Van Halen/David Lee RothI'm tryin' to think of what to do next... - Eddie Van Halen (in the middle of his unaccompanied solo on the 2004 tour) | The title is just to let people know there's a new album, call it Mustard On Your Leg or something. Here's the new one, call it Yogurt! - Eddie Van Halen |

Junior went to the Van Halen concert Wednesday night. The group was on their 1991-1993 tour to promote their album "For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge". Junior went to school the next day with his new tour shirt. His friends thought it was radical. His 9th grade homeroom teacher didn't. The back of the shirt had the abbreviation "F.U.C.K." with the letters big, prominent, and orangey-red and the periods being colored a dim dark blue. So, from a distance like say, across the room, what does the shirt say to you? The teacher told Junior to wear his shirt inside out or go to the principal's office. Junior just sat in his seat, grinning. The teacher then directed,"Get up! To the office. Right now." So he proudly strolls down the hall to the principal's office. Jamie walks by him and looks back at his shirt. Jamie's smirkin'. Junior steps into the office proudly proclaiming,"I heard you missed me, I'm back!". The principal then gave him one week's suspension and called Junior's mom to pick him up and schedule an office meeting with her. She asked why and the principal said that her son has repeatedly got in trouble, then he asked her, "Have you seen Junior's grades?" Submitted by: 5150

The Dated Lyrics: 'I've got my back against the record machine.'
Why They're Dated: This is to add to the above statement. Some have interpreted this line very differently record machine = record label Some would say this song was written as a stab towards record labels pressuring groups to spit out big hit singles at will. Listen to the song in this context and it takes on a whole new light. Am I right? I don't think we'll ever know.
Ed Note: I was under the impression "record machine" in the song was referring to a jukebox. In any case, the song is dated - most everything is CDs now. Submitted by: orion350z
| "Jump"
The Dated Lyrics: Can't you see me standing here?
I've got my back against the record machine. Why They're Dated: We old fogeys who grew up in the 1980s might even still call it the record machine, but these days it plays CDs.
