1) Mixing four-chord Ramones-inspired rock anthems with an unadulterated pornography fixation, the Nobodys have sprung forth from the fertile grounds of Colorado Springs to become the reigning Ron Jeremys of the punk rock world!

It all began with their 1996 debut album on Hopeless, "Short Songs for Short Attention Spans." Produced by Joe Queer of The Queers, the record, full of two- minute gems, had fans getting it up from coast to coast as the band brought their live show across the country and around the world, touring the US, Europe and Canada several times over. Of course, this only made fans wet for more, so the Nobodys came again with their 1997 tour de force, "Smell of Victory" (produced by Warren Fitzgerald of The Vandals).

Tours with The Queers, Chixdiggit and Guttermouth won over even more converts. By now, collectors were going crazy trying to snatch up all the Nobodys material they could, so the band made it easy by compiling their numerous 7", compilation and demo songs onto one CD, appropriately titled "Greatasstits." (The cover, a close up on the enormous chest of renowned porn star Taylor Wayne, is as unforgettable as the music.) Soon to follow was the inevitable Generation XXX, produced by Donnell Cameron (Bad Religion, Rocket from the Crypt, NOFX) with twenty-five tracks of, what some would call ...sloppy, loud, perverted, snotty, annoying and not to mention overbearing punk rock from Colorado springs... Yeah, that's about right.

2) The Nobodys are a band that had their single "No Guarantees" appear on the TV series Miami Vice.

3) Nobody was a garage rock band from Seattle, WA during the 90's and featured pro skateboarder Scott Smiley on drums.

Nobodys Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

D you M be

D is for dumb you're as stupid as can be
You are unimportant you mean nothing to me
M is for your mother for not aborting you
Be is 'cause you're boring and I don't like you

D you M be

You're so dumb

D is for your dad 'cause he don't know shit
You is for your ugly face that I wanna hit
M is for your mouth 'cause it never stops
Be is for your brain you're as dumb as a rock

D you M be
You're so dumb

D you M be
You're so dumb

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "D.U.M.B." by Nobody uses acronyms to express a complete sense of disdain for an individual who is described as being dumb, stupid, unimportant, and boring. The acronym D.U.M.B. breaks down as follows; D is for "dumb", U is for "you," M is for "mother," and B is for "boring." The lyrics are very derogatory in nature, and suggest that the subject is not only dull, but also a waste of time and space. The song goes on to accuse the subject's parents for not being smart enough to abort them and criticizes the subject for their appearance, speech, and lack of intelligence.

The song seems to highlight a sense of bullying and verbal abuse which can be harmful to people who may already have self-esteem issues. Although the song may be cathartic to those who feel victimized, it can be a trigger for those who have experienced or are currently facing verbal abuse. The lyrics also highlight how bullies often use derogatory language to dehumanize and belittle their victims. Additionally, the lyrics can be interpreted as a warning to avoid being around people who may use similar language to hurt others or who may have a general disregard for others' feelings.
