Camper Van Beethoven - Take The Skinheads Bowling video free download

Jeremy Hall

To save you time, I googled the meaning of the song... fact is, the song purposefully has no meaning. lol"Why? We regarded Take The Skinheads Bowling as just a weird non-sensical song. The lyrics were purposely structured so that it would be devoid of meaning. Each subsequent line would undermine any sort of meaning established by the last line. It was the early 80′s and all our peers were writing songs that were full of meaning. It was our way of rebelling. BTW this is the most important fact about this song. We wanted the words to lack any coherent meaning. There is no story or deeper insight that I can give you about this song."

This reminds me of the time I went to a school in Hammersmith, and I met a green dinosaur called Gerald, and he showed me his collection of matchsticks and Tory handbags, whilst simultaneously glazing a golden giraffe who loved Tom Hanks films and recently published a book about walking backwards...

Love the idea of trying to soothe skinheads, even the 70's mob were scary! (old punk) :)

When I first heard it I was like 14 or so and I thought it was about soothing skinheads into being good people by taking them to have fun bowling. lol true story.
