Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which song has these lyrics? "A sphere to determine my fate./ Second twelve to triple up./ Sit and wait."

Answer: Texas Dolly

 This is on their second full-length CD, "Nuclear. Sad. Nuclear.". This song is believed by many to be about gambling, because Doyle Brunson, a poker player, has the nickname "Texas Dolly".
2. Which song contains the following? "I want to conserve,/ I want to protect,/ I want to defend,/ we have to preserve./ How can I help before this will end?"

Answer: Sleeping With The Fishes, See?

 This song is on "Mongrel", their third full-length album. As you can tell by the section I gave you, this song is more than likely about environmentalism.
3. The Number Twelve Looks Like You did a cover of a famous 80's song by The Knack. Which one?

Answer: My Sharona

 This is by far their best known song, because of the popularity of The Knack's version. It sounds a lot like the original, except that it is mathcore-twisted, with more complex guitar and drum riffs.
4. Which of the following has these lyrics: "I was eavesdropping that you're tampering with the family circle./ You're not very talented, dealing the addiction nor vacuuming dirt into your pipes."

Answer: Category

 This song is believed to do with drug addiction, and the problems it causes. This is the final song on the album "Nuclear. Sad. Nuclear."
5. "You might be beautiful,/ let's find out" is from which song?

Answer: An Exercise In Self Portraiture: Go Shoot Yourself

 This can be described as being about how the internet has made people different and almost destroyed morals. This is one of their shorter songs, being only 1:55.
6. This song includes the lyrics "What you've accomplished was sickening./ So I'll be sure to return the favor."

Answer: If These Bullets Could Talk

 It finishes off with "You've hurt me hor-horribly, I turned my back (You killed me) I haven't asked for much, but I'll ask you this: Why would you destroy your own best friend?"
7. "Clenching the fist/ raising the brow/ as glass enters the vein./ Justice shines in her dark eyes." is from which song?

Answer: Civeta Dei

 It continues: "As an amber sky drips a tear upon a sunset. This is seraph's dream. Ten crowns drop." This song is about a young girl with thoughts and attempts of suicide.
8. "It sparks the active chords and the stage is set ablaze./ The conductor lights a cigarette, we look at illustrations of ourselves./ The orchestra isn't craving, just isn't craving our attention." These are lines from what song?

Answer: An Aptly Fictional Description

 The end of this song is "Appliances that would blow a fuse at any time while conducting an ancient family recipe to the very next generation. We never saw them coming/ We've been throwing stones at glass houses for too long/ It's such a cliché."
9. These lines are in which song? "Farewell to the Oldsmobile, acknowledge the new models, farewell, farewell/ Set me back in my old sweater for an hour or two."

Answer: Like A Cat

 "Like A Cat" is The Number Twelve's best known self-written song. It is also one of their first two songs to have a music video.
10. We're almost done! "When we meet with good intentions in mind./ It's like tying your arms to the southbound train./ When you extend your hand for peace, It's like tying your legs to the northbound train." is from which of these options?

Answer: Imagine Nation Express

 This song is also from their album, "Mongrel". It is about how the imagination is like a train, how it is hard to control, and how it works.
