Barker's Drum Stick

The First 23 Blink 182 Lyrics We Thought Of When We Saw Drummer Travis Barker’s Naked Pics

We weren’t really sure what we were in for when we logged on to MediaTakeOut’s website and clicked through to see which rock star has “JANK The Size Of a MICROPHONE!!” Lo and behold, there was, apparently, Travis Barker’s manaconda and naked torso in all its tatted glory. (Barker’s legal team has apparently just coerced MediaTakeOut into removing the very NSFW pics but we trust that with some slight digging you can find them on your own.)

While we don’t know how much “Blink” bandmates Mark Hoppus and Tom DeLonge involved him in the songwriting process, evidently “All The Small Things” and the “it doesn’t seem to matter that I’m lacking in the bulge” lyrics from “Josie” weren’t references to Barker’s own drum stick.

Since we can no longer actually check out the image, we decided to come up with a sampling of 23 other lyrics from Blink-182 songs that were evoked when we set eyes on Barker’s well-groomed weapon.
