Primus - Mama Didn't Raise No Fool Lyrics
The best of times, the worst of times,
the times you can't ignore.
Sometimes you bite the bullet
and flip flop on the floor.
and they tell you what to do.
They set your face on fire
then stomp it out with their shoes.
I ain't no fool.
Mama didn't raise no fool.
The times I can't complain
are the times I do the most.
On a diet of black coffee
These eunuchs in their prada
and Gucci flavored clothes.
Wouldn't know a fresh perspective
if it bit 'em up on the nose.
I ain't no fool.
Mama didn't raise no fool.
just say as they do.
No flavor's quite so bitter
as the taste of one's own shoe.
I ain't no fool.
Mama didn't raise no fool.

Primus Mama Didn't Raise No Fool Comments
The riff reminds me of born of a broken man by RATM
This tune wow😊 thankyou for the energy. ✌
Yeuteamo
The Ryan Martinie before Ryan Martinie
I can't sit still,when I hear PRIMUS!
Primus Sucks
Yeuteamo
They set your face on fire And stomp it out with their shoes
The “mama didn’t raise no” sounds like the fuckn audio filter that everyone uses on TikTok
Fuck me for being a gen x kid and knowing this shit
This is such a f****** perfect song 😍😍😍
PROZAC BUTTERED TOAST😂😂😂😂
that bass is insane
Groovy..
I'm no fool, no sure Re! I'm gonna live to be 103!!!!!
Anybody who would pick this song apart is jealous. Also, James Maynard Keenan is the most talented douchebag twat of a lying conman running around today. I see comments about him below and blah blah blah. If Les Claypool is involved in making a song, just stand back and shut the fuck up. At least he puts out albums consistently and does not base his subject matter on venemous, self-pitying shit. Not that every TOOL song does. Or those other two projects. Hooker With a Penis is my favorite TOOL offering. FFFFUUUUUUCK you Jimmy (Maynard Keenan) It is tough when you grow up in anger loving TOOL and then you see the light about them. They are dry and OVER. They peaked 20 years ago. Chevelle sounds like them. So do others. Claypool's stuff transcends TOOL, rage against the machine is what you get when JMK takes a greasy shit. Stay away from picking apart Primus. It is a litmus test by which we identify the fools. I'm getting a bit revved up. I'll have to leave it there for now.....
I used to candyflip to this album so often.
Larry lalonde > tom morello
This song is hilarious and stellar
This is too simple for Primus. Doesn't fit.
You can tell Fred Durst helped with the production in this particular one.
you are drunk
Josh Mosh Lol I wish I was! But you can just barely hear it on some parts. Look it up, he helped a little bit with the production and some random stuff.
BLIND ILLUSION is the way THE SANE ASYLUMN claypools first record before primus
Josh Mosh Thanks, I'll be sure to check it out!
I don’t know why everyone is dissing on this song so much, like it has Tom Morello in it (from RATM) and it does sound pretty nice. And one of my favorite songs from Primus. (Infact Antipop is my favorite album)
I have the same Feeling about Primus,specialy I Like this CD "Anti pop
Mama raised 22 fools.
10 more
I seen them live , it was insane . The concert was like 5 hours long .. I love primus
Yeah those are the best, I saw that once. The other times they were limited by like...county noise ordinances and fest schedules. But still dope.
Like the eye creepsssssss
The face soooooo creep
Mama didn't raise no fool ? That's a double negative, dummy.
Not if ya got bad grammar it ain't
I'm the antipop.
Ivanyi Attila You'll run against the grain til the day you drop?
Primus shops at kmart and pays with little poo poos
In my opinion, this is without a doubt, this is Primus' worst song to date. However, even though it is bad for Primus, it is still great music.
That's how good Primus is!!!
Well everyone has a right to an opinion and your opinion sucks
Primus sucks XD
As les would say “Please don’t get mad”
3:41 - 3:43 this part of bass is cool.
Gucci flavored clothes
RATM also sucks!
1:40 <3
this my favorite song on anti pop such true n real
classic
Love this
that tone tho soooo diirrrtttyyy!
Les' punk bass chords are badass. I'm talking about the shape of the chord on the A, D, and G string which happen to be in the shape of a punk chord on guitar.
Power chords
Well, one thing is sure: PRIMUS won't never be a "Wall Mart" product, PRIMUS old fans bitching about the sound of this album, but "gudafuck" with them?...always they want PRIMUS repeats themselves over and over again?
Xibbalba i actually bought this album at wal mart when it came out 😄
S.R Woodward cuz I special ordered a few Primus cos from walmart
sonzera
TOM MORELLOOOO :D
AHHHHH TAHT SOLO KICKS AASSSSSS
claypool AND Morello? damn, thats like when maynard james keenan did know your enemy with RATM
infectedcumbubble420 ikr fucking great dude
Adam Jones lived with Tom Morello for years before ratm and tool
Tim Alexander did drums for puscifer and early a perfect circle too... primus has been connected with everyone lol
very RATM.
+Rico Horton Tom Morello is playing guitar.
@Andrew Page yes and it's a beautiful mix of sound and groove.
I hear Rage .. Born of a broken man
+Randy Garda we all are born broken only when we all c this can we mend our selfs
Obvious Tom Morello is Obvious
@Aidan Southwick Redundant... Boring
Tom Morello!!!!!!!!!!!!
@никита лобанов Hehehehe...morello plays here..it's easy to feel it...one player did the difference! But Brain still fucks my brain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Heavy as shit when you think about it
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
wwhat up with whole not bein a full??? eh, them dam pachyderms packin heat.
@TheDeftonesVault Ahhh yeah i remember now, taking the shit out of these guys or something. Yeah I'll take a look at their first album, didn't realise they had earlier albums, thanks for the heads up xD
@TheDizeazedKiller And Primus not being energetic. I meant listen to Primus' first album & just go down the line.
6 months ago - This is total shit
3 months ago - Oh i remember this... this is shit.
Today - Wait, haven't i heard this before? I don't remember it not being so shit.
It seems the more i listen to this stuff the less shit it sounds. Maybe if i come back by accident in another 3 months it might actually sound good. lol
TheDizeazedKiller how bout 6 years later? Lol
raydog0 he absolutely loves it now
6 years later: this is THE SHIT
Hopefully you don't ever make it back
@TheDeftonesVault Have no idea what i originally posted. I'm assuming i said something about SOAD.... I'll look at their first album then lol.
@Quiltfish LOL just realised you meant me. Your a fgt and a mag :D.
Honestly can't remember what i commented and a cbf looking through it but i do know for certain all you are is a mgt, clearly evident by the way you reply. :)
@TheDizeazedKiller One song. Listen to their first album. System isn't mainstream.
Detuned my bass E string to B for this song.
The dirty buzz actually suits it.
@blacked3mirror
lmao whoa there killer...no need to get butt hurt over a trifle of a comment ;)
occupy deez nuts!
@jinzodude Yes, he was. You couldn't tell unless you see the bass solo clip, but he was.
@Quiltfish Wasn't claypool also in blind illusion?
my favorite guitarist and favorite bassist in one song :o
@Charlizardine What? Why? Him playing with Serj is a good thing, no?
@jrmwigga5555 weird is Emilie autumn. Weird is Mindless Self Indulgence. SUPER fuckign weird is the left rights :)
@TheDizeazedKiller
define "weird bands". "Curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back"
Damn I need a 5 string bass for this
@Quiltfish Thanks. He played with Serj. Now I fucking hate him. Kinda ruined Primus for me.
when I first hear this song, after it ended.. All what I could say was only: Oh f**k this was perfect! :)
@Outlierdrummer No... RATM Sounds like the intro rift.
@Quiltfish Yeah Tom just played with Serj for the Gate 21 Remix on the Imperfect remixes album.
I came here to listen to some good music, and upon reading the comments, I'm the only one. Does everybody have sand it their vagina or something?
@TheDizeazedKiller Trust me, as a sensible System of a Down fan, all of the band's fans are not like murtadha. Every fanbase has it's retards.
@5tonyvvvv then we'll find a new thing to make songs with =) something like every instrument plays seperately for like 4 of 5 notes :p
On a diet of Black Coffee and Prozac butter toast!
What does that have to do with song
Its in the lyrics of the song man haha
Breakfast of champions
Nothing wrong with this shit but its a little monotonal for my taste, and it has no goddam energy.
I came here after seeing it being in a top 10 of weird bands... I should have realised it was going to be boring when the top band was System of the down... Thats mainstream in my books.
Hearing my favorite guitarist and favorite bassist play in the same song...... my ears just came.
@Outlierdrummer
That's that why they're in the Funk/Metal bin. Primus Sucks!!!!!
@Hulamonkey45 im pretty sure every1 knows who he is..
This was pretty good thanks youtube for allowing music to be heard
@Quiltfish this riff play morello, he is guest on this album ;)
@Outlierdrummer No surprise there.Tom Morello has a tendency to do that.
@Quiltfish it's true. Larry LaLonde is a seriously underrated musician.
@Hulamonkey45 Larry LaLonde is nuts. I'll see about getting some of his earlier stuff (Posessed, Blind Illusion) uploaded. Huh, just read he played with Serj Tankian recently too.
@smegmasaurus the best comment i've ever read on youtube. I salute you.
@smegmasaurus word
@jek21 They all kick ass. Everything Les touches turns to gold and fills my ears with rainbow flavored orgasms.
1 person's mama raised a fool!
oh they do have songs that arent fast talk, i dont mind the fast talk but it got old
@jek21 daed right-i love it too.
PRIMUS SUCKS!
Fuck all you "trve" fans that don't like this album. This albums kicks ass.
@7LucasCabrera71 haha, kinda does have the same thing in the beginning doesnt it, never thought of it before
seeing primus tomorrow!!!!
best band ever
The first 2 seconds, I though It was Antichrist Superstar , lol
tom morello and primus cant beat that
