| it's definitely about not being able to get it up, he's said it in interviews. because they get so much press in the UK talking about how they sleep with all these models and stuff, caleb wanted to kinda make fun of the whole thing. or something like that. | |

| the verses seem to be about a girl the writter was dating, she gets hooked on coke and starts messing around so he dumps her, the chorus seems like its all about impotence though. | |

| I'm kept hearing these lyrics wrong, espescially the last line. 'I'd come all over your party'....what I kept hearing was 'I'd come all over your BODY'...which actually makes a bit more sense. I dunno, someone help. | |

| I believe this song was written about an experience of caleb's in which he was doing coke with a super model and afterwards he couldn't get it up to have sex with her. A great and funny song. | |
