What is Trey singing in "Mock Song"?
According to Mike, in Billboard (12/21/02), "It was late at night when we recorded it, and I was trying to read the words because I had never learned them. The second verse was new too. It was dark and I didn't have my glasses on so I couldn't really see what I was reading. I figured I'd change it to sing the missed words, but the band really liked it how it was. I learned to like it flubbed rather than fixed because it has its original vibe. It is pretty rare for us, but a lot of the vocals we used were sung live while we played. In some cases, there are overdubbed vocals. We did try to re-sing some things, but it didn't have as much of the original vibe. On "Mock Song," Trey comes in with the second verse harmony and that not only isn't written out, but it is spur of the moment gibberish. He has no idea what he was saying."
