The Misfits were known for their sing-along "Whoa-oh-oh" choruses after the 1982 "Walk Among Us" LP -- and although Naked Raygun are often cited as having been influenced by The Misfits in this regard, the reverse is the case.
Haggerty and Kezdy would later join with Larry Damore of the Bhopal Stiffs to form Pegboy. Pezzati fronted The Bomb. A reunion in the late 90s produced the live album Free Shit!. The band reunited for Riot Fest 2006 on November 5, 2006 in Chicago, Illinois, and is playing a west coast tour in December, 2007.

Libido
Naked Raygun Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't even want a girl
My libido is low
My libido is low
Don't wanna have sex
Hardly play with myself
My libido is low
My libido is low
Well I guess it happened
Just last week
Got all hepped up on too much speed
And I danced 'til my prostate fell out
Better dominate me
I like to lie there
My libido is low
My libido is low
Once a week I look at dirty pictures
I rape myself
My libido is low
My libido is low
I heard this happens to older men
I wish I'd started when I was ten
I might as well just lob it off
And feed it to my dog
Woof woof
The lyrics to Naked Raygun's song "Libido" delve into a theme that is often considered taboo - low sexual desire. The beginning of the song starts with a strong statement - "get away from me boy, don't even want a girl," indicating a lack of sexual attraction towards any gender. The repetition of "my libido is low" emphasizes the theme further. The singer proclaims that they don't desire to have sex and do not even masturbate frequently.
The lyrics take a strange turn in the second stanza, where the singer talks about their experience of getting high on speed and dancing until their prostate fell out. The phrase "better dominate me, I like to lie there" could be interpreted in many different ways, but it seems to indicate that the singer feels powerless in the face of their low libido. They seem to enjoy being dominated, but only due to their lack of sexual desire.
Towards the end of the song, the singer talks about how they only look at dirty pictures once a week and "rape" themselves. The use of the word "rape" in this context could again be interpreted in multiple ways. The lyrics suggest that the singer feels like they are forcing themselves to masturbate, which could indicate that their lack of sexual desire is causing them distress.
Overall, "Libido" is a candid and provocative exploration of a topic that many people feel uncomfortable discussing. The song touches upon themes of powerlessness, shame, and the complex psychological effects of low sexual desire.
