The Groovie Ghoulies were a punk rock'n'roll band from Sacramento, California consisting of Kepi, Roach, and Scampi. They were around for many years and committed themselves to being constantly, dedicatedly touring the world spreading Ghoulish Love. They broke up in May of 2007.
Every show is treated as an event. Since 1997 they have done 7 U.S. tours, 2 Canadian tour, and 3 European tours.
Beyond their B-movie, rock, and punk influences, the Ghoulies make the most of the touring life. They have forsaken the tired rock stereotypes of drugs and self-destruction to go to Mount Rushmore, Graceland, Roswell, or hang out with other bands.
Although it's nothing like a Kiss or Rob Zombie show, the Ghoulies decorate the stage with a few toys and things to provide themselves and the crowd a level of comfort and familiarity. Prizes are often thrown, requests are often taken.

Stranded
Groovie Ghoulies Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Trapped, upon this land
Stranded, stranded and no-one understands
Stranded, on this planet
Trapped, upon this land
And no-one, no-one, understands

Line by Line Meaning
Stranded, on this planet
Feeling alone and helpless, stuck on this foreign piece of celestial matter
Trapped, upon this land
Confined and unable to leave this area, like a prisoner in their own surroundings
Stranded, stranded and no-one understands
Left without support or comprehension from others, adding to the feeling of isolation and abandonment
And no-one, no-one, understands
Emphasizing the lack of understanding and sympathy from anyone around, leaving the individual to struggle on their own
