Ouch! godAWFUL set up the line by alluding to the fact that maybe he was engaged in some two-lady variant of a Rusty Trombone. But, alas, gA has been rejected by both women of importance in his life

Though a great opening line for an erotic novel, this refers to godAWFUL’s two love interests: presumably his ex-gf (behind) and the girl he lusts for (front)

GodAWFUL implements a call and reponse technique throughout this section with a second main vocal track. This technique adds authenticity to a train-of-thought narrative, as most internal dialog overlaps as you free associate. At this point, gA has made up his mind that he is not returning to New Haven, the source of his woes


To be honest, if creepy-ass buildings like this were in the middle of my city reminding me that I will never go to Yale University, and, that my life is a failure, I’d want to leave too.

Posturing possible explanations for this overwhelming feeling he has to escape. It could be that this was destined to be (Fuck you, Calvinism!). Self-proclaimed alcohol connoisseur, godAWFUL believes that alcohol (a vessel by which many people avoid, or run away from, their problems) could be the culprit. Or possibly, it’s the dead skunk on the Connecticut Turnpike that’s causing this feeling

If I were a betting man, I’d go with a combination of all three, but only if lady troubles were sprinkled on top

Brother AWFUL begins the tale mid-intoxicated cruise down, what we can only assume is the interstate, as most residential streets do not have posted speed limits of more than 45 mph

Owning a Toyota Camry is like a rite of passage among young adults with large genetalia. In fact, a “Jean-Claude Van Cam” was my first car, and it looked like this:

Much like a “Flight or Fight” instinct, godAWFUL has no idea what event, person, action, situation, etc. he needs to distance himself from. In this instance, the action of escaping is more important than knowing WHY he needs to

Ever the wordsmith, godAWFUL hits us with a double entendre right off the bat. “Logic” is no longer with him, and he doesn’t care if he catches back up; he is apathetic and is now throwing caution to the wind

  1. References logic as both “critical inferencing” and making smart choices.

He is referring to his brilliantly-worded lyrics, which are considered by some to be too complex to be commercially successful or popular on the radio. These doubters are telling him to make his lyrics more simplistic and stereotypically African-American.
