No Picture sharon Wanna Be	#1 by sharon howell at Jan 8, 1999 at 4:18 AM EST
	Thanks nayr for clarifying that specific line in this song because so many people are often confused by what that truly means. I've had to explain that to alot of my friends over the years in defense of Rage. People are often offended by the use of certain words without any regard to why the word is being used or within which context it's being used.

No Picture †grave† Lead Player	#2 by †grave† f at Jan 19, 2004 at 9:58 AM EST
	It's amazing what people will believe if it's the television you learn it from. Gotta be my All-time favorite rage song of all time. Perfect balance between the two end's of Zack's vocal spectrum: Rap-----Out of control Rage. Tom also does some of the most creative guitar riffs in this song. Try listening to the song while canceling out Zack's vocals. It's something to behold.
