Discover the story of the song > Give Me One Good Reason – blink-182

The protagonist doesn't understand why people conform to societal norms and stereotypes, such as girls piercing their noses and wearing torn pantyhose, or jocks and preps being popular. He prefers to be different and go against the norm, specifically liking people who listen to punk rock and rebel against how they were raised. He doesn't see the point in trying to fit in and wants to have fun and offend people in his own way.
