According to the March, 1996 issue of Pulse magazine:
The song is Jourgensen's very personal "fuck you" to someone, he says, "who will recognize themselves when they hear the lyrics."
In an interview with Illinois Entertainer that same year:
"['Crumbs'] is my favorite one," declares Jourgensen...
Yeah!
You're down to shooting blanks from broken guns
You fire all day long and still not hit a fucking one
Don't wanna know what some sick psycho fuck considers fun
You'd probably throw a party, serving melted ice cream over crumbs
Just crumbs
Just crumbs
You probably lick more ass than anyone
I guess you like the taste of shit on your tongue
No matter what you order, same thing will come
A plate of refried shit just covered in crumbs
Just crumbs
Just crumbs
