Black Mamba Lyrics

We've got one chance to break out
And we need it now
'Cause I'm sick and tired of waiting
Sick of this fucking apartment

Love me or leave me or rip me apart
This is the voice that I was given and
If you don't like it take a long walk
Off...

    I think this song is about them breaking through as a band and the scene that they are in. I think this is a song that is aimed at the critics not the fans in a way, saying that they don't really mind what they are saying about them because they like what they are doing and that is all that matters to them.

    The song black mamba is the academy is...'s one simple song to say that they are making music for themselves and they don't care about their mtv publicity. It is clearly said in when they state
    oh, mr. Magazine
    I never wrote one single thing for you
    or your so-called music scene
    you don't mean a thing to me


    and they also make reference to ignore what the critics say because they can just catch you off of your feet.

    I believe that this song is about them, in a sense. It's talking about how people can say what they want about them, and they don't care.
