Limp Bizkit Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(Why's everybody always picking on me?)
Does anybody really know a thing about me?
(Does anybody really know a thing about me?)
One of these days we'll be in the same place
In the same place punk, at the very same time (yeah)
And when it takes place and you wanna talk shit
Then step your ass up, and say it right to my face
You'll get knocked the fuck out
'Cause your mouth's writing checks that your ass can't cash
Knocked straight the fuck out
'Cause your mouth's writing checks that your ass can't cash
I ain't believing all the shit you been talking 'bout me
(I ain't believing all the shit you been talking 'bout me)
Don't even know me, and still you're talking shit about me
(Don't even know me, and still you're talking shit about me)
Well, one of these days I'm gonna catch you in the act
In the act, red handed, caught up in the act (punk)
And that'll be the day, your one and only day
Then step your ass up, and say it right to my face
You'll get knocked the fuck out
'Cause your mouth's writing checks that your ass can't cash
Knocked straight the fuck out
'Cause your mouth's writing checks that your ass can't cash
Shh
So where you at?Where you been?
I'm sure I'll be seeing you again
'Cause this world is really small
Can't we all get along, can't we all get along?
So where you at? Where you been?
I'm sure I'll be seeing you again
'Cause this world is really small
Can we all get along, can we all get along?
I'm upset at the people who verbally rape us, we're talking
We try to ignore them, ignore them until they keep talking
They think that they're building an empire without us
Well we've got the torch now
We've got the fire to burn this motherfucker down, town, town
Burn this motherfucker down, town, town
Burn this motherfucker now, down, down
Burn this motherfucker now, down
Burn this motherfucker
You'll get knocked the fuck out
'Cause your mouth's writing checks that your ass can't cash
Knocked straight the fuck out
'Cause your mouth's writing checks that your ass can't cash
That your ass can't cash
Motherfucker
Just shut your fuckin' mouth
Bring it on Lethal

The lyrics of Limp Bizkit's song Full Nelson talks about the frustration and anger of the singer towards those who talk badly about him. The song talks about the singer being tired of listening to people who pick on him without knowing anything about him. The singer expresses his desire to face these people and challenge them to speak right into his face for once. The lyrics invoke a sense of aggression, with the singer threatening to knock out those who talk behind his back, because their mouth is writing checks that their ass can't cash.
The song reflects a feeling of injustice and frustration about being talked about and bullied by people who don't know the singer, who are using his name to build their own empires. The singer suggests that it's time for a change and that they have the power to burn the current system down and build a better one.

If you ask any die hard limp fan which song you want to see them do live...this one will be high on that list every time...and a bit of an underrated gem on this album.
@ggj1987
That’s a very contradicting statement
@Comfarol
if they played this live the place would get burned to the ground
@joshuamills2136
I can confirm they just did this live at Inkcarceration. They still got it
@deadroses19
saw them live yesterday and they played this song with a guest guy from the crowd on stage
@chemicalimbalance7030
@@ggj1987the only thing that matters is the enthusiasm of his fandom. That comes across at least
@BurtGumm3r
I remember getting picked on in middle school, and never having the courage to do anything about it or stick up for myself, I'd come home lay in bed at night and fantasize about kicking the shit out of them with this playing on my walkman. My dad saw me get slapped and said, "boy next time he does that, knock him in his nose and don't stop til you are pulled off" Needless to say I got suspended, but gained a valuable life lesson and respect and a bond with my dad. Limp bizkit reminds me of then.
@JJsiN84
Love the story bro, because I can relate with that just like you I was bullied constantly until middle school. In front of the entire cafeteria this fucker was running his mouth sitting on my left I got up, took him by his throat, choke slammed his fucking ass to the ground.
Dude was twice my size crying like a little bitch in front of everybody. It’s like you say: you learn a valuable life lesson. Sometimes you got to put your hands up! you can’t ignore the problems, you can’t ignore any of your problems and expect they will just go away.
