Forgotten Rebels Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Johnny was a real cute altar boy, he's the coaches toy
He likes him first in line
He likes your ass real fine
He likes you 'cause you're nine
He'll get you every time
Dirty Daddy says it's hockey night
Dirty Daddy wants to feel alright
Oh yah
He likes high sticking and body checks
And little boy sex!
He's a hockey fan from (????) now
Hockey wow! He shoots he scores!
He likes him first in line
He likes your ass real fine
He likes you 'cause you're nine
He'll get you every time
Dirty Daddy wants to feel alright
Dirty Daddy says it's hockey night
Dirty Daddy wants to feel alright
Oh yah
Sex lies hockey tape
Sex lies hockey tape
Sex lies hockey tape
Technical foul!
He likes him first in line
He likes your ass real fine
He likes you 'cause you're nine
He'll get you every time
Dirty Daddy wants to feel alright
Dirty Daddy says it's hockey night
Dirty Daddy wants to feel alright
Dirty Daddy says it's hockey night (oh yah)
Dirty Daddy wants to feel alright (oh yah)
Dirty Daddy says it's hockey night (oh yah)
Dirty Daddy wants to feel alright (oh yah)
Dirty Daddy says it's hockey night (oh yah)
The lyrics of Forgotten Rebels's song Hockey Nite explore the disturbing theme of child sexual abuse in the context of a hockey game. The song seems to describe a coach named Dirty Daddy who preys on young boys on his team, particularly Johnny, whom he calls his "coach's toy". The lyrics suggest that Dirty Daddy likes to make Johnny the first in line and admires his rear end, as well as the fact that he is only nine years old. The song presents a chilling picture of the coach's predatory behavior and his use of hockey as a cover for his abuse.
The repeated refrain of "Dirty Daddy wants to feel alright" is especially sinister, as it seems to suggest that the coach is using his abuse of children to satisfy his own desires. The lyrics also make references to other aspects of hockey culture, such as "high sticking" and "body checks", which can be seen as parallels for sexual acts.
Overall, the song is a scathing critique of the culture of silence and complicity around child sexual abuse, particularly within the context of organized sports. It forces listeners to confront the uncomfortable reality that even beloved institutions like hockey can be used as a cover for heinous crimes.
