comment |
Hollywood Tourette's: While the song that explicitly mentions Tourette's, "Turning Forty", is about a character realizing that they're starting to sound like their father, "Side Effects" implies that one of the side effects for the drug is a version of Tourette's with twitching and a tendency to rude outbursts. |

Side Effects Include...: "Side Effects" indicates that the fictional drug of Lipodexterine, meant to cure high cholesterol, may induce high cholesterol, blinking and rude outbursts, stigmata in men with comb-overs, comb-overs, false optimism when consumed with beers, leg spasms if Riverdance videos are watched, and multiple nipples in lab monkeys. And sudden stoppage may cause death... |

My Biological Clock Is Ticking: The point of the "Biological Clock" song is simply this. It goes from suggestion to seduction to outright assault by the stage directions. |

Basement-Dweller: "Empty Nest" is about the parents' dismay that their child still hasn't moved on. At the end of the song, he tells them that he's decided to move in with his girlfriend. They rejoice until they realize he means moving her home... |

Mid-Life Crisis Car: In "He Got What He Deserved", one of the ladies laments that her husband "traded in our mini-van / for a shiny sports car, naturally it's red." |

Hollywood Mid-Life Crisis: Played up in some of the songs such as "I Quit" and "He Got What He Deserved", which are essentially about people deciding that they want more out of their life and going for it. |
