The title, “Bug,” references the Y2K Bug, and other fears leading up to the millennium. This song tugs at our hearts by evoking strong memories of “God” by John Lennon, The Grateful Dead’s “Morning Dew,” and The Velvet Underground’s “Oh! Sweet Nuthin.”
Bug Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There’ve been times when I wonder
And times when I don’t
Concepts I’ll ponder
And concepts I won’t ever see
God isn’t one of these
Former or latter
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Which did you think I meant?
It doesn’t matter to me
[Chorus]
Bug—don’t need it (My thoughts faded) (It doesn't matter)
Bug—don’t need it (My thoughts faded) (It doesn't matter)
Bug (My thoughts faded) (It doesn't matter)
It doesn't matter
[Verse 2]
Cold in my hand
In a country pool
Standing and waving
The rain, wind on the runway
Spending or saving
Credit or debt
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Which did you think I meant?
Nothing I see can be taken from me
[Chorus]
Bug—don’t need it (My thoughts faded) (It doesn't matter)
Bug—don’t need it (My thoughts faded) (It doesn't matter)
Bug (My thoughts faded) (It doesn't matter)
It doesn't matter (My thoughts faded)
[Outro]
It doesn't matter
It doesn't matter
It doesn't matter
It doesn't matter
It doesn't matter
It doesn't matter
It doesn't matter
It doesn't matter
It doesn't matter
It doesn't matter
It doesn't matter
