The band's website once noted Cracker as "The only band to ever open for both Grateful Dead and Ramones," a unique distinction which is also indicative of the band's sound and style. Cracker comfortably mixes influences and sounds ranging from classic country music, psychedelia, punk and folk into their brand of "Americana" style rock.
Lowery and Hickman are inalterable constants. The band continues to tour (as a full band, and also as the "Cracker acoustic duo").

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
E-g-see-a
E someone please g save us
See save us from our a wicked little selves
E we're bent or cour-g-ageous
See we're drifting so it's a hard for me to tell
I want to make you mine all of the time
I want to be your ? man
Get outta my head or into my bed.
Ei d had a see dream about bb you last e night d-see-bb
Ei d had a see dream about bb you last e night d-see-bb
Yeah we were contageous
We were both covered up with bees
I felt so outrageous
The hip priest man, he ain't got nothing on me
I want to make you mine all of the time
I want to be your ? man
Get outta my head or into my bed.
Get outta my head or into my bed.
I had a dream about you last night
I had a dream about you last night
The lyrics to "Get Outta My Head" by Cracker are a poetic take on the internal conflict that one faces when they want someone so badly that it consumes their thoughts. The song starts off with a repetitive guitar riff and progresses to the singer pleading for someone to save them from their own desires. The first verse sets the tone for the rest of the song as the lyrics go back and forth between describing the intensity of the singer's feelings and their confusion about what they want.
The second verse takes a turn towards a dream that the singer had about the person they can't get out of their head. In the dream, they were covered in bees and felt "outrageous" with the person they desire. The chorus of the song sums up the internal battle the singer is struggling with, wanting to either get this person out of their head or into their bed.
Overall, the song is a clever way of depicting the push and pull of the human psyche when it comes to love and desire.
