Masked intruder stick em up6/15/2023 The song is about wondering if maybe a girl could get into you. We were listening to a lot of '60s pop at the time, and the influence of that stuff is pretty obvious on this tune. After we put all the parts together and played it a few times, we fell in love with it and started really looking forward to recording it. We wrote this one early on when we started writing for the record. I’m pretty sure that this song is a favorite of the whole band. The female vocals are sung by Maura from Mixtapes. This song is a centerpiece for the record because it’s in the middle and it's a good example of the kind of shit the songs are about. Intruder Green has tried that many times and nobody was stoked. Slater walks up to a chick shirtless in a grocery store and asks her if she wants a backrub, she is going to be stoked. Two dudes can do the same exact shit and chicks will react totally differently based on how they look. Sometimes you try to win somebody's affection, but they just think you seem creepy and desperate. It can be really hard to show somebody how you feel. Even though it’s one of the more up-tempo jams on the record, I think it really gets across the sadness of heartbreak. You can break out of prison, though that’s really hard to pull off. You make a break for it, but they nab you. You can have such a broken heart that you break a restraining order. You can tell somebody that you wanna “take a break” and really mean that you just want to break up. You can break a promise, or you can break a window. The word “break” can mean a lot of things. Sometimes it’s really cool, cause you get to eat way more. The truth is that it isn’t always that terrible to eat a banana split alone. When I wrote this song, I was in a phase where I was eating a lot of ice cream, which is why I wrote the line about eating banana splits alone. This song is about realizing that you might be one of those people in unrequited love. That feeling of being all alone and unloved is easy to relate to. I’m pretty sure that people who aren’t insecure listen to weird shit like Norah Jones or Dave Matthews. Especially the kind of people that like pop-punk because we are all romantics and most of us are pretty insecure. I think this song is very relatable to people. If I’m lonely, and you’re lonely, and you’re a pretty girl, why shouldn’t we be together? Why make it complicated? This song is a personal favorite of mine. And then I think, yeah, probably, because I’m pretty sure that everybody sees the same stars at night, because of how space works. And, if there is, I wonder if she is maybe looking up at the same stars. I sometimes look up at the stars and wonder if there really is a girl out there for me. And maybe, if we could just be together, we wouldn’t be lonely anymore. When I get real lonely, I start thinking about whether or not there is some girl out there, somewhere, who is lonely, too. Being lonely is one of the saddest things. Sometimes you just really don’t want to be all by yourself. Just because I may or may not have allegedly stolen most of the things I own doesn’t mean I don’t got love to give. And, also, maybe you could let me handle you, if you know what I mean. Who cares what I do for a living, you know? It’s like, let me handle me and you handle you. I think people just have to try and have open minds about stuff. Like, when you lay it all on the line and the person still doesn’t like you back, what are you going to do? You just want to be like, “Hey-what the fuck?!” We don’t have the best luck with the ladies-probably because girls aren’t that into dudes that are, like, criminals or whatever. This song is about how much it sucks to go after a girl when she doesn’t respond. We knew pretty much right away that this was going to be the first song, and we built the record around that. Want to make out?” Anyway, I think this song gets the record started really well. Maybe I could just be like, “Girl, I wrote this song about you even though I don't know you and you don’t know who I am and you probably think I’m creepy or whatever, but I will love you forever. I would probably choke and say something dumb in real life. I wrote this song as a fantasy of what I would say to the right girl if I ever had the chance. I guess I’m a sap, but I believe in love. I think that sucks because love is worth a shot. People are scared to fall in love because they don’t want to be tied down. With their self-titled debut coming out today ( order here, AP caught up with frontman Intruder Blue to get the specifics on each song, which range from girls, cops, booze, lonliness and everything in between-including a Kirsten Dunst shout-out. Pumping out pop-punk jams in between robbing liquor stores, Masked Intruder are criminals by day and musicians by night.
