No Picture cinn Professional Badass	#1 by cinn mcrickson at Feb 20, 1979 at 7:34 AM EST
	oh yeah the lyrics are way wrong by the way, you got to fix them.

No Picture Jacob Lead Player	#2 by Jacob Julian at Apr 29, 1983 at 5:23 PM EST
	this is an amazingly written song and deserves much more credit than it gets, along with all of riot act i agree with heinekin helen on the meaning

No Picture phil Average	#3 by phil gdfgr at Dec 4, 1986 at 5:02 AM EST
	I'm in love with this song. I play it once and I end up playing it 5 times after. To me I think the song is about him trying to move on from his old lover that deep down inside he wishes he could be together with. Of course there is obvious signs that would say this song is about a death of a loved one. I do not disagree with that interpretation but I like mine better, hahaha....Can't wait to see this song live in concert June 26th!

No Picture Aaron Wanna Be	#4 by Aaron Howe at Feb 15, 1992 at 9:46 AM EST

No Picture jacob Average	#5 by jacob ap at Jul 20, 1992 at 7:07 AM EST
	why has no one commented on this?! i think if this song had been written by john lennon it would be considered one of the greatest ever.

No Picture Hey Retard Wanna Be	#6 by Hey Retard at May 5, 1997 at 5:17 PM EST
	i know i keep commenting on this song and its prob getting annoying, but i just cant get over how fuckin amazing this song is, ive listened to it like twice a day for like 6 months and ive yet to get sick of it once(the only other song i can say tht about is off he goes, which im listening to now) the lyrics to this song are stunning, and get me every time-just brilliant

No Picture KISS is the gre Average	#7 by KISS is the greatest at Sep 24, 2003 at 5:13 AM EST
	What a beautiful song, how can one man posses so much talent! Eddie surely is a god! Its always hard to understands what songs are about, mainly because they mean so many different things to different people. To me this song is about trying to move on when other people are holding you back and you are holding yourself back, even though u know no matter how bad things are, they can always get better. And maybe we should pay more attention to the little, unimportant things in life, the "rusty signs" and not turn our backs on them. thank you eddie.
