I'm not drunk

If only it weren't too perfect with its suspiciously placed and woefully wrong ill-fitting clock of deplorable utilitarian out-scaled design.

But I cannot think of that right now because I saw and heard an interesting video with perplexing lyrics and I cannot make out what they mean.

A 60 year old learns to skateboard. The band uses him for their video. The lyrics are about being shut out by a group, "we are tuning you out" are part of the lyrics. Other lyrics are just rap-y rhymes with surface cleverness but without really contributing to filling out the story.

The troubling phrase is:

"And buck all the new kids."

I do not know what that means.

I canot sign it if I don't understand it. Right now I think it means "face" or "buck up to" or "attempt to integrate oneself into." I don't know.

And it's a great song otherwise because of the tempo, the oddness, and the smooth double oooo-oooos.

There is no word for "unafraid" Sign is more straightforward than that. Unafraid means brave. But if it is the absence of fear that must be emphasized then "no fear" will do.

In the past I would have done "u-n + afraid" but I no longer do crap like that. Too English-y and it marks me as stuck on English so ewitscray.

If you know, tell me, what does "buck all the new kids" mean?

song video with old guy skateboarding.
interview of old person separate video. He's kind of "channel my creativity" kind of guy.

Hilarious, even if it is staged.
