Atomic Copper Claw is about paranoia. The protagonist of the song believes that someone has a claw (which is apparently radioactive and made of copper) on their right hand, and points out very circumstantial and weak evidence for this idea.

[Verse 1]
You may be friendly looking on the outside
But I know why you only wear long sleeves
And I know why you shake with the wrong hand
Don't try to hide it, ‘cause I do believe that
[Chorus]
You're out to get me, gonna scratch out my eyes
With that atomic copper claw, ooh, what a surprise!
[Verse 2]
I saw it gleaming underneath the fabric
I saw you reaching under, tightening a screw
You try to keep it out of sight in the shadows
Sneaking me that evil little glance that you do, oh
[Chorus]
You're out to get me, gonna scratch out my eyes
With that atomic copper claw, ooh, what a surprise!
[Bridge 1]
Are you the grisly result of some unauthorized genetics lab experiment gone wrong? (Gone wrong.)
Was there an accident, resulting in the radioactive instrument for which I wrote this song?
I know you're planning on assassinating me with just a couple well placed slashes to the head

[Verse 1]
You may be friendly looking on the outside
But I know why you only wear long sleeves
And I know why you shake with the wrong hand
Don't try to hide it, ‘cause I do believe that…
[Chorus]
You're out to get me, gonna scratch out my eyes
With that atomic copper claw, ooh, what a surprise!
Go ahead, take a shred, kill me dead
With that atomic copper claw!, yeah, that's what I said
[Interlude 1: 1:33-2:36]
Okay!
[Interlude 2: 2:36-4:57]
Atomic copper claw
Atomic copper claw
Atomic copper claw
You still deny it's even there
All you return me is a stare
If you're so sure of yourself, why don't you show me your hand?
I know your secret and there's no point lying, don't you understand?
Yes, I am well aware. I know it's there
Atomic copper claw!
Atomic copper claw!
Atomic copper claw!
[Outro]
Hey, hey!
Whee!
Yeah, you're out to get me, gonna scratch out my eyes
With that atomic copper claw, that atomic copper claw
