commentary on the societal pressure to conform to certain beauty standards, asking why a skinny anorexic is considered more desirable than a curvier woman. She questions whether this is a personal preference or whether we are all just blindly following the mainstream media and entertainment industry.


The song's title, "Zoinks!" which is often associated with Scooby-Doo, is a play on words that reflects the frustration and exasperation that Bif Naked feels throughout the song. The key theme of the song is the artist's disillusionment with societal norms, including labels and beauty standards. Throughout the song, Bif Naked highlights the importance of individualism, spirituality, and a healthy mind and body, rather than conforming to mainstream dictates.
