Amidst the other politically-charged bands emerging from that same period (System of a Down, Korn, Rage Against the Machine), Tura Satana's 1996 debut "All is Not Well" placed the one-of-a-kind Miss B. on the musical map; unlike other albums of that period, this CD features Tairrie rapping and decrying issues which were far too disturbing to be discussed: the lyrics furiously tackle the horrifying realities of rape (Victim), botched abortions (Put Your Head Out), child abuse (Break) and spousal battery (Cycle of Violence). With loud and hammering guitars accompanying her, Tairrie used this CD as her first attempt to purge the tortured memories of her own past; it's a long, personal battle that would continue for the next decade, all the way up to My Ruin's "Prayer Under Pressure" record. Although "All is Not Well" isn't the best album released during Tairrie's career, it certainly isn't the worst either, as it foreshadows what was to come in the near future. "All is Not Well" even includes a raging, punk-like duet between the lovely Miss B. and Snot's Lynn Strait (Down) who unexpectantly died shortly after.

Negative Creep
Tura Satana Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

This is out of our range, and it's grown
This is getting to be, droan
I'm a negative creep and I'm stoned

Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more

Yeah! Drone! Stoned!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Tura Satana's song Negative Creep suggest a state of emotional turmoil and an estrangement from societal norms. The first line "This is out of our range, and it's grown" possibly implies feeling out of place in a world that is rapidly changing and evolving, and the singer's inability to keep up with it. The second line "This is getting to be, droan" suggests monotony and perhaps a feeling of being stuck in a rut.

The last line "I'm a negative creep, and I'm stoned" encapsulates the whole feeling of the song. Being a "negative creep" could be interpreted as a self-loathing, negative self-image, and feeling like an outcast from the mainstream society. Being "stoned" could be a reference to drug use, which could be a form of escape or numbing oneself from the harshness of reality.

The last line of the chorus "Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more" adds another layer of meaning to the song. It could suggest a loss of innocence, coming of age, and perhaps even rebellion against patriarchal norms.

Line by Line Meaning

This is out of our range, and it's grown
This situation is beyond our control and it's become bigger than expected.

This is getting to be, droan
This is becoming monotonous and boring.

I'm a negative creep and I'm stoned
I'm a pessimistic and depressed person and I'm under the influence of drugs.

Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
I'm not the innocent and dependent person I used to be under my father's protection.
