Linoleum
Possessions never meant anything to me
I'm not crazy
Well that's not true, I've got a bed, and a guitar
And a dog named Bob who pisses on my floor
That's right, I've got a floor
So what, so what, so what?
I've got pockets full of kleenex and lint and holes
Where everything important to me
Just seems to fall right down my leg
And on to the floor
My closest friend linoleum
Linoleum
Supports my head, gives me something to believe
That's me on the beachside combing the sand
Metal meter in my hand
Sporting a pocket full of change
That's me on the street with a violin under my chin
Playing with a grin, singing gibberish
That's me on the back of the bus
That's me in the cell
That's me inside your head
That's me inside your head
That's me inside your head

Friday night we'll be drinking Manischewitz
Going out to terrorize Goyim
Stomping shagitz, screwing shiksas
As long as we're home by Saturday morning
Cause hey, we're the Brews
Sporting anti-swastika tattoos
Oi Oi we're the boys
Orthodox, hesidic, O.G. Ois
Orthopedic, Dr. Mott good for
Waffle making, kicking through the shin
Reputation, gained through intimidation
Pacifism no longer tradition
Cause hey we're the Brews
Sporting anti-swastika tattoos
Oi Oi we're the Brews
The fairfax ghetto boys skinhead Hebrews
We got the might, psycho mashuganas
We can't lose a fight, as we are the chosen ones
Chutzpah driven, we battle then we feast
We celebrate, we'll separate our milkplates from our meat
We're the Brews
Sporting anti-swastika tattoos
Oi Oi we're the boys
Orthodox, hesidic, O.G. Ois
più bella

Il testo fa l'analogia fra la situazione politica (presumibilmente statunitense del 1994) e una festa arrivata alla fine. Non che abbia mai capito esattamente a quali dinamiche si riferisse (ne` mi sia mai importato di approfondire), pero` mi piaceva come sul finale passasse di colpo da un tono malinconico a uno reattivo.

Proprio quella canzone dei NoFX. La sentivo verso il '97, quando mi venne in mente che volevo un assembler portabile tutto mio. All'inizio si chiamava BULK, ma ricordava lo spam (bulk email) e poi era brutto, suonava brutto. Adottare "Linoleum" costo` il doversi inventare un acronimo tipo quelli dei titoli delle Giovani Marmotte, ma mi piaceva troppo.
