truthbealiar, i think he says "haha, I'm sorry I went to meijer's for a second, but I'm back now and i got t-shirts for everybody!" cause mars doesnt make any sense. I was wondering if anyone else noticed that part! This is a great song. I think its about some girl he likes, but he can't have her, and its just making it worse that she always wears tube tops, so he's saying, 'stop! ban the tube top tonight!'

I agree with musicispowerful (well...the explanation part). He's crazy about this girl and he can't have her. Because she's always wearing tube tops, he's more attracted to her. The song's not about hating tube tops. He actually loves them. But he's trying to get over this girl because he knows he can't have her and she's not letting him. =) I think it's cute.
