about

The winter of 2007 the band began recording their last album in this lineup. Focusing on a more rock sound and also taking inspiration from the offseason at the Jersey shore.

lyrics

Porching it up Compton style when a fat man picked a fight
He said you can leave here with your drinks but you won't leave her with your life
We were shocked when Tommy J. smashed the bottle of fatboy's head
There was so much blood on the floor we were all sure he was dead

And I don't know why revenge tastes so sweet
But hurry up let's stomp him before this guy gets back on his feet

So, we stumbled down 25th street to New Jersey Avenue
Got a cab 20 bucks round trip that's the best you're gonna do
The trip across the island was longer than it normally takes
So we got out at Mr. D's to get us some cheesesteaks

I don't know why salt air tastes so sweet
But it doesn't really matter
