Less Than Jake is a ska-punk band formed in 1992 in Gainesville, USA. Their current line-up consists of Chris DeMakes (vocals, guitar), Roger Lima (vocals, bass), Matt Yonker (drums), Buddy Schaub (trombone) and Peter "JR" Wasilewski (saxophone).
The band's name derives from a bird Vinnie had while growing up, which was treated better than the rest of the family. It's also a reference to the phrase "everything is jake," which is an old phrase meaning everything is cool.
Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!

################################Please Note################################## This is my own interpretation of the song.
Intro: CDAF x's 2
CA Dear you won't answer me do you honestly, FG Think I'd ever leave, if you somehow just believe me CA You've gotta know right now these words still sting, FG I've lost everything, I've ever touched AGFAGF The results are freakin' me out, for once I've had enough
Chorus:
CDAF Landmines, Landslides no matter how I try CDAF Landmines, Landslides every single time
Verse 2:
CA I fell asleep while watching T.V., FG While the living dead, they walk my streets this evening CA This sitting target's been, stuck on the couch again FG Pretending, I'm stable when the panic sets in AGFAGF The results are freakin' me out, for once I've had enough
Chorus:
CDAF Landmines, Landslides no matter how I try CDAF I'm destined for disaster, a failure by design CDAF Landmines, Landslides every single time CDAF I'm destined for disaster, I'm trapped on every side
Bridge:
AGF You know how hard I try sometimes, A You could see it in my eyes, GF it's always eating me alive, A The day to day of getting by, GF Self-control from all the helplessness I've known, GFGF I'm a wreck, woah, lacking confidence there's no argument you know
Solo/ CDAF x's 2
Chorus:
CDAF Landmines, Landslides no matter how I try CDAF I'm destined for disaster, a failure by design CDAF Landmines, Landslides every single time CDAF I'm destined for disaster, I'm trapped on every side
