Snot was an American nu metal/hardcore punk band from Santa Barbara, California that gained huge critical acclaim in the 1990's. The band was formed in 1995 by singer Lynn Strait, the former bassist of local metal band First Strike/Indica, and guitarist Mike Doling, formerly of Kronix. After building a strong following with performances in Los Angeles, Snot signed with Geffen Records, and began work on their debut album, Get Some, released on May 27, 1997. Although the album received positive critical notice, sales were disappointing.
Oh, spray the masses with gunfire
Foreign pigs will live in fear, they never learn
Light the match, flames burn higher
I need to exterminate the queers
My stomach turns
Well, I killed my dad in a con gone bad
Nearly drank myself to death
But when he died he said, "Lou had the cake"
So I caught a bus headin' west
I saw the numbers running through a small cafe
Drivin' fast to live not to know
I got my forty-four
I'm tearin' up the asphalt
Drivin' my engine just can't take much more
Tryin' to be the one, I got to beat you down
