#CrashTestDummies #Androgynous
Lyrics:
Here comes Dick, he's wearing a skirt
Here comes Jane you know she's sportin' a chain
Same hair, a revolution
Same build, evolution
Tomorrow who's gonna fuss?
And they love each other so, androgynous
Closer than you know, love each other so, androgynous
We'll don't get him wrong, and don't get him mad
He might be a father but he sure ain't a dad
And she don't need the advice that is sent to her
She's happy the way she looks, she's happy with her gender
And they love each other so, androgynous
Closer than you know, love each other so, androgynous
Mirror image, see no damage, see no evil at all
Cupie dolls and urine stalls will be laughed at
The way you're laughed at now
Something meets boy and something meets girl
They both look the same they're overjoyed in this world
Same hair revolution
Unisex evolution
Tomorrow who's gonna fuss?
And tomorrow Dick is wearing pants
Tomorrow Jane is wearing a dress
Future outcasts and they don't last
And today people dress the way that they please
The way they tried to do in the last centuries
And they love each other so, androgynous
Closer than you know, love each other so, androgynous
Reading the lyrics to this song makes me feel like it was years ahead of its time.
MANY years. It was written in 1984. Sadly, it is STILL ahead of its time. *cough* Jordan Peterson Donald Trump *cough* But we have come a long way too.
All credit to songwriter Paul Westerberg of the Replacements.
Yeah except those were the good ole days before gender reassignment surgery was all the rage.
@@cavemanben Fuck you
@@cavemanben How does that affect you?
I grew up with the Crash Test Dummies and their music still makes me just as happy today as it did back when I was little
Yeah me too. Such a great, underrated band.
@@jimm7098 too true Jim
me too. grew up with my dad playing CTD all the time. we still rock it to this day
Going to see ctd tonight!!!! Soooooo pumped!!!! In my home town of winnipeg were they are from as well!!!!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🤙🏻☝🏻
Lucky!!!
Still relevant 30 years after it was released. I love this song.
Epic band.... awesome music, lyrics and vocals!! I forgot just how good they were. Should have been way more famous
Lol guy they had a hit song from one the best comedies of all time dumb and dumber.. I think they did alright
@@ninjavigilante5311 What was that?
Not their lyrics, this is a cover of a Replacements song
Yeah I agree
I absolutely love late 80’s, early 90’s Canadian pop music. Growing up in my house we had much music on constantly. And they played so much good music. These guys, barenaked ladies, cowboy junkies, the odds, 54-40, the hip etc. music was so genuine and pure. This song and swimming in your ocean were my favs by ctd. So good. Warms your heart. And how relevant is this song now with people identifying however they want. So freakin ahead of it’s time. Peace & love
They did the best cover of this Replacements song. I was a fan of the original and am a fan of this one!
I love that they tried to be so understanding of the world... Crash Test Dummies don't get the credit they deserve
And influenced by the far-seeing poet, T.S. Eliot...
@@squamish4244 who's mentioned in Afternoons and Coffeespoons
You should hear the version by the the Replacements! It's a bop too
Neither do the Replacements. This is a cover.
@@wendelgee01 Thanks for the education. Took me over 20 years to find out.
I love this ..WAY AHEAD OF THEIR TIME... MISS YA'LL LOVED TO SEE YOU AGAIN IF POSSIBLE PHILLY AREA..
Really wish this song was on iTunes. Great tune.
Such a great song and message shame people still have such hate
Brad and the Dummies do a fine rendition of The Replacements' song.
its okay
When truth meets the art of music. MAGICAL
I met Brad on the street in Winnpeg. I was surprised how small he was, especially with such a huge voice!
I literally didn't know they covered this song until right now.
Same
I love them
Been listening to you since '91, CTD. I need to grab the newer albums!
Superb band
my dad said he caught this video on MTV every now and again back when it came out. never realized the label actually tried to promote this album in the US.
That bass guitar got a little wild on this one! :) I'd wear a kilt. ha. :) A real kilt. A traditional one. Ya know the kind. right? lol. :)
Thank you 🎵
Love this😇
Such a sad sounding song. Makes you think
it's a lot more hopeful than the Replacements version
Love this group!
❤
Back in the day when this first came out, I always thought they said “they love each other soooo, it drives ya nuts”
Funny
I feel like this song is more relevant than ever, with some people losing their shit about how gender roles are changing and retreating into Red Pill or Men's Rights territory or other reactionary bullshit. What are they afraid of?
Their afraid of the breakdown of a civil society, ya goofball. Did you happen to notice what happened in the black community when the father's and the traditional male role models they played were removed from the family unit? Chaos and instability...Transgender"ism" is a mental illness that we're supposed to pretend is no big deal. Now a guy in a bikini can enter the Ms. Universe pageant and that's, supposedly, normal, whilst a real woman in a bikini is considered to be used and sexually objectified. Bizarro world! ruclips.net/video/I8BRdwgPChQ/видео.html
Nah. Ya goofball, everything is changing. Get used to it, because we aren't going back. Neither would we want to - the past was not a nice place.
Anyway, if you don't like this song's message, why are you here?
Maybe I like the Crash Test Dummies, ya dummy! I was just replying to your moronic statement...(What's going to be next in your brave "new world" -- Pedophilia?) PS: I also like the song "Lola" by the Kinks and still listen to it, even though the subject is a little creepy -- and that song was written over 50 years ago.
But why are you listening to this specific song, then, if you don't like the message, ya dummy?
Shouldn't you be out blowing sailors for spare change so that you can buy yourself a burger for dinner tonight...
he looks like his voice
I am envious of their hair. They could be Breck girls. Almost as good as the ‘ Mats.
When I was a little kid listening to this song, I had no idea what androgenous meant (and was too lazy to look it up), and I was also conditioned to believe the song title is always in the song. So when the chorus came along and I could only hear "Closer than you know, love each other so, it drives you nuts" I always wondered why the song title wasn't in the song anywhere.
tl;dr kids are idiots
oh no
I will always sing that now
90's kid here
damn his voice goes hard
Here comes Dick, he's wearing a skirt
Here comes Jane you know she's sportin' a chain
Same hair, a revolution
Same build, evolution
Tomorrow who's gonna fuss?
And they love each other so, androgynous
Closer than you know, love each other so, androgynous
We'll don't get him wrong, and don't get him mad
He might be a father but he sure ain't a dad
And she don't need the advice that is sent to her
She's happy the way she looks, she's happy with her gender
And they love each other so, androgynous
Closer than you know, love each other so, androgynous
Mirror image, see no damage, see no evil at all
Cupie dolls and urine stalls will be laughed at
The way you're laughed at now
Something meets boy and something meets girl
They both look the same they're overjoyed in this world
Same hair revolution
Unisex evolution
Tomorrow who's gonna fuss?
And tomorrow Dick is wearing pants,
Tomorrow Jane is wearing a dress
Future outcasts and they don't last
And today people dress the way that they please
The way they tried to do in the last centuries
And they love each other so, androgynous
Closer than you know, love each other so, androgynous

Such powerful lyrics!
Yeah acting like it's some radical NEW concept non binary gender zee LMAO. think it was around in ancient Greece too everyone in togas.
See they even wrote fucked up lyrics!
@@AnnaLVajda Conservatives always act like everything they don't like is new, it makes it easier to dismiss.
However, Greek togas are not a sign of an androgynous society, Greek style, like most everything else in ancient Greece, was heavily gender segregated, but you do still find stories of people rebelling against gender norms all throughout history.
@@falconJB Not everything is as its seems. I knew one of the long haired goths in the video & he was straight.........talented bass player as well. So don't assume an androgynous looking goth who takes inspiration from Dave Vanian & vampire lore is somehow non-binary......actually that term was not in the vernacular back then..........it has been recently made up by leftest cultural marxist for their own agenda. Context is everything.
"Kewpie dolls and urine stalls will be laughed at...the way you're laughed at now."
Be careful who you make fun of, people. As the saying goes, when one finger is pointing out, four are pointing back :)
Matthew Liam Nicholson of Function Ensemble and Outshine Family covered this song well.
I love them when they are almost long hair.🤘
EagleOne 💚🦅💚❤💚🦅💚
A remake of The Replacements song - I had no idea for all these years!
THE PLACEMATS
LOOK...THE OLYMPICS THEME SONG !
We were so optimistic in the 90's. Naive, but optimistic
💗💗💗
This should have been the theme song for It's Pat!
Hi there, Replacements and Paul Westerberg brought me here, mmm mmm mmm.
headin down to the Blue Note for late night cinnamon coffee, who's in?
"And today people dress the way that they please/They way they tried to do in the last centuries"
A powerful reminder of just how good we have it today, despite our obstacles, and to be constantly vigilant in defense of our hard-earned rights.
Second!
Blue Note Cafe 3;33 AM -33 one more refill for Neil and me please Brad, damn Paul's a no show again. we'll leave a better tip this time. Ya cats dig?
Lou Derbro I dig
Ill have to CTDs version is much better the replacements . Ive always wanted to meet this band there awesome.
🌈🏳️🌈✌🏼💚
Folks know this is a cover right?
How this song predicted the trans faze. Men turning to women and women to men .
Dude was an ally way before it was cool.
Meh. Not a patch on the original. Replacements forever x
People were actually androgynous in the 90s?
This song is from eighties
Can't tell - pro or anti LGBTQ?
somewherenin the middle there
The song is perfectly insightful; recognizing that gender-bending fashions of the '80s and early '90s were relatively innocent, but predicting that they would get pushed too far, eliciting a backlash ("Tomorrow Dick's wearing pants. Tomorrow Janie's wearing a dress. Future outcasts and they don't last.") The tomorrow they predicted is here, with the backlash we're witnessing against transgenderism.
A darker reading is that the pants-wearing Dick and dress-wearing Jane are the outcasts of a future dominated by degenerates, but I prefer the optimistic interpretation.
@@tedatwork2343 I don't think the message has a dark side at all. I'm not sure what "Future outcasts and they don't last" means, but the negative interpretation makes no sense when you contrast it with the very clearly positive "Kewpie dolls and urine stalls will be laughed at/The way you're laughed at now".
It could just mean that them being outcasts in the future won't last.
Gender roles and the differences between the genders are inevitably going to narrow as society evolves and the ability to manipulate our DNA advances. Is this good? Is this bad? I don't know, but I don't think it's worth getting all that worked up over either. I think the only thing we should be concerned about is love. What helps it, what hinders it. The rest is shadows and dust.
I know you came down on the positive side, I'm just expanding on it. I think the trans hysteria of today is overblown. A few kids here and there are gender transitioning without thinking it through. This does not equal disaster for civilization, and it's a helluva lot better than the situation we had before, when those who were authentically trans used to be murdered for their desires. A lot more kids just want to wear androgynous clothes.
Crash test dummies said trans rights!
Idk a dude wearing a skirt is a little different than self mutilation
Actually Paul Westerberg did… . Crash Test Dummies just covered it… .
First song I thought sucked.
Boy this song hits the money in 2023 with all the pronouns
Gay
This song still stands today in the year 2023 cuz we're still fighting for equal rights and transgender rights
I love being androgynous
