Discover the story of the song > Threw It On The Ground – The Lonely Island

The protagonist is walking in the city when someone offers him an energy drink that he doesn't want, so he throws it on the ground. Later, a hot dog vendor offers him a free hotdog but he refuses it, saying he's an adult. When his partner gives him a phone call from his dad, he throws the phone on the ground because it's not his real dad. At a birthday party, someone offers him cake but he throws it on the ground. When two people offer him their autographs, he tells them he doesn't want them and they end up tasing him. The song is about not letting others control your choices and being independent.
