The band was formed because they are tired listening to OPM bands that were 'playing safe and sticking to the sugarcoated “boy meets girl and they broke up and he misses her” formula especially in pop culture. Their goal is to have fun with themselves, the public, the gender benders of stand up comedy, the ballet dancers, politics, late 80's and early 90's horror and action movies, theatre of the damned, and everything under the sun. The band is actually composed of people that would fill these stupid description(s): frustrated, fun loving, nuts, musician, bastards, banger, idiot, attention-deficit disorder victims, penicillin user, and tanga. The band's childish aura and demeanor is meant to entertain the audience with silly lyrics and twisted musical exploration, their musical influences ranging “from mild to wild”. (shock pop to metal hospital) Albeit serious when it comes to their music and not wanting to be labeled as a 'humor' band which is ridiculously a one dimensional term, the band's music is dumb, and ridiculously fun.

Creep
Tanya Markova Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful whirl
I wish I was special
You're so very special

But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here

I don't care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice when I'm not around
You're so very special
I wish I was special

Cause we are creep
We are weirdo's
What the hell am I doing here?
We don't belong here

She's running out the door
She's running
She runs runs runs runs
Runs

Runs

Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so very special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?




I don't belong here
I don't belong here

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Tanya Markova's song "Creep" portray a sense of inadequacy and self-loathing of the singer towards themselves. The first verse of the song depicts the singer's admiration for someone they deem special, describing them as an angel and wishing to be like them. However, the second part of the verse reveals the singer's lack of confidence, as they are unable to look the person in the eye and cry because of the person's attractive appearance. The chorus of the song then states that the singer is a creep and a weirdo, feeling out of place and questioning why they are even there.


The second verse echoes the insecurity seen in the first verse, as the singer wants to have control and desires to attain an ideal body and soul. More notably, the singer wishes for someone to notice their absence, which could be interpreted as a desire to be wanted or needed by someone as a way to validate their existence. The chorus repeats, emphasizing the singer's disconnectedness with others and their own self-image.


The bridge of the song has the woman running out the door, and the singer expresses that they want the person to be happy and to have whatever they desire. The final chorus restates the singer's feelings of not belonging and concludes with them admitting that they do not belong there.
