I will say the lyrics on this album shows off a pretty skewed world view. But, that's part of why this hits right.

I had music stuck in my head for the better of a year and finally came across the little groove at the end of Jumper and decided that was it. Turns out it was really The Offspring’s Self- Esteem that I was thinking of.

to be totally fair to that guy at the top of the page Jenkins is a fucking creepy weirdo irl and I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him. I don't think that necessarily reflects on this album or all the great songs he's written since, but anyone who'll defend that dude personally gets a side eye from me lol

Yeah he’s definitely a douchebag, despite my being a big fan of the band. I have absolutely no problem with separating the art from the artist.
Was pretty awesome what the Jimmy drummer said about him lol.

I always thought the lyric was "your voice sounds like honey" instead of "money"

As interesting as it is that they pulled it off, the fact that semi-charmed life was a hit-single about smoking meth is still pretty fucked up. Fucking banger tho.

Maybe a banger for edgelords?
The music just never comes off as self aware enough to merit the subtext. The writer of these songs is clearly not aware of the implications of its own lyrics enough for it to feel deep, and the worldview is too generic of a picture of a narcissistic frat bro to be considered dark. It's just tone deaf is all it is. Like everything that is edgy about this record was done decades earlier by people like Lou Reed (who Jenkins tried to compare himself too for the success of Semi-Charmed Life). Every aspect of this was done by someone better than him. I just don't see where how this is "Classic" material in any way, shape, or form.

who the fuck cares about the lyrics of 90% of these songs. you're overthinking this.
The last 3 songs have the only lyrics I care about at all, and even then... This album is all about the couple of lines that even if they're complete nonsense or meaningless just stick in your head and get you jazzed up.
I REMEMBER YOU AND ME USED TO SPEND THE WHOLE GOD DAMN DAY IN BED
AND THERE'S A BONE IN MY HAND THAT CONNECTS TO A DRINK
AND I WON'T GIVE UP UNTIL MY LEGS ARE BROKEN
trying to logically approach this album is a complete waste of time, either you love it or it's just not for ya. I'm sure I wouldn't love it as much if it didn't have so many nostalgic connotations.

Yeah I grew up with this album and discovered it the same time I fell in love for the first time...which ended in us breaking up a few months later, and this album was there for me.

Jenkins can write a lyric, no way around that

Imagine going from owning the radio waves and dating Charlize Theron to wherever he is now.

Semi-Charmed Life randomly popped in my head today and for some reason, l had always assumed this band was a bit of a one hit wonder but l guess not. Will listen to this.

"Losing a whole year is a banger agreed" I loled

More like the anti one-hit-wonder.
