The Bones are a band from Karlskrona, Sweden. Since the kick-off back in '96, these guys have been on stage several hundred times all over Europe putting on an amazing performance. But the rise to success started in the fall of 1997 when they released "The Horrorway E.P." (own label), which sold out in just a few months. This success drove the guys to put out a second mini-album titled "Six feet down and two fingers up". During the recording-sessions for "Six feet down, two fingers up", the band was contacted by the german label " People like you Records (sublabel to Century Media Records).and in the summer of '99 The Bones signed the contract. The rock'n'roll circus was about to take off! Not content with this they also signed with german booking-agency, MAD. This crazy carousel made way for their first full-length album "Screwed, blued and tattooed" which, in turn, resulted in the band touring all over Europe gaining new fans wherever they went. The Bones was rattling the cage, making some noise

In the spring of 2002 The Bones released their second album "Bigger than Jesus", again the guys recorded at the PAMA-studio backed-up by "People like you". Great reviews were echoing from all over Europe but the album also attracted some great feedback from the U.S. Touring has continued and the band has headlined several festivals and toured arenas together with Die Toten Hosen. Live The Bones have also supported bands like D.A.D, U.S. Bombs for a whole european tour, shared stages with Motörhead, Roger Miret & The Disasters, 999, Angelic Upstarts, Cockney Rejects and so on... As you can see this is band a that play to live and live to play - down to the bone!

The Bones are also a Las Vegas-Based Rock & Roll band comprised of Patrick Vitagliano (formerly of Nuclear Theory/Assault) on Guitar and Lead Vocals, Sean Koos (formerly of Joan Jett & The Blackhearts) on Bass, and Jeff Duncan (From Armored Saint and formerly of Odin) on guitar. https://theboneslv.com/

Not My Kind

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've got a problem with you talking to my face
I've got a problem with you getting on my case
I always hate it when you tell me what to do
I've got a problem and the problem is you
Shut up, shut the hell up
'Cuz I don't now what you say
Don't talk don't run your mouth
'Cuz it don't mean nothing to me

I've got a problem with you getting on my nerves
you've got it coming gonna get what you deserve
I never liked it when you tell me what to say
I've got a problem and it never goes away
Shut up, shut the hell up
'Cuz I don't know what you say
Don't talk don't run your mouth
'Cuz it don't mean nothing to me
I can't believe that you could treat me so unkind
I always knew that you were not of human kind
You've got a problem if you think I'll disappear
you've got a problem and the problem is me
Shut up, shut the hell up
'Cuz I don't know what you say
Don't talk don't run your mouth
'Cuz it don't mean nothing to me
Shut up, shut the fuck up
'Cuz I don't know what you say

Don't talk don't run your mouth
'Cuz it don't mean nothing to me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to The Bones's song "Not My Kind" suggest a relationship with someone who is constantly telling the singer what to do and say, and who they believe is not treating them with kindness or respect. The repeated "Shut up, shut the hell up" and "Shut up, shut the fuck up" lines indicate the level of frustration and anger that the singer feels towards this person.

The chorus is a rejection of the person's opinions and statements, with the singer saying that they don't care what they have to say and that it means nothing to them. The singer also asserts themselves and their own identity, stating that the problem is not with them but with the other person who is causing difficulty in the relationship.

Overall, the lyrics seem to convey a sense of wanting to break free from someone who is controlling and unkind, and a desire to assert one's own identity and independence.
