Pissed
Unite against Society Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Always broke and I don't see what
You want from me, nothing's all I've got
A pack of cigarettes, a bottle of booze
Walking round the streets with nothing to lose
Cause I'm pissed, pissed, pissed
Say I'm pissed, pissed, pissed
Say I'm pissed, pissed, pissed
Say I'm pissed
Cause I'm pissed, pissed, pissed
Say I'm pissed, pissed, pissed
Say I'm pissed, pissed, pissed
Say I'm pissed
Drunk and stoned
A gig in town and you got no cash
They take you out like a piece of trash
Forget the gig, forget the noise
Forget hanging out with the boys
Cause I'm pissed, pissed, pissed
Say I'm pissed, pissed, pissed
Say I'm pissed, pissed, pissed
Say I'm pissed
Cause I'm pissed, pissed, pissed
Say I'm pissed, pissed, pissed
Say I'm pissed, pissed, pissed
Say I'm pissed
Drunk and stoned
In this life when you got no dough
You're just a number in the horror show
You got no rights, you're not on the list
They think you just don't exist
Cause I'm pissed, pissed, pissed
Say I'm pissed, pissed, pissed
Say I'm pissed, pissed, pissed
Say I'm pissed
Cause I'm pissed, pissed, pissed
Say I'm pissed, pissed, pissed
Say I'm pissed, pissed, pissed
Say I'm pissed
Drunk and stoned

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Pissed" by Unite against Society portray a sense of frustration and disillusionment with society, particularly regarding financial struggles and feelings of being marginalized or overlooked. The singer expresses a sense of being constantly broke and feeling like they have nothing to offer, emphasizing this with lines like "Always broke and I don't see what / You want from me, nothing's all I've got." This sets the tone for a narrative of someone who is fed up with their circumstances and is lashing out in anger.


The repeated refrain of "Cause I'm pissed, pissed, pissed" serves as a declaration of the singer's emotional state - they are angry and resentful. The references to being drunk and stoned suggest a means of coping with their frustrations and a form of escapism from the harsh realities they are facing. It also reflects a sense of rebellion and disregard for societal norms or expectations.


The second verse delves into a scenario where the individual lacks the financial means to participate in social activities, like going to a concert. Instead of enjoying themselves, they are treated poorly and made to feel like they do not belong. This experience further fuels their anger and leads them to reject the idea of conforming to societal expectations and norms, as seen in lines like "Forget the gig, forget the noise / Forget hanging out with the boys."


The final verse delves deeper into themes of social inequality and feeling ignored or devalued. The singer portrays a sense of being dehumanized and reduced to a mere statistic in a system that does not care about their well-being. The repetition of being "pissed" serves as a defiant stance against this marginalization and a refusal to be silenced or overlooked. Overall, the song captures a sense of rebelliousness and defiance in the face of societal injustices and personal struggles.


Line by Line Meaning

Always broke and I don't see what
Constantly lacking money and I don't understand what you expect from me


You want from me, nothing's all I've got
You desire something from me, but all I have to offer is nothing


A pack of cigarettes, a bottle of booze
I rely on cigarettes and alcohol for comfort


Walking round the streets with nothing to lose
Roaming the streets with a sense of reckless abandon


Cause I'm pissed, pissed, pissed
Because I am angry, frustrated, and fed up


Say I'm pissed, pissed, pissed
Expressing my anger and discontent


Drunk and stoned
Intoxicated and under the influence of drugs


A gig in town and you got no cash
An event happening in town but you have no money


They take you out like a piece of trash
Treating you as if you are worthless and disposable


Forget the gig, forget the noise
Ignoring the event and all the commotion that comes with it


Forget hanging out with the boys
No longer interested in socializing with male friends


In this life when you got no dough
In this existence when you have no money


You're just a number in the horror show
You are simply a statistic in the dreadful spectacle of life


You got no rights, you're not on the list
You lack basic privileges and are not acknowledged


They think you just don't exist
Others believe you are invisible and insignificant
