Their 1995 first official studio album, Use Your Fingers, broke them into the mainstream. They have toured constantly. The band is perhaps now best known for their 1999 dance music satire "The Bad Touch" (a top 40 hit in multiple nations such as Australia, Norway, Sweden, and more) and their 2005 pop punk / power pop track "Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo" (also a European hit), along with their 1996 breakthrough song "Fire Water Burn".
Their fifth and final studio album, Hard-Off, was released on December 18, 2015 via bandleader Jimmy Pop's label Jimmy Franks Recording Company.
In an interview with the German site Promiflash at the end of 2017, Bass player Jared Hennegan stated that the band had broken up in 2013 after the Ukraine and Russia incidents. In July 2023, Jimmy Pop said that he was still working on making Bloodhound Gang music and that the band has not broken up.
One way
Bloodhound Gang Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I got more pop than Orville Redenbacher
And I got more gravy than the whole Gravy Train
When I'm kooky going loopy like a man insane
I won't be around when the world ends
So the only thing that I'll recycle is your girlfriend
Aww back to the side I jump up I swing
When I'm using Knockem' Sockem' ya know I'm playing it to win
See you later salamander cause I wouldn't want to be ya
I''m a chip I'm a Pringle cause you know I gots the flavor
Pop me up in your mouth like I was a Life Saver
Ain't got no soul but I got more than Don Henley
I''m whiter than Casper but I'm not that friendly
Marco Polo you tried to fly solo
Make your thoughts vocal I'll put ya in a choke hold
One way or another I'm gonna find ya I'm gonna getcha getcha getcha getcha
One way or another I'm gonna find ya I'm gonna getcha I'll getcha
I'm a gangster no I'm a gangster bitch
Your momma gave me head your girlie gave me the itch
So scratch it 'til the bass beats fast listen to the shotgun blast
In the oven you'll get burned or in the tank that you'll get gassed
Fake-o like Bacos never mistake though
Showing up painted up fresh from Macco
Now I'm coming in in stereo rounder than a Cheerio
Quick to fill your fix and I'm dizzier than a merry-go
Rock this obnoxious I'm truly not nice
Cause I'm blood sucking evil like Muppets On Ice
Arriba arriba I'm the under achiever
Gonna Leave It To Beaver I'm the Daydream Believer
I'm like Mothra man with my big wingspan
And your the mother fucking Jap that killed my offspring Chan
I'm a Menace To Society I'm gonna fill the prophecy
First I'll drink your Genesee and then I'll take your liberty
One way or another I'm gonna find ya I'm gonna getcha getchagetcha getcha
One way or another I'm gonna find ya I'm gonna getcha I'llgetcha
Di Di Mao
You burn village down
You bring family over we all Wang Chung
I'm a tarantula in your Chiquita
And when you're peeling back the skin I'm gonna see ya
I'm gonna bite ya I'm gonna bite ya
I'm Jimmy Pop I'll tell you straight up I don't like ya
Cause I'm cold kicking lyrics till the day I die
Many fail to copy but at least they still try
Busting up vocabulary is what I do most
I'm gonna spread your legs like butter and gobble ya up liketoast
You went for the cherry you went bobbing for the apple
But the apple it be rotten and you had to eat the scrappple
Scrapple? Pig meat from a pig pen hog leftovers your girlfriend
So I flex to the effects and I don't care what nobody thinks
I'm eating up your sherbet and dropping all your TiddileyWinks
Whoops goes my arm I think it's outta socket
Come over little girlie I got some candy in my pocket
One way or another I'm gonna find ya I'm gonna getcha getchagetcha getcha
One way or another I'm gonna find ya I'm gonna getcha I'llgetcha
The lyrics of Bloodhound Gang's song "One Way" are a mix of nonsensical phrases and violent imagery, with Jimmy Pop portraying himself as a tough gangster who is not to be messed with. He boasts about his "pop" and "gravy," comparing himself to Orville Redenbacher and the Gravy Train, respectively. He also taunts his listeners, saying that he won't be around when the world ends and that the only thing he'll recycle is their girlfriends. Throughout the song, he repeats the line "One way or another, I'm gonna find ya, I'm gonna getcha," conveying his determination to come out on top no matter what.
The second verse of the song is particularly violent, with Jimmy Pop referring to himself as a "gangster" who is not afraid to use a shotgun. He brags about the sexual conquests he has had, saying that both his listeners' mothers and girlfriends have given him oral sex. He then threatens them with violence, saying that they will either get burned or gassed in a tank. Finally, he ends the verse with a racist slur against Japanese people.
Despite its violent and crude content, "One Way" remains one of Bloodhound Gang's most popular songs. Its catchy chorus and playful rhymes have made it a favorite among fans of alternative rock and rap-infused music. While the song's lyrics may not be to everyone's taste, they are a testament to Jimmy Pop's unique and irreverent style.
Line by Line Meaning
Jimmy Pop's not a pooper not a pauper but a popper
Jimmy Pop is not poor or someone who defecates, but a person who ingests illegal substances
And I got more pop than Orville Redenbacher
I possess more drugs than Orville Redenbacher has popcorn
And I got more gravy than the whole Gravy Train
I have more money than the entire Gravy Train
When I'm kooky going loopy like a man insane
I act crazy and insane when I'm drunk or high
I won't be around when the world ends
I don't anticipate being alive when the world ends
So the only thing that I'll recycle is your girlfriend
I plan to have sexual relations with your girlfriend
Aww back to the side I jump up I swing
I am dancing and feeling happy
When I'm using Knockem' Sockem' ya know I'm playing it to win
When I am playing competitive games, I strive to win
The Nina the Pinta the Santa Maria
An allusion to Christopher Columbus' ships
See you later salamander cause I wouldn't want to be ya
I am leaving and glad to not be you
I'm a chip I'm a Pringle cause you know I gots the flavor
I am a unique individual with style and personality
Pop me up in your mouth like I was a Life Saver
Consume me like a candy
Ain't got no soul but I got more than Don Henley
I lack empathy but possess more drugs than Don Henley
I'm whiter than Casper but I'm not that friendly
I am very Caucasian and not nice
Marco Polo you tried to fly solo
You attempted something alone
Make your thoughts vocal I'll put ya in a choke hold
Speak your mind and I will silence you
I'm a gangster no I'm a gangster bitch
I am a tough, cool person
Your momma gave me head your girlie gave me the itch
Your mother performed oral sex on me and your girlfriend aroused me
So scratch it 'til the bass beats fast listen to the shotgun blast
Rub it until you climax, amidst loud music and gunshots
In the oven you'll get burned or in the tank that you'll get gassed
You will be either killed or injured, depending on the situation
Fake-o like Bacos never mistake though
I am genuine and not a phony
Showing up painted up fresh from Macco
Appearing refreshed and stylish
Now I'm coming in in stereo rounder than a Cheerio
I am arriving and feeling great
Quick to fill your fix and I'm dizzier than a merry-go
I am eager to satiate you, and losing my balance
Rock this obnoxious I'm truly not nice
My obnoxious demeanor reveals that I am not a pleasant person
Cause I'm blood sucking evil like Muppets On Ice
I am wicked and ruthless like the fictional characters Muppets On Ice
Arriba arriba I'm the under achiever
I am an underachiever who is happy to be alive
Gonna Leave It To Beaver I'm the Daydream Believer
Believe in yourself and all your dreams will be realized accordingly
I'm like Mothra man with my big wingspan
I have great potential due to my size and scope
And your the mother fucking Jap that killed my offspring Chan
You caused me great harm and I hold you responsible
I'm a Menace To Society I'm gonna fill the prophecy
I am dangerous to society and will live up to that reputation
First I'll drink your Genesee and then I'll take your liberty
I will consume your alcohol and then take away your freedom
Di Di Mao
Hurry up!
You burn village down
You destroyed my home
You bring family over we all Wang Chung
You invited your family to join us in celebration
I'm a tarantula in your Chiquita
I am like a dangerous spider lurking in your pleasant experience
And when you're peeling back the skin I'm gonna see ya
When you reveal yourself, I will watch
I'm gonna bite ya I'm gonna bite ya
I will harm you
I'm Jimmy Pop I'll tell you straight up I don't like ya
I am Jimmy Pop and I do not have a favorable opinion of you
Cause I'm cold kicking lyrics till the day I die
I will continue to create music until I die
Many fail to copy but at least they still try
Others attempt to emulate me, even if they are unsuccessful
Busting up vocabulary is what I do most
My primary skill is generating new words and phrases
I'm gonna spread your legs like butter and gobble ya up like toast
I will sexually assault you
You went for the cherry you went bobbing for the apple
You made a bad choice without knowing the consequences
But the apple it be rotten and you had to eat the scrappple
Your choice was not a good one, and you had to suffer the consequences
Scrapple? Pig meat from a pig pen hog leftovers your girlfriend
Scrapple is a type of meat made from animal scraps, like your girlfriend
So I flex to the effects and I don't care what nobody thinks
I am expressing myself and do not care about others' opinions
I'm eating up your sherbet and dropping all your TiddileyWinks
I am consuming your food and playing with your games
Whoops goes my arm I think it's outta socket
I accidentally dislocated my arm
Come over little girlie I got some candy in my pocket
I am trying to lure a young girl with candy in my pocket
One way or another I'm gonna find ya I'm gonna getcha getcha getcha getcha
I will locate you and harm you eventually, no matter what it takes
One way or another I'm gonna find ya I'm gonna getcha I'll getcha
I will find you and hurt you, rest assured
