Sick of You is the third track in heavy metal band GWAR's second album, Scumdogs of the Universe and is one of the most well known songs by the band.

Overview

Sick of You is, lyrically, a simple song, dealing with feelings of utter distaste for a despised one in a somewhat comical fashion:
"Your face is gross"
"You eat white toast"
"You don't know what to do"
"It's just your luck"
"You really suck"
"That's all I'm sick of you"

Despite the constant repetition of the word "sick" and the somewhat simple song structure, the song is a fan favorite, perhaps due to its more radio-friendly lyrics and sound than the rest of the album. Dave Brockie has stated it to be his favorite GWAR song (usually because it means the concert is over) and its the the song played the most often in the band's live shows. Many people believe that Sick Of You is the first song by the band with its own music video. This is not correct because a music video was made for the Hell-o! version of Black and Huge.

Another notable part of the song is the interlude of clean singing that starts around 1:25, clean singing is generally a rare thing for the band, making this song notable for being one of the few in which it is used extensively.
