Before they played Dead Quote Olympics in Tilburg, Pelle said something like: ''How many of you are still in school?'' ''Do you hate school?'' ''Are you too cool for school?'' ''well..this song is all about it'' So yeah..that's pretty clear..

hmmmmmmmm

i think both of you are correct. The part about school has to be right because thats what pelle said its about,and it makes sense because the whole theory about "theyre dead think of your own ideas" can also be right because in school you have to think of your own ideas right? and you can't copy other people or say and do stuff that other people have already said and done.you have to fend for yourself. pelle said we hate school,well,wouldn't that be why we hate school?

deadquoteolympian registered: 4/15/2005 00:00 posts: 25	...... I'm a nerdy kid! pushes up glasses (no, not really) THE HIVES seem to hate know-it-alls from numerous references in different songs. What was i saying? Oh yes... A.K.A i.d.i.o.t thats a hard one. Feel free to toss your own faviroute HIVES song into the mix. Not that I could stop you, anyway.

AKA IDIOT........

The Hives where made fun of as little ones for being different, and not like everyone else..so they were called (i suppose) idiots (hence the name AKA IDIOT)...so in the song, they were planning to get back at the mean kids
(I know that im a screw up
I know im in a band
I know that i am up against a mighty mighty man
But im satisfied with being
Being one of the lucky few...
Who'll be the ones laughing now...
THE JOKE'S GONNA BE ON YOU!)
