Yeah Yeah
Mother And Father Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Screaming out for violence, wanting more
Vengeance in the eyes, no sign of pity
A bitter thirst for blood within the law
What you wanna see? Hung from the rafters!
What you wanna see? Blood on the floor!
What you wanna see? Death to the bastards!
What you wanna see? Videos and pictures!
What you wanna see? Thrilled to the core !
What you wanna see? Death to the bastards!
What you wanna see? Bigger than before!
I've got a chip on my shoulder, my mood packs a hell of a punch
But I feel like a winner coz you're the best killer around
I was mesmerised by burning buildings
Helpless as the fires crept through the floors
The villain kept his cool throughout the grilling
Washed his hands and closed the blackened door
What you wanna see? Hung from the rafters!
What you wanna see? Blood on the floor!
What you wanna see? Death to the bastards!
What you wanna see? Bigger than before!
What you wanna see? Videos and pictures!
What you wanna see? Thrilled to the core !
What you wanna see? Death to the bastards!
What you wanna see? Bigger than before!
I've got a chip on my shoulder, my mood packs a hell of a punch
But I feel like a winner coz you're the best killer around
The lyrics of "Yeah Yeah" by Mother And Father delve into the theme of society's fascination with violence and the perverse desire for more. The singer starts by observing crowds in the city who are craving violence and seeking vengeance without any trace of compassion. The line "Vengeance in the eyes, no sign of pity" highlights the lack of empathy and the bitter thirst for blood within the boundaries of the law.
As the song progresses, the lyrics become more explicit about the voyeuristic nature of this desire for violence. The repetition of the phrase "What you wanna see?" emphasizes the curiosity and morbid fascination with gruesome imagery. The crowd seems to derive pleasure from witnessing death and destruction, through videos, pictures, or even live spectacle.
The chorus reflects the singer's personal mindset. Despite having a chip on their shoulder and a volatile mood, they feel like a winner because they know someone who excels in being a killer. This can be interpreted metaphorically, suggesting that they feel powerful and validated in their own aggression by associating with someone who is skilled at inflicting harm.
Overall, "Yeah Yeah" serves as a critique of society's obsession with violence and the perverse enjoyment derived from witnessing it. The lyrics highlight the detachment and desensitization towards human suffering, as well as the dangerous validation of aggression.

I've got a chip on my shoulder, my mood packs a hell of a punch
I carry a grudge, and my emotions have a powerful impact
But I feel like a winner coz you're the best killer around
Because you excel in causing harm, I feel triumphant
I was mesmerised by burning buildings
I was enchanted by the sight of buildings engulfed in flames
Helpless as the fires crept through the floors
Feeling powerless as the fires silently spread
The villain kept his cool throughout the grilling
The antagonist remained composed during intense questioning
Washed his hands and closed the blackened door
Having no remorse, the villain cleansed his hands and sealed the charred entrance
I've got a chip on my shoulder, my mood packs a hell of a punch
I hold a grudge, and my emotions have a significant impact
But I feel like a winner coz you're the best killer around
Because you excel in causing harm, I feel triumph
