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.

Fed up
Fed up
Fed up

Bitch all day about the taxes that you pay.
Won't do no good.
Whine all the time about the crime in your neighborhood.
I hate my job and I wanna quit, but I need the money.

Life ain't a joke to me because mine ain't fun. No!

Fed up
Fed up
Fed up
Fed up

Try to live like a king on a measly salary, but I can't do it.
I had a chance to be somebody but I blew it.
Don't pay rent, I live at home. I'm 22.

I Ain't gotta girlfriend, I'm getting fat.
I'm ugly too.

Overall Meaning

The song "Fed Up" by Nobodys delves into the feelings of frustration and dissatisfaction that many people face in their daily lives. The repetitive chorus of "Fed Up" drives home the message that the singer is tired of feeling stuck in their current situation. The first verse talks about common complaints people have, such as high taxes and crime in their neighborhood, but the singer acknowledges that constant complaining won't solve anything. The second verse describes the singer's personal struggles - not being able to live the lifestyle they want on their salary and feeling like they missed an opportunity to be successful. They also express self-deprecating thoughts about living at home, being single and overweight, and having low self-esteem.

The song can be interpreted as a commentary on the societal pressures to conform to certain standards of success and happiness. The singer seems to feel like they are failing to meet those expectations and are frustrated with themselves and the world around them. The chorus of "Fed Up" is a defiant statement - they may be unhappy, but they refuse to accept it as their fate.

Overall, "Fed Up" is a relatable and raw expression of negative emotions that many people experience at some point in their lives. It's a reminder that even when life feels overwhelming, it's okay to feel frustrated and to express those feelings.
