I introduced my friends in college to this song, I never thought they liked it. One night we were driving home late at night in a packed car, at the last drop the whole car got quiet, next thing you hear is everyone screaming "ITS JUST A CONSTANT HEADACHE.." and finished out the song, one of the most epic moments of my life.
I’m 35 now I remember seeing them at this little youth center maybe it was on Long Island, I can’t remember but it was great, point is time fucking flies.
So glad I found this band. This song is so perfect. Not many songs can do this or give you this feeling. Life feels different now and I miss a lot of things from my past and this just hits perfectly. A lot of people can relate. The whole album does exactly what this song does. Good shit
Just recently discovered this band and I instantly fell in love with this song as well as orange julius, the choice of words, the catchy sound and fast pace is really getting me. Funny that this video came out shortly after I found them
I learned the intro riff like 2 years ago after I first heard this and I've never forgot out of 100s of learned songs on guitar this one sticks. Definitely one of the best
My favorite comment so far is "I highly doubt this was the intention but I couldn't help thinking of it this way. What if the lyrics we're meant to be taken from the point of view of a pet, like a pet dog specifically? It sounds silly but the whole first verse could relate to a dog's owners coming home from the bar being noisy so he/she hides behind the couch, like animals do. And the title "Constant Headache" may even refer to a dog who just seems to be in everybody's way, an annoyance maybe, but to sleep and have the owners praise the pet anyway.."you said such nice things about me, I felt guilty and cheap." Also, most noticeably, "your love was foreign to me (human love/interaction), it made me think maybe human's not such a bad thing to be." Again, the lyrical content is most likely not anything close but it does make sense and definitely a fun way to look at it." It's so pure to think of it in a pets perspective.
This is so cool, similarly, I thought myself that it might have been from the perspective of a child. Lines like "You hang me up unfished" referring to the fact that they just stopped loving or raising the kid, they are literally unfinished and underdeveloped.

I’m leaving a comment that everyone should know that Joyce manor is the all time great rock artist let’s have the time of our life’s Wooo #JoyceManor #RockHits #VEVORock
I could hear you coming so I hid by the couch You were talking so loudly, I don't know what about But you were drunker than high school, self-conscious and sweet I never ever felt so cool disguised in your sheets But I'm a constant headache, a tooth out of line They try to make you regret it, you tell them, no not this time It's just a constant headache, a dead pet device You hang me up, unfinished, with the better part of me no longer mine And then you finally found me, pretending to sleep You said such nice things about me, I felt guilty and cheap You took two steps to the kitchen, and just stared at the sink I couldn't hold back a smile, I still wish I could have seen You having sex in the morning, your love was foreign to me It made me think maybe human is not such a bad thing to be But I just laid there in protest, entirely fucked It's such a stubborn reminder one perfect night's not enough It's just a constant headache, a tooth out of line They try to make you regret it, you tell them, no not this time It's just a constant headache, a dead pet device You hang me up, unfinished with the better part of me no longer mine
I used to visit South Bay a lot (where Joyce is from) and there always used to be peacocks in suburban areas, randomly on peoples yards, thought was a nice little detail in the video haha
The fact that I got kicked out of a joyce manor show for underage drinking as a 20y/o still has me upset 3 years later... l still scream this song weekly
