The group appeared on The Gong Show touting themselves as the world's worst band, but the real turning point came when they met Gwar in 1988 and learned how to sculpt props and costumes with latex, papier-mache, chicken wire, and couch cushions. They attracted a small, curious following with their bizarre, cartoonish look and wound up signing with Zoo Records as a video-only band. Band members, who have exceeded 74 in number over the years, perform under aliases such as Marshall Staxx and Jesus Quisp. The band was able to sell records based on their visual weirdness for several years, doing fine up through the mid-'90s.
FIGHT
Green Jellÿ Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You worthless, little worm!
Fight! Fight! Fight!
The fighting must go through,
I'll kick you when you're down,
Back-stabbing shit-heads,
Laughing like a clown,
Shoot you when you're down,
Back-stabbing shit-heads
Throwing you like you've flown,
Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
I am not a liar, worthless, little cunt,
Rip you all and loving it when I kick you, when I cut,
Ah, you little shit-heads, you will be a fool,
If you are, you'll feel it when I fuck with a tool,
Shitty town weasle, stealing what you got,
Spooked you wide open when I give you one more shot,
Ah, you little bastard, you won't be a fuss,
Fast little bastard, probably die a wuss,
Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
I am not a liar...
I am not a liar, never gonna stop.
It's difficult to extract a coherent narrative or message from Green Jelly's song "Fight" since the lyrics are mostly a chaotic ramble of insults, threats, and exhortations to violence. However, it's clear that the singer is daring someone, possibly a weakling or a rival, to fight him, and he's confident that he will win because he claims to be a tough, merciless, and truthful person who enjoys hurting others. He also seems to regard fighting as a necessary and entertaining activity that purges the soul and reveals one's true nature. Much of the imagery in the song is violent, vulgar, and absurd, such as kicking someone when they're down, laughing like a clown, throwing someone like they've flown, ripping people and loving it, and even using a tool to fuck with them. The tone of the delivery is mocking, sneering, and exaggerated, matching the jarring and silly music.
One possible interpretation of the song is that it satirizes or criticizes the toxic masculinity and fragile egos that fuel many fights and insults among young men. The singer may be playing the role of a bully, a psychopath, or a rebel who challenges the norms of society and shows off his toughness, but his words reveal a deep insecurity and a distorted worldview. He may also be suggesting that violence is a form of catharsis or self-expression that fulfills a primal and irrational urge in people, and that fighting is a way to assert dominance or establish hierarchy. Alternatively, he may be mocking the whole concept of fighting as a juvenile and pointless activity that only leads to pain, humiliation, and death.
