Melvinsare a bizzare American rock band that usually performs as a trio. They are responsible for influencing genres like sludge, grungeand doom metal. Singer/guitarist Buzz Osborne (aka "King Buzzo") and drummer Dale Crover are constant members while several bass guitarists have cycled through the group. The band was named after a grocery clerk at the Thriftway in Montesano, Washington where Osborne was employed. Melvin was the most-hated fellow employee and the band felt it to be an appropriate name.

Ballad Of Dwight Fry Lyrics
Melvins
I was gone for fourteen days
Could have been gone for more
Held up in the intensive care ward
Lying on the floor
I was gone for all those days
But I was not all alone
I made friends with a lot of people
In the danger zone
See my lonely life unfold
I see it every day
See my lonely mind explode
We're not going away
I coulda lost some weight there
And I really need some rest
Sleeping don't come very easy
In a straight white vest
She'd like to see the little children
She's only four years old
I give her back all of her playthings
Even ones I stole
See my lonely life unfold
I see it every day
See my lonely mind explode
When I go insane
