I think so, because I dropped it about 10 times with Clumsy in it. But I did buy the CD used...

My clumsy cd was stolen, I was so mad that was my favorite cd. About that line...

The song in general is about the frustrations of life and I think the line "the dynamite is waiting cause they bankrupted the sky" is about how people have prayed and asked for help every time they get in trouble that they've bankrupted they sky(Heaven) and that there is nothing there, and we are ready to blow it up because its useless to us . I dunno just trying another angle

Your clumsy is weird too? I have the same problem! When I first bought it it was skipping, but then it straightened out for the most part... but sometimes it's screwed up. Also, with my Naveed, it takes about 10 seconds for the player to uh, find the song and play it. I always get defective stuff.

My Clumsy sounds really staticky during the title track (which might be because I keep listening to it.) I purchased the CD used, but most of my used CDs don't sound that bad. And I probably need a new discman anyway. (I've had about 10 or so; I drop them often.)

blind post alert!

i think maybe it's referring to having wasted and abused everything we have, including the environment, and now that's it's damaged we have no more use for it.

i think it mean's they have done everything, (the skys the limit) and now they're giving up, or that we've used up all our resources and now it's all over
