    Reception

    NME wrote that the song sounds like "a thousand Sioux Indians invading the whorehouse at the High Chaparal for a bongs'n'blow jobs toga keg party", commenting "does it really take a major bastard ad campaign for the radio big knobs to spot a decent tune when it chews their fucking faces off?", in reference to The Dandy Warhols' relative obscurity prior to having their song "Bohemian Like You" featured in a Vodafone advert.

    Get Off

    by: Bad Religion

    Lascivious, it's all that I can think of as I drag my feet
    Searching like a Diogenes
    Dangerous, the adjective of the decade
    And of your alluring intricacies
    Yes I see your green screen mentality
    And I feel the sting of it's consequence
    And I know I shouldn't
    But it's too much to ignore, an emotion I deplore
    Every time I look at you
    I just wanna do it
    I can clench my fist right through it
    But I just wanna get off
    Rectilinear, the direction we've been heading
    Never realizing we are on a runaway machine
    Angular, the momentum that does turn us one step further on our ladder
    One more turn toward the east
    I realize your green screen mentality
    And I know it is shared by many more
    And I know it's quite impossible
    But I am damned to find a way, to revolve the other way
    Every time I scrutinize I just say screw it
    On a ride down a blind conduit
    And I just wanna get off
    Ahh ahh ahh ahh
    Ahh ahh ahh ahh
    Ahh ahh ahh ahh
