For more talking about: Driving bus & each night in another club, hitting the strings. Those who are familiar with their boring home town (Eislingen an der Fils) underenthusiasm, whereever they are & at any time. Apart from 400 concerts, often sharing the stage with some of their heroes. With the classical line-up drums, guitar, bass and the two-part singing by Sibbi/Panzer, in their stunningly perky manner & and with a good portion of charme, they never fail to deliver a rude show that moves the masses. With their debut album heart to believe ITCHY POOPZKID made themselves conspicuous in October 2005. Over 15 month the band has been on tourchange to the constant soccer training.
In spite of more than 110 shows in 2006, the three Eislingers succeeded in locking themselves up for months in a smelly, windowless studio and did not see the light of the summer of the century until it was well over & the album done. With TIME TO IGNITE they built the musical bomb they are going to blow up in 2007! Still more direct, more honest, extremely multifaceted and just 100% ITCHY POOPZKID. Hard riffs (better off alone, big shot) are standing alongside catchy melodies (take me back, you don´t bring me down) or energetic sounds (kante, personality). Seri´ll walk away). Produced by Achim Lindermeir (H-Blockx, Die Happy) and mixed by Olaf Opal (Notwist, Sportfreunde Stiller) they show in 13 songs how versatile punkrock can be if only you dare. Who doesn´t want to wait until the end of March – no big deal. A week earlier, on March 23rd, the EP silence is killing me is being released.

Got everything you need
You're the big shot boy
See the working class you exceed
You're the big shot boy
Are you happy now?
You're the big shot boy
Are you happy now?
You love to watch them bleed
Money makes the world go round - What is morality?
Bling - bling - bling, my god, I need a break
Eat me alive
I hope you suffocate
Go, rip me off
Go, rip me off
Will you ever get enough?
Dismantle all of us
So let's discuss what you can buy
Go, rip me off
Go, rip me off
You seem to be so tough
We'll pull you tooth, my son, the golden one
I'm sure you're gonna cry

You're the big shot boy
Don't forget to adjust your tie
You're the big shot boy

Money makes the world go round - What is morality?

My son, the golden one
My son, the golden one
I'm sure you're gonna cry
The song 'Big Shot' by Itchy Poopzkid is a scathing criticism of the wealthy elite who exploit the working class to maintain their status and power. The lyrics describe a person who has everything they need, including money and power, but still derives pleasure from watching others suffer. The chorus asks if the titular 'big shot boy' is truly happy with their life, and hints that their behavior is morally questionable. As the song progresses, the lyrics become increasingly confrontational towards the 'big shot boy', urging them to acknowledge their privilege and the harm they cause to others.
The repeated refrain of 'Money makes the world go round- What is morality?' emphasizes the contrasting values between the rich and the poor, revolving around money and the accumulation of wealth. The line 'Eat me alive, I hope you suffocate' is a metaphor for how the wealthy consume and destroy the lives of those beneath them.
Overall, the lyrics of 'Big Shot' condemn those who prioritize money and power above all else, and seek to hold them accountable for the harm they cause.
