วีดีโอ

I had this album when I was 10.

Complete and utter despair

Full tilt drums bass guitar vocals and two saxophones. All time.

I was jamming along with the CD and I just absolutely shredded my life out to this song. Blood, sweat, everything.

After one of the heaviest lyrics ever this came, just genius

aphex twin gives me emotions ive never experienced in my body ever before

This is my actually favorite song on this album

Look outside

Reagan Roby, you’re my love.

“His name is Richard Peterson. He’s an artistic street musician. We asked permission to use one track off his CD (titled The Second Album) called “Second Album.” (Robert DeLeo) “He’s a guy from Washington somewhere, a small town-not Aberdeen-but I guess Dean did a radio interview up there in Washington, and he saw this picture of this guy in the Wall posing with Johnny Mathis. And he was like, ‘Wow, who’s this guy?’ And they said, ‘Oh, that’s Richard Peterson, he’s got his own records out.’ We got a tape of his stuff, and it was just fucking great, so we instantly put it on, you know, the music before we go on stage, and just were listening to it all the time and turning on all our friends to it. And the song is the first on his second album, you know? It’s just so self-explanatory to how he feels about his second album that we felt it kinda fits our situation too.” (Scott Weiland) Fun fact: Peterson was paid $10,000 for the song’s inclusion on Purple and promised another $10,000 for every million copies the record sold. The album sold more than six million copies in the United States alone.

wtf is going on with these comments

I could listen to Les play the bass all day.

Lyrics (not safe for lunch!): I wanna lock Betty Crocker in the kitchen And knock her upper during supper Clutter up her butter gutter, said Hostess Ding Dong wrapped an eggroll around my wong While Dolly Madison proceeded to ping my pong Your Milky Way is M'n'M in your britches And I'll tell you Baby Ruth it looks mighty delicious Keep blowing my gum, cuz here I come I'm gonna get you all sticky with my Bubble Yum, yep Knick-knack paddy whack! And give your dog a bone, baby Knick-knack paddy whack! And give your dog a bone, baby I was givin' some head to some french bread It was a four course orgy on the spread of my bed French kissin' french fries in my Fruit of the Looms I get deeper penetration with a fork and a spoon I got yogurt meatloaf smeared all over my ass I stick my weenie in two buns and and then give it the gas Sour cream from my spleen into Levi jeans Gonna bust the seams with my refried beans Ronald McDonald just loves to be fondled With Big Mac he'll fuck it like a Chicken McNugget Colonel Sanders wants to goose Granny's loose caboose He's gonna give her a boost with that Kentucky fried juice Sooper dooper, pooper scooper Loop de loop, a-chicken coop, shoot some hoops Top sirloin from the groin, topped with dick cheese Sneeze, wheeze from the skeez disease, woooh! Knick-knack paddy whack! And give your dog a bone, baby Knick-knack paddy whack! And give your dog a bone, baby Take a dump, baby, squirt some gravy Pour some sugar on me, honey, make it brown and runny Give a little Flavor Flav, back from the grave Gonna burn some toast, pump some humping rump roast Knick knack paddy whack, jump in the sack, in fact Jerk the smack and crack Jack from the back Bananarama or ramabanana Fucking Barry Manilow on the Copacabana Squeeze me macaroni, slop your face with my bologna Squeeze me macaroni, slop your face with my bologna Squeeze me macaroni, slop your face with my bologna Squeeze me macaroni, slop your face with my... (Scat) Ooh, ooh, ooh, oooh! (Scat) Ooh, ooh, ooh, oooh! You gotta syphon the spinach, you gotta cream the corn Sperm scrambles the eggs and a meal is born Cooking like a beginner, but I'm going up in her I had Fritos for lunch I'm having bush for dinner Chef Boyardee and the Three Musketeers Shove Charleston Chews in their rears like queers "Holy moly, guacamole!" said my Chips Ahoy I'm gonna pinch a ravioli on the Pillsbury dough boy Knick-knack paddy whack! And give your dog a boner, baby! Knick-knack paddy whack! And give your dog a boner, baby! We came to pottie We came to pottie down your throat

I remember laminating Failures break up in 1997, I’m so happy to see bands like HUM and Failure come back in the 2020’s to gives us some of their best material yet.

This is the kind of thing They Mighy Be Giants would pull and I love it.

Love you 🥰🤗❤️

The drumming in this is so tight. Such groove all the way through. The interplay between the drummer and Les from like 10:00 to the end is so dope.

He’s a student of the drums But also a teacher of the drums

dancing like a nut to this. i don't care if i get another noise complaint. fists will fly if do

I was at this show, so much fun

The change from YYZ to the Tommy Into was a little sloppy for Les, I wonder if he was still getting used to "Bernard" (the name for the rainbow bass he made up, I think; if I recall the interview that I'd read of him saying that like 30 years ago in "Bass player" magazine while I obsessed over Primus and Les' bass playing all through high school - especially this bass line)

This song really makes you FEEL like a digeridoo.

Stone cold classic!!!

Like so many other comments here, my dad and I used to listen to this when I was young. Then, he'd often touch me inappropriately. Don't blame the song tho~!

La mejor banda de los 90 , con Mike Patton el patrón de la voz ❤

the bes song of the Band...show!

You’re correct about Didgeridoo, what you said in the description; I feel lucky to have had many early morning warehouse experiences that rendered all of us mesmerized, awash in the beauty of this early gem. I used to have a good time mixing it with RSW’s “The Phantom” which I had to pitch up obviously or slowww down sir Richard :)

Love Primus! al itltle tip about Swedish pr ogreesive from the early ?0`. Von Zambla ::Harujanta.

It's interesting to see how low energy this is compared to, say, Primus's incredible performance of "Tommy the Cat" at 2011's Bonnaroo. Both the band and the crowd seemed bored here.

Not poor quality at all! Great listening!

Les always knows where the live camera is pointed.

Primus might have the most talented band of all time. They might not be the best band ever but my god….

9:45. Them Grateful Dead fans be following with Da TwoStep.

The two Guitarists in this band are both the most underrated in Rock History.

I wonder if people recognize that without primus the whole of rock would be completely different. There's so many bands that either wouldn't exist at all or would have been significantly different. Korn, Incubus, Mudvayne, probably some of the biggest names inspired heavily by primus. If you don't hear it... listen again. And read about their early years. Listen to early primus... then listen to early korn or Fungus Amongus/Science by Incubus or LD 50 by mudvayne. Those albums have primus written all over them and they spawned so much music themselves too. Primus should be considered as one of the absolute most important rock bands of our time. They were so fucking crazy inventive and ahead of their time. It's hard to grasp they were doing this in the mid 80s already. Fucking 1986 they were playing Tommy the Cat. There's demos. It's great. In fucking 1986 dude. There still is nothing like primus... but back then? They had to be the weirdest thing anyone ever saw and it was probably outrageously amazing.

This joint is tight as a kite! I was the wise guy in high school because if you look at the back the cake says "12 gracious melodies" but there are only 11 songs listed. I was the guy that figured it all out.

This band is such a hidden gem in music. I have listened to many bands over 15 years from many different genres and Failure's albums have such a high replayability to them compared to most bands out there.

When I first heard this I thought something is wrong and it was not revealed to me that it was a hidden track until i heard the lyrics detailing the exact cover of the album that i realized the genius of the song.

Primus always makes me want to dance and move in strange ways like nobody will care how weird I am because the band is even weirder. It gives the sense of freedom.

OMG, it's real time vinyl mixing!!!!!!!!!!!!

Man, that last track….. fucking wow 😢

Tight, precise and…. fun. Brilliant musicianship! Sadly my ears are too slow these days to keep with Les’s lyrics.

I'll never get over the fact that he originally did this on 6 stringed fretless bass guitar. That kinda precision to slap on such smaller spacing is nuts!

I honestly thought it was Scott manipulating his voice and singing this, but now I see obviously it's some other guy. And I listened to this a few times when I got the cd!

I just don't get this music never have and never will ..there's absolutely zero melody or sensibility in this .
