U.S. Bombs Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
and its called the wig
its not for your head
its not the jig
Lossen up your pants
and freak to the beat
take a slug of you beer
If ya had a hard day, then ya better start wiggin out
ya don't have to count and it don't take a talent scout
ys don't have to measure up
you don't need a coin for the cup
Just go for it , let it rip
Wig Out!! - exit
Nobody cares if you wanna flip
If everyone stares there just jealous
If yer home alone put your pajamas on
turn the music up and let the neighbors wig
If you hit some one you don't have to fitght
the cops will bring yer own spot light
No tough guys need to prove
you had a dog day afternoon
Just blow off and wig on out!
The U.S. Bombs's song "The Wig Out" is about a new type of party or gathering that gives everyone the freedom to let loose and be themselves without any judgment or criticism. The "wig" mentioned in the lyrics is not referring to a wig for one's head but instead the wigging out that takes place at this event. The song encourages everyone to join in and let go of their worries, stress, or troubles by dancing, drinking, and allowing oneself to be carefree.
The lyrics suggest that this is a place for everyone, regardless of whether they had a difficult day or if they're feeling great. There's no need to worry about being judged, as everyone is too busy enjoying the atmosphere and the music. The chorus of the song encourages individuals to let themselves go and express themselves freely without any inhibitions. It also highlights the idea that this event is a place where people don't need to feel tough or prove anything to anyone.
The U.S. Bombs are known for their punk rock music and political lyrics. However, "The Wig Out" offers a break from their heavy political messages and instead focuses on the idea of letting loose and having fun. The song may also be seen as a commentary on the punk rock or alternative music scene, which often encouraged people to embrace their individuality and reject societal norms.
