Primus - The Antipop Lyrics
The Earth it did crack open
on the day that I was born
and a thousand merry pranksters
came dancin' through the storm.
a howlin' out my mind
not knowin' years to come
I'd be shoutin' over din
I sucked information through the holes in my skull
as my belly gurgles hungry my mouth is always full.
I am Antipop; I'll run against the grain till the day I drop.
I am the Antipop; the man you cannot stop.
I plug into the tube,
but the stench of all that pretense
I cannot muddle through.
I lay on my back
and scan the radio
all that comes out my speakers
is a steady syrup flow.
I suck information through the holes in my skull
as my belly gurgles hungry my mouth is always full.
I stood by watching
and I seen 'em come and go.
I seen 'em make that million
then vanish in the snow.
They come upon you
like a pack of rabid hounds
as they slobber in your ears
and purge you with their sounds.
Pushing misinformation through the holes in my skull
my belly gurgles nauseous and still my mouth is full.
I am Antipop; I'll run against the grain till the day I drop.
I am the Antipop; the man you cannot stop.

The Earth it did crack open
On the day that I was born
And a thousand merry pranksters
Came dancin' through the storm.
I lay cradle bound
A howlin' out my mind
Not knowin' years to come
I'd be shoutin' over din
I sucked information through the holes in my skull
As my belly gurgles hungry my mouth is always full.
I am Antipop, I'll run against the grain till the day I drop.
I am the Antipop, the man you cannot stop.
As a young man,
I plug into the tube,
But the stench of all that pretense
I cannot muddle through.
I lay on my back
And scan the radio
All that comes out my speakers
Is a steady syrup flow.
I suck information through the holes in my skull
As my belly gurgles hungry my mouth is always full.
I stood by watching
And I seen 'em come and go.
I seen 'em make that million
Then vanish in the snow.
They come upon you
Like a pack of rabid hounds
As they slobber in your ears
And purge you with their sounds.
Pushing misinformation through the holes in my skull
My belly gurgles nauseous and still my mouth is full.
I am Antipop, I'll run against the grain till the day I drop.
I am the Antipop, the man you cannot stop
Geddy Lee and Les Claypool are best bassists ever on this screwed reality
Big bang
Sweet freakin jesus, these 3 can find the best grooves to funk with your mind man!
The intro of this song is amazing! You can so tell that this band was hugely influenced by RUSH.. If I heard this intro for the first time and someone asked me who played this? If I didn't know better I would have said it was Rush... This is exactly a kind of riff and rhythm that Rush would do. But yet original and unique to Primus. I love it.
Actually if you took Rush and King Crimson and blended the two, you would get the Primus sound.
This song blows my mind. STILL.
2019 and primus still sucks!! 🤟🏻
They still suck!
And always will.
never heard of them
Funty Case try jerry was a race car driver by Primus. It is truly a masterpiece.
You got caught with your hand in the cookie jar and knowing all I know I about all this I am still willing to let it go but you still keep on. You had absolutely no right to go about all this the way you did if I was wrong in saying this why does it look as if your covering up guilt instead of being respectful towards one another.

Strive dove grey p&p state cheeses? Seen Jon got a unemployed motor?
Such an original sound, and every album has its own distinct flavor.
This sounds a bit like Metallica. But yeah, other Primus songs are so different from every bands.
Duuude, this song Z U C C S!
I am the Antipop, I'm the man you cannot stop.
Listened for the first time in 2019.. thanks to my bass teacher... my fault i completely ignored them... my god what a lack!!! I'm flashed
Puto Mr Brain! Thanks for your drums!
Love Primus also ; )
"The man, the myth, the pseudo-Mexican... Brain."

🎸🎸🎸🎸 PRIMUS 🤘🤘🤘🤘 Keep on jaming 🇳🇱🇳🇱 RESPECT 🇳🇱🇳🇱
Gotcha! is also quite good. Take a listen to "Words and music from da Lowlands", "Funky Farm". Not to mention Tres Manos, Rudeboy , and the boyz...
If I was a wrestler this would be my theme song.
This is my favorite primus album. I feel like i am the only person with that opinion.
Outta of the 9 albums they released this is my 3rd favorite
Cos there is soo many great ones. It is very hard to decide... seas of chese for me
Me acuerdo cuando los vi en el rock out fest como en el 2014, no los cachaba mucho y puta que son buenos ctm awante !!
claypool forever.
Death to death
0:38 *"They're heeeerre.."*
Best album !
OMG Primus created a song about me. great one just like most of the cheese they put on wax.
High how are you

Anyone who says Primus Sucks is an obnoxious cunt.
Yeah yeah — I get the meaning.
Like, Primus Sucks which means they’re cool and unique and also Les said it years ago as a joke. Woooooo~!
Just stop, do you realise how annoying it is? Every fucking Primus video I go on is nothing but: “PRIMUS SUCKS LOLOLOLOLOL I’M SO FUCKING COOL”.
I’ve only been following Primus for 2 days and I’m already sick of it. And don’t even think of giving me that shitty entitled fanboy garbage either “nuhh I’ve been a fan for 20 years I can say what I like” no you can’t, get the fuck outta here.
you suck
Damn, takes a little bit to get into it, but it's damn good
Primus is like mr.bungle was....always new
Fatjammy stuckjarr of pudding
je kiff plus que toi!
aunt jemmima
sucks, in the best possible way...
I am Anti-Pop and I'll run against the grain 'till the day I drop.

thurd u the first time
chick trolling me digging Primus off of POF . So, wut she tells me all about IT . "I LIKE THAT ." in a voice i only imagined brought by care of the ventriloquist, Jeff Dunham ... -so, GoogleIt .
Sorry but thrash or die.
You know something, you suck!
reminds me of metal slug
boredkid1235 k
I’d shoot that fucker in the head, yes I would
I wanna go fishin with Les... I bet the fish stage dive off his god damn boat!
PRIMUS SUCKS!🤘🏻🤯😵
Why are people trolling Pirmus Sucks comments? It makes things very confusing, resulting in unnecessary explanations. So yeah, Primus Sucks!!!
Primus sucks!
Les uses the 2nd fret on the G string a lot in this album, I just noticed!
Primus still sucks
I really like Primus and Les claypool is one of the coolest guys I ever met . Some say Primus sucks .... Maybe the do but I don't care I really like this band. A little dark sometimes but that's ok . Still good stuff.
James Erwin lmao all these fake fans
I'm surprised that as far back as I went into the comments on this video only two other people made a connection with this song and Frank Zappa. This song is basically "I Am the Slime" by Zappa.
primus thank you for this track
PRIMUS SUCK'S
I feel like this is the "black sheep" of all Primus records. Amazing album though
The intro reminds me of "Black Sabbath" by Black Sabbath.
Simply the worst bassist ive ever heard. Primus Sucks.
shut up pussy
@Diego Galvez you are but a baby
This is the last album that they had that rocked. Everything since then has been pretty weak. I miss Brain. At least Herb is back.
Primus goes Rob Zombie
PRIMUS SUCKS!
This has always been one of my favorite albums of their's. It sucks that it was the last one with Brain, but it is most definitely one of their more underrated albums. It's also a bit heavier, in my opinion, which is awesome to hear Claypool's rapid fire slapping. Pretty damn snazzy. Primus sucks 4 eva!!
I forgot how really incredible this album is 15 years after owning it.!
I loved it when it came out but it seems even better all this time later
PRIMUS SUCKS!!!!!
They suck so hard geez
Primus was in Lancaster and they sucked so
I am the antismurf, I'll smurf against the smurf until the day I smurf. I am the antismurf, I'll smurf against the smurf until the day I smurf. I am the antismurf, I'll smurf against the smurf until the day I smurf. I am the antismurf. The smurf you cannot smurf.
Just like don't ever type anything like this ever again pls.
ultramarine fanboy?
The Best Album of Primus even withouth mr. Tim Herb A.
my foot is on the wrong leg
y'all know Les has said he's tired of the "primus sucks" thing, right?
Too bad for him then.
Les sucks.
then they should make a good album
@tilen knez you're an idiot
Primus sucks!
Kinda sounds like Frank Zappa
Goddamn Primus Sucks! God I love this album...
I love the ode to THE MERRY PRANKSTERS.
2 is gay
this song drum track is fucking siiiick!! what other songs are like this?
fuck pop music
I want to learn to play this stuff but I dont know how to slap and I also don't have a 6 string bass
This was during a time when music had balls. No "Fridays" or "Stupid Hoes", or even "Gangnam Style" any of that Justin Bieber and Taylor Swift bullshit. This was from a time with grunge and alternative metal.
I don't feel like that's fair. There's a lot of modern artists that play like this but they aren't very well known
Primus sucks
Pork Roll Egg and Guava brain dead loser.
Luxury Girls ur retarded
Nice music
I fucking hate youtube comments
PRIMUS SUCKS!!!!
no they don't they're awesome stop saying that
"Primus Sucks" was Primus' slogan sorta for a long time. if you watch some of their concerts, die-hard fans would be chanting it. People don't say it as much now though. When someone says Primus sucks, they mean that they're awesome.
OMG I CANT BE BOTHERED TO TROLL YOU ANYMORE
Sounds like somebody is a fan.
Ciaran Cush brain dead loser.

Patience is a virtue.

Made my own primus t-shirt in college. Just a plain white shirt and a sharpie. Drew a baby bottle on the front and on the back wrote; Primus Sucks!

Im guessing its b/c babies, suck on it.
