Bastard Wants To Hit Me Lyrics

He says he knows me
But I don't know that guy
He's waving at me
But he looks kind of mad

Some crazy bastard wants to hit me
He's waving me over so he can hit me
But I don't know that guy
But I'm not going over there
Some crazy bastard...

Personally I like to think that its more about the experiance of trying to get away from things that you dont understand. Just the tone of it seems so confused and afraid. Its very emotive in my opinion. I like that that emotion could be more important than a story.

There is more going on than just a random guy in a parking lot. There are others involved, as he has been told the guy says he knows me, but I don't know that guy. Given the rest of the album, I'd say this song is part of the 'Experimental Film'.

This song is about somebody suffering from paranoia. Somebody waves at him in a parking lot and, he is almost paralized with fear thinking the person wants to cause him harm.
