If anyone could equal the MC5 and Stooges at their insane best, it's Nixon Now.
Kevin McHugh, stonerrock.com
Hamburg hipshakers Nixon Now are one such example of the MC5 legacy and, to tell you the truth, they do the two-minute-and-change supercharged fuzzbomb better than the originals. The one thing that can be said for Nixon Now is that they exude that rare rock n’ roll energy that is so friggin’ hard to capture on a studio recording. Altamont Nation Express actually sounds like the band going Chernobyl in front of a rabid, sweaty and panty-throwing audience. It’s all stun guitars with Kamikaze divebomb solos, Keith Moon-like percussive abandon and pre-Punk snotty spit n’ fuck you attitude. You’ll most certainly dig Nixon Now if the MC5 appeals to you,

I've Been Around
Nixon Now Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've been to Bristol and Bombay
Ive been trippin´in Disneyland
Been in a psychedelic band
Been around your house today
been the one who walked away
been all way down mystery lane
Been to the seven gates of hell
Had tons of girls to ring my bell
Ive seen the beauty and the beast
I've had the clap seven times at least
Been around your house today
been the one who walked away
been all way down mystery lane
been the one I'm flying the plane
I've been to Hollywood, L.A.
I've been to Bristol and Bombay
Been to the seven gates of hell
Had tons of girls to ring my bell
Been around your house today
been the one who walked away
been all way down mystery lane
been the one i´m flying the plane
oooh
yeah yeah yeah
In Nixon Now's song "I've Been Around," the lyrics describe the experiences of a person who has traveled extensively and lived life to the fullest. The first few lines of the song mention some of the most popular travel destinations in the world, such as Hollywood, L.A., Bristol, and Bombay. The person also describes taking psychedelics in Disneyland and being in a psychedelic band. Later in the song, the lyrics mention being around the house of someone they care about, but ultimately walking away. The person has experienced both the good and bad in life, including visiting the seven gates of hell and having multiple sexual partners.
Overall, the song seems to convey a sense of freedom, living in the moment, and not being afraid to take risks. The person has been to various places and tried different things, but they still feel like they're in control, as evidenced by the line "been the one I'm flying the plane." The song suggests that life is full of surprises and adventures, and it's up to us to make the most of them.

"Fook" Rhymes with "Book."
【Read this in an overly eccentric/ emotional jester like voice】
Funny, would you take a look, it seems I just snook another Rhyme from mine neverending book of Rhymes.. in which I conveniently have the time... to commit such a crime as absurd as telling Rhymes, but please..
don't be mistook and judge me by how I may look...
For I promise you that
I
Am
Not
A
Crook
Well... I suppose there was a time.. YES, a time where I didn't always Rhyme., and once upon this time I may have stole a book or two from one of my own crew.. due too a bet I lost over a challenge to cook the greatest FONDUE!!!!.... Though my fondue was not sublime, I had to deal with a sue for the books I stole "From Who?, They Were Never Even Used!" I never meant to commit a crime, I just wanted to have some words to read for that is how I loved to spend mine downtime.
But it seems now I've gotten myself stuck into a bit of a lime that I will have to burden until the end of time, but I say..
I'm am not a Crook...
I'm just ought but a helpless poet with the dream to be your cook if you'd only ring that bell for me to hear that chime...
the closest sound
to complete my neverending Rhymes.

Lyrics
And I want to say this to the television audience
I've made my mistakes
But in all of my years of public life
I have never profited
Never profited
From public service
I have earned every cent
And in all of my years of public life
I have never obstructed justice
And I think too that I can say
That in my years of public life
That I welcome this kind of examination
Because people have got to know
Whether or not their President's a crook
Well I'm not a crook
I've earned everything I got
