They came up with the name because Cudzoo was a type of Japanese wine they liked, of which they altered the spelling. Cudzoo are Mamrie ‘Mametown’ Hart, Erin ‘E-Bomb’ McCarson and Jessica ‘J-Train’ Bartley and The Faggettes are their backing band. They refer to their own style as a mixture between dirty doo-wop and vintage rock. They often perform in New York, although the band is currently on a hiatus because Hart is residing in Los Angeles for the time being.

Walk Away
Cudzoo & The Faggettes Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You walk your dog all around the city
Winking at the homeless girls make 'em feel pretty
You love the Ramones and you love your Mom
You pretend you don't know what's going on
Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you need me
Tell me that you want me
Then walk away

You do your laundry then wear your dirty shirt
You're a drunk and a crazy and a real pervert
You're far too witty and your eyes are too blue
There should be a warning for loving you
Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you need me
Tell me that you want me
I have dreams where I tie you to the bed
I have dreams where you remember what you said
I have dreams where you're not a disaster
I have dreams where we're happily ever after
I have dreams where I tie you to the bed
I have dreams where you remember what you said
I have dreams where you're not a disaster
I have dreams where we're happily ever after
When you've made up your mind it's absolute
You're covered in dog hair but I think it's cute
You try to eat healthy but you smoke too much
Why do you have to be such... a pain in my ASS!
Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you need me
Tell me that you want me
Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you need me
Tell me that you want me
Then walk away
Walk away
Walk away
Walk away
Walk away

Walk away
Walk away

Overall Meaning

In "Walk Away" by Cudzoo & The Faggettes, the singer is describing a complicated and possibly unhealthy relationship with the person they are addressing. The person has qualities that the singer finds attractive, such as a love for punk music and a tendency to make homeless women feel good about themselves. However, the person is also described as a drunk, a pervert, and a disaster. Despite these flaws, the singer is clearly attached to the person and wants them to express their feelings honestly. The repeating refrain of "Tell me that you love me, tell me that you need me, tell me that you want me" suggests that the singer is looking for validation and reassurance, but the final line of each verse, "Then walk away," indicates that the singer knows the relationship is ultimately doomed.

The dreams described in the second verse are particularly revealing. The singer imagines tying the person to the bed, which could be interpreted as a desire for control or as a way of preventing the person from leaving. The dreams where the person is not a disaster and they live happily ever after show that the singer yearns for something stable and long-lasting, but the rest of the lyrics suggest that this may be impossible with this particular person. The final line of the song, "Walk away," could be interpreted as a warning to the listener not to get involved with someone who is only going to cause heartache.
