Power.  This song has it in spades.

“Earth Rocker” starts with a slow build, just simple bass line and a ride cymbal, but even then you can tell it’s about to pummel you over the head with something.  It’s not until a couple of verses in that you understand the message – quit being a whiney shit Lance and do something worthwhile.

If you’re gonna do it
Do it live on stage
Or don’t do it at all
If you’re gonna do it
You better take it to the stage
Or don’t do it all

Fuckin’ A.

Plus it doesn’t hurt that throws a little Screamin’ Jay Hawkins “muhahahahaha” in there.
