| Seriously? Nobody's cracked this one yet? Alright, awesome. First I have to make a correction to the lyrics up there, and then the meaning might be more obvious: "You must not continue to EMASCULATE me The neighbor children through the window Clearly see" Now let's take a look at some of these together... "You must not continue to EMASCULATE me" "Did you think that I would laugh when you said I was SMALL" "I am BIG, I am your man, and you're my little honey" Methinks somebody's feeling a bit inadequate? | |

| Excellent. This is one of my favorite songs from the Eels-- mostly because of the music. The music-box (is it a keyboard effect or is it real?) is a great line... I don't know that it's all about bullying. If so, what's the deal with this line: "You play the little bells and tell a good story You bake delicious pie and that's enough for me." Hm. Beats me. (What's with the name "one hit wonder?" Is that supposed to be NSYNC or what?) | |

| attractivecousin is of course right, the singer's partner is making fun of him, and of course it's 'not really funny' if you're being made fun of. But this isn't a song about the poor singer being pciked on: he takes his revenge by talking to/about his partner in a patronising and belittling manner, reducing him to the same level. So overall it's a song about pettiness and lack of respect for each other - and that's not really funny. | |

| I'd say "I am big, I am your man..." This song's great, how come all you wannabe critics never said anything about it? | |

| i think he's saying that basically bullying isn't funny. he had a shit time of things when he was a kid and had all the other kids laughing at him, when it wasn't really funny at all. he was just different. that's what i reckon this is about. | |

| lol... i like this song a lot. I think we all do this, perhaps. When we like someone, it's easy to laugh along with them. But one time, i dated this guy, and i realized all the things i was laughing at were taunts at other people... they really weren't funny. Is that what E is trying to say? | |
