I love this song. It is pure rock'n'roll. It is one of my contenders for what should be our National Anthem, (along with the theme song to Gilligan's Island and Yankee Doodle). As for the lyrics, you can follow the above references and see that it was all much ado about nothing. EXCEPT, as so often happens, people were right, but for the wrong reason. About a third of the way into the song, the drummer messed up somehow, (I believe he hit his sticks together), and he yelled out "Fuck!" in frustration. Listen carefully to the above YouTube (which is a lipsynch), you can hear it about 54 seconds in, in the background. The above recording is a little murkier than you'll get on the record - there, it's quite distinct and easily heard, once you know to listen for it. Just one more useless tidbit of knowledge from my mis-spent childhood....
