Broken Record: The phrase, "Pork roll egg and cheese on a kaiser bun," is repeated in the background throughout the entirety of "She Fucks Me.".Brain Bleach: With song titles like "Suckin' Blood from the Devil's Dick," new listeners should keep some handy.Blatant Lies: On the live album, At the Cat's Cradle 1992, during some stage banter, Dean lists a few songs including "Reggaejunkiejew" and says "We don't play any of those songs live." Right after this, they played "Reggaejunkiejew.".Black Sheep Hit: "Push th' Little Daisies".Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: "Reggaejunkiejew" is a hurricane of seething insults toward whoever the song is about - including telling the person to overdose on heroin and drop dead - but then there's the significantly less harsh but still rude line, "Maybe some people like to eat it, but I think you're a dick!".Aside from just the band name, Dean has also stated that this is how many album and song titles are named, for example, they wanted to go for a Beatles-esque sound on their White Pepper album and Dean claimed "White Pepper" sounded like a classic rock title, so the album's title references the Beatles' albums The Beatles (commonly known as The White Album) and Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band. A Good Name for a Rock Band: When asked where the name Ween came from, Dean and Gene often say it's just a word they came up with as teens that they thought sounded kind of cool.They do it on "Mononucleosis" from The Pod ("When you came into the Pod, you told me that something was wrong.").Album Title Drop: Almost done during "Candi" with the line "Chocolate with cheese." The actual name of the album is "Chocolate and Cheese.".A lot of their songs are affectionate parodies of the particular genre the song is.Similarly, Live In Toronto Canada has album art that parodies Frank Sinatra's It Might As Well Be Swing.
Affectionate Parody: The cover art to The Pod is a parody of the cover of Leonard Cohen's The Best of album.
