Screeching Weasel es una banda de punk rock formada en Chicago, Illinois, en el año 1986 por Ben Weasel y John Jughead. La banda, tras varias rupturas, anunció en 2004 su retirada después de lanzar 11 álbumes de estudio en su carrera.
Se les considera los precursores del punk pop que volvió a gozar del auge a comienzos de la década de los 90, especialmente en California. Algunas bandas que protagonizaron ese auge como Green Day y blink-182, y otras como The All-American Rejects, citan a Screeching entre sus influencias principales.

[CA#FC] x4
[Verse]: As long as you don't have lots of zits or small tits Or crooked teeth then you won't be a freak, a wildebeaste And people won't tape signs on to your back or beat the crap Out of you or ignore your sorry ass, see
