WE CAN'T HAVE THAT

I thought about leaving this one out.

The first half at least is just ugly and vituperative.

Well, except for Larry's drum solo at the start, which is pretty sweet.

I give teenage me a little credit for locating the anger more properly in the second half of the song, and yeah, “I can't have that/We can't have that” gets at the spirit of 17.

Listen for: theatricality masking pain, pain masking theatricality, throughout...
