Ween is a rock group formed in 1984 in New Hope, Pennsylvania when Aaron Freeman and Mickey Melchiondo met in a junior high school typing class. The pair became known as Gene and Dean Ween. Thousands of home recordings later, Ween collected a large underground fanbase despite being generally unknown in pop music. Their earliest home recordings were anarchic and free-spirited, drawing on influences as far-reaching as the Beatles, Queen, Prince, Butthole Surfers, The Residents and the lo-fi punk movement. Ween was often compared in their early years to other offbeat artists such as Frank Zappa and would always eschew such comparisons.

When the life inside no doubt has died
And youve turn your head away
You tried to pay, but at the end of the day, its you again, alone
Alone, confined -- the mess in your mind
When you cant relate to them
Youve reaped and sown, but little is known by those who arent alone
Why should a man learn not again what he has learned before?
Hes overcome but must succumb to what hes living for
He tried and tried -- all those survived -- he missed, hes fallen short
The little known, his heart of stone, will make him feel alone
