Primus - DMV Lyrics
I've been to hell. I spell it...I spell it DMV
Anyone that's been there knows precisely what I mean
Stood there and I've waited and choked back the urge to scream
And if I had my druthers I'd screw a chimpanzee-call it pointless
Perhpas you may know vaguely what I mean
I sit back and smoke away huge chunks of memory
As I slowly inflict upon myself a full lobotomy-call it pointless
Barbecues, tea kettles, gobs of axle grease
There comes a time for every man to sail the seas of cheese
Now, life's a bowl of bagel dogs, but there are unpleasantries
Cold toilet seats, dentist chairs and trips to DMV-call it pointless
I've been to hell. I spell it...I spell it DMV
I've stood in line and waited near an hour and fifteen
And if I had my druthers I'd screw that chimpanzee-call it pointless

Primus DMV Comments
At 54, I just discovered Primus for the first time.
I'd heard OF them but never heard them. Lived my whole life and never heard a bass.
I must say that I appreciate all of you guys commenting on the censorship that has been whirling its way through YouTube. If you're interested in censorship and the birth of all this nonsense, check out the PMRC Senate hearings. Frank Zappa, John Denver and Dee Snider fought against Tipper Gore and the "parental advisory" music label.
They wanted to slap a fucking parental advisory label on a John Denver album because they felt his song "Rocky Mountain High" was about marijuana. Anyone who hears that song and has been to the great Rocky Mountains would know exactly what he is talking about....and it's not about pot.
Great song, too bad you censored it. Bull Shit
Oh oui la deudeuche <3
THC is censored? Really?I
I hate cold toilet seats.
Come to my city and I will see your performance every dam time till the day I die.
CENSORED CRAP!
🤘👽🤘
Les claypool is one of the best tap bassist I have ever heard
I remember being in 6th grade discovering Primus by stealing one of my older brothers CD's. Still one of my favorite bands (good weightlifting music).
One of my all time favorite Primus songs
Primus: "When I need relief I call it THC"
Vevo: *WOOF WOOF WOOF OINK*
Was this still "herb" or "brains" drumming?
Wtf is up with the censors for weed? lol
Les had long hair???
Cutey...
Primus sucks
Pat Duffy- Plan B Virtual Reality
You know what this video needs A TOILET
that man has a lot of minor changes in his look
408 puppies
You really bleeped shit out of this video?
Point Les, Point Lessssssss
stop removing my fucking comment. i SAID: VEVO thinks it's fine to fuck monkeys but not ok to dabble in THC. just think about that for a moment, but don't think about it TOO hard....
MTV were the ones who censored this
This guy made me look up and read all kinds of stuff today.
I had to look up Lee Van Cleef (my favorite number, by the way) and read Van Cleef's wikipedia, then watch a bunch of "For a Few Dollars More" clips. Now I have to watch THAT whole damn movie again, thank you.
Had to look up Bocephus, read about the dummy, and then listened to a bunch of Hank Williams.
And finally look up Barrington Disambiguation, then, on a hunch, Barrington Hall (Berkeley, California) only to realize that I trod the streets working labor very near this historic place before it closed. Made me wonder how my life would have been colored had I stumbled through those doors in my wanderings.
Dude below is a gemius. Welcome to the Guild of Several Severeally Smart Sentient Sapian Sapiens.
Savvy?
" When I need relief.. I spell it T.H.C. perhaps you may know uuuuuuuuhhhhh vaguely what I mean ".
while not as good as welcome to this world or bob. or as impressive as my name is mud, this is still a classic
Why the fuck does Les Claypool have 6 forms of appearance?
he is the sum-total of all his time, as are you and I.
@Grecco Buckliano Can you explain to me his appearances in order?
@Crimson Lens OFFICIAL No. But I can tell you that he does appear in this video......and then he doesn't.
I am sure of it.
i started playing guitar back in 1968, when these guys first came out I did not know what to think, today I love it, I really like that beat, strong steady drivin beat...turn it up!!!
you tube asks if we want to buy their service without adventising?? I will any time buy a sevice where I get all censorship is removed!!! Just hit me with free speech that is ok I can take it. ;)
Is this a prequel or a sequel to "Jerry Was A Racecar Driver?"
When he says he'd "screw a chimpanzee" I think he's talking about the annoying diversity hire behind the counter at the DMV. This makes Les that much cooler in my book.
Larry on geeetar ladies and gents.
aah those were the days, not a single phone visible at that concert
He's actually referring to his private beach "Point Les"
Les HILARIOUS!!!
Slayer made a wise choice.
Man, I don't know who this is, but they really suck!!
This means something.
Я конечно извиняюсь,но что идущий к реке (серж дур-дачник) забыл на 3:08
Was at this show in Berkeley when filmed, was amazing! They did tell the audience they were filming. Love this song!
PRIMUS rocks
When I need relief I call it -DOG BARK-
I really like the way these boys harmonize. We should have them on the show.
VEVO is pointless...(why does it exist)
Just got my permit.
This song is so much more relatable now.
Yeah he can talk about fucking a primate but can’t say THC or smoke, fuck censorship
PRIMUS SUX...GO !!!!
third time ive ran out of the DMV line in sheer terror this week now smoking
Primus suck!!!!
T R I P P Y
Just spent an hour and 15 minutes at the DMV this morning!
My favorite Primus song
The best song ever
Been there for more than 4 years now.
So much better w the live vid. That was dooope
Mikael Akerfeldt was amazing slapping bass too
i slowed down to x0.5 and its sounded like slowly heavy metal playing in the background
Les Claypool is literally the only man who plays his bass completely on it's neck.
Mtv guys, not vevo. Video is from 93
Nothing like moshing around in that baseball infield dirt of the Greek theatre to primus and having the black boogers after 🙌
I've never heard anyone make their guitar sound like Larry Lalonde's
Wow, I think he just said, if I had my druthers I’d screw a chimpanzee
Watching this while sitting at the DMV. I can attest to 100% of everything said during this fine tune.
Pause at 1:15. Hey dat me in the bright green shirt. I pop up a few times in that front row. Great show.
I want to spend a year in the woods drinking moonshine and playing bass with Les Claypool. Could sure learn alot.
Horseshit that we're censoring videos on the Internet
I don't know what you mean due to the dogs and pigs you fuckers let out
Is it true that the druther’s store saw a major sales boom when this song came out?
Les really reminds me of The Nostalgia Critic.
Reminds me of tarkus in the intro
WTF they sencor pot and weed from the song im canadian its legal get with the time youtube shame on you and your house
MTV censored this when they aired it in the 90's.
I need you!!!
Sad that THC is censored.
What concert is featured in this video?
1:15
Buzz Osborne
King Buzzo
3:03 a wild Hamlet appears
Great music
*PRIMUS SUCKS*
Why just why
That bass
WWE Wrestler Shawn Micheals on the drums? 😂😂😂
why the dog barking and pig squeals?
As a forty-five year old father and husband I would like to thank the good people at VEVO for generously censoring the music of my youth.Now it can no longer corrupt my tender impressionable mind. I feel so much better knowing that I will now grow up to be normal. Thanks again VEVO...You are everything that is wrong with everything.
MTV censored this, not VEVO.
Music today is SO CONSERVATIVE
Been to hell I'll spell it, I spell it U M G
In middle school..
Friends: Blink 182, Green Day, Fallout Boy
Me: Primus
why is his chin so pointy in this is my question
i like how the drummer wears overalls
I spell it DNC!
*Sail the seas of cheese*
Everyone saying vevo sucks its not vevo ita mtv this is from the mtv version
Love that custom built Pork Pie
kit! Hey Tim, what ever happened to it?
Nothing like early 90's Primus.
Crushing it after all these years. Man, the 90’s were great for music.
this song sucks
"You know what this video needs? A toilet."
1:56 "Look Butthead, a toilet! See? I told ya!"
Dog bark is dank
