Well I saw the thing comin’ out of the sky /
It had the one long horn, one big eye /
I commenced to shakin’ and I said OOH WEE… -
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about a 2023 update to no scrubs.
A lot of things have changed.
“Live at home with your mama” – covid hit a lot of families pretty hard, probably no shame in moving back home to take care of the elderly.
Don’t have your own car – sure let’s make the push for walkable cities and not contribute to pollution.
“Have a shorty but you don’t show love” – I mean yeah you’re still a scrub. Hug your fucking kids.

I mean, I don’t know I needed this until now. But now I really want more to already exist!

Reminds me of a song called: Pitchfork Kids (by AJR)
Loved it as a kid because I thought it was about a boy discovering one of the girls in his school was a werewolf and realizing he might be one too.

🎶 You know, it’s kinda hard just to get along today
Our subject isn’t cool, but he fakes it anyway
He may not have a clue and he may not have style
But everything he lacks, well, he makes up in denial 🎶

They had so many. Bugaboo. Scrub. Hmm teenage Dirtbag perhaps… what else, those types that wear Abercrombie and Fitch… umm Daytrippers, paperback writers, and Hurdy Gurdy Men. I’ll have to research but I like this train of thought.

Well there’s baby shark do doo…

Metal genre has a ton of songs like this that are like epic adventures! 3 off the top of my head that are amazing:
Unleash the Archers – Apex & Abyss albums
Queensryche – Operation Mindcrime -
Older song, but Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner by Warren Zevon is epic
The album it’s from, Excitable Boy, also features a song about a ghoulish murderer Excitable Boy and the classic Werewolves of London

I love songs like that because it gives me wonderful opportunities to workshop bits for my “professor/expert being interviewed for a documentary” character.

They need to make No Scrubs, but just “men” not even a scrub. Just. Men.
