Allin's lyrics, which often included misogyny, racism, social apathy, child abuse, incest, rape and homophobia, deeply divided opinions of him within the highly politicized punk community. He is best remembered for his notorious live performances that typically featured wildly transgressive acts. Some of these acts included Allin defecating and urinating onstage, rolling in feces and often consuming excrement, committing self-injury, performing naked, taunting people to perform fellatio on him and committing violent actions toward the audience. Although more notorious for his stage antics than for his wide body of music, he recorded prolifically, not only in the punk rock genre, but also in spoken word, country and Rolling Stones-influenced rock. Though he had a devoted cult following, Allin's music has received mostly negative reviews from critics.

Don't Talk to Me
GG Allin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sitting in your rom conversing all alone
Talk, talk, talk, talk, talking about everybody else
But what you really rather do is talking about yourself,so......
Don't talk to me, don't talk
Don't talk to me, don't talk
Don't talk to me, don't talk You don't talk to me, don't talk
You don't talk to me
Not even a word, not even a whisper
Just button your lip!
You aught to have a case of bloody larengitis!
We're sitting in a room with no one here beside us,
Cause we're sick and tired of listening to your neuratic shit
Why don't you shut your mouth, stop acting like a twit
Cha cha cha cha cha cha cha cha chatter chatter chatter!
You talk to me all night, but I don't know what's the mather
When you yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak!
I'd like to tie your hands and feet and put you in a sack.
GG Allin's song "Don't Talk to Me" is about his frustration with people who talk too much, particularly those who only talk about themselves. He starts off by saying how tired he is of talking on the phone, especially when he's sitting in a room by himself. He complains that people talk about everybody else but would rather talk about themselves. As a result, he tells them not to talk to him at all.
As the song progresses, GG Allin's frustration grows, and he becomes more direct in his message. He tells the person not to even whisper and to have bloody laryngitis, essentially telling them to shut up. He calls the person out on their neurotic behavior and tells them to stop acting like a twit. The repeated "cha cha cha" and "yak yak yak" is his imitation of the people he's annoyed with, and he finally says that he wants to tie them up and put them in a sack.
This song is a reflection of GG Allin's personality and the way he felt about society in general. He believed in complete freedom of speech and expression and felt that people who talked too much were just adding to the noise pollution. He wanted people to act instead of just talk, and this song was his way of expressing his frustration with what he saw as meaningless chatter.

weird to hear a song by GG that could be played on the radio
@JimDangerZone
GG & the Jabbers got airplay on a lot of their early songs, on college stations, local stations that sometimes featured local bands, etc.. GG had a list of radio stations around the world that were willing to play new, unknown bands, and he sent records to all of them. Later, further into drugs and fuck-upness, he took a turn.......
@ladyspace6365
The Jabbers are the only band of GG's that are remotely musical. Depends on what you're looking for but I get a ton of shit when I say the Jabbers are 1 of my all time faves. They were incredible.
@oiyabastard7275
@lady space the.jabbers rocked. The.gege played drums with another band with a song called love tunnel or Love Canal it look it up
