The Waffle Stompers does not mean Anti-Pancake. The Waffle Stompers was created from the minds of 8th grade skateboarder’s and punks and posEURS, and it became a revolution. The Waffle Stompers stands for an undying love of upping punx and downing 40’s. In this sick, sad, world where fun is not hip and Skurock is looked down upon, The Waffle Stompers stands for change. The Waffle Stompers stands for love, hate, war, peace, embracing enemies, and fighting friends. Anti-Flag means...i mean...The Waffle Stompers means unity.

Love us and we’ll continue to love you back, it’s what makes this band work.

Glory
The Waffle Stompers Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sometimes I wonder
Where the glory is in inspiration
Brought the tears from the pain
And seperation to death for nation

And I'm just a pile of buddy (?)
Broken hearts really millions
Depends on a paper

Makes me want to turn away
From what I'm fighting for

Whoa-oh-oh
Yeah
Whoa
Whoa-oh-oh
Yeah
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
So I think I'll stay outside

Daddy says we've got no chance
And we might as well pack in
And he's gone fromt he thought
He says we lack the heart

And I can't help
But think that it's worth it
To go speak to them
So I step into city moments
To a three-part pardon me (?)

I have no problem with a crowd pleaser
We'll never fucking die!

Whoa-oh-oh
Yeah
Whoa
Whoa-oh-oh
Yeah
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
So I think I'll stay outside

Singing
Whoa-oh-oh
Yeah
Whoa

Whoa-oh-oh
Yeah
Whoa-oh-oh-oh

So I think I'll stay outside
So I think I'll stay outside

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to The Waffle Stompers' song "Glory" express the struggle to find meaning and purpose in fighting for a cause. The artist wonders where the glory lies in the inspiration that brings tears and pain and ultimately leads to separation and death for a nation. The artist acknowledges being just a "pile of buddy" representing broken hearts in the face of such suffering, and questions the paper-thin reasons for waging war. Despite the doubts and hurdles, the artist still feels compelled to fight and to speak to the masses, knowing that they might be written off as having no heart or chance at success. The chorus repeats the declaration that they will stay outside, an ambiguous statement perhaps indicating that they will continue to fight or that they will refuse to be seduced by the promises of glory and reward.

"Glory" is an introspective and thought-provoking song that raises important questions about the nature of conflict and the human cost of war. It encourages listeners to consider what drives us to fight or to support those who fight, and to critically examine the narratives and justifications put forth by politicians and leaders. The song also pays tribute to the resilience and courage of those who continue to fight despite overwhelming odds, and emphasizes the importance of staying true to one's values and convictions.

Line by Line Meaning

Sometimes I wonder
At times, I question

Where the glory is in inspiration
What constitutes the honor in being inspired

Brought the tears from the pain
Causing tears due to suffering

And seperation to death for nation
The separation from loved ones leading to sacrifice for one's country

And I'm just a pile of buddy (?)
I am only a collection of friends(?), maybe referring to a group of like-minded individuals

Broken hearts really millions
The pain of a countless number of broken hearts

Depends on a paper
Depending on formal documents or contracts

Makes me want to turn away
Causing a desire to turn around and walk away

From what I'm fighting for
From the cause of my struggle

Whoa-oh-oh
