No Picture Ben Average	#1 by Ben Rackow at Nov 24, 1973 at 5:06 AM EST
	I can't beleive no one has gotten this yet.. maybe its because people are too busy posting "d00d this song rules, its like linkin park!" GTFOutta here kid. Just a quiet peaceful dance! This refer's to a dance the Native Americans did to mourn lost ones. The military saw this as a war dance and slaughtered the Natives. I believe it was Custer but i could be wrong. AND FOR THE RECORD Linkin Park is a money grubbing band created and sold by record executives to feed on the poorly adjusted youth who relate to their angty crybaby music. They are talentless and do nothing new, if you dig it good for you but PLEASE don't try to compare it to Rage because theyre songs aren't about lost love or angst. They are political with a meaning.

	This line fucking rocks: "Yeah I'm rolling Rodeo with a shotgun these people ain't seen a brown skined man since their grandparents bought one." I fucking LOVE that line.

	Gummy - good point, as a generic sort of thing that's probably right but the Bush instance wouldn't happen until four years later. Zack is the best rap lyricist ever, seriously. He's a genius, just read the lyrics man. You can see it in them, but it's the way he fits them together that makes it so incredible.

No Picture Bas Average	#4 by Bas Koningsveld at Aug 23, 2005 at 10:55 PM EST
	u guys are all wrong , im a very good friend of zacks and iw as with him when he write this song its about how hard life is as a black man and how rich white ppl can liv thier live and blacks have almost nothing and they cant even voice thier opinion or rebel because they just get shot down and its DANCE and he was kinda stoned so i dont kno what that means but the rest is about life a a black right next to rich white folk -X
