  • Come Out and Play is a song by The Offspring which is about gang and gun violence in schools, and was the breakthrough hit for The Offspring. The title is a reference to the 1979 movie The Warriors, which features the famous line, "Warriors... come out and play." (thanks, Logan - Bellevue, WA) This song was written after a trip to the Middle East. This is what inspired Dexter to write the catchy guitar riff. The phrase, "Gotta keep 'em separated" came from when Dexter was in medical school. At the time, the band was unsure of how to tie the parts of the song together. One day, Dexter was experimenting with bacteria in vials. He left the vials of bacteria in a room to let them cool down. He came back after an hour or so and noticed that the bacteria were still warm because the two samples of bacteria were interacting with each other since the vials were close to each other. Dexter thought to himself, "I gotta keep 'em separated" and decided to use it to tie the new song together. (thanks, Matt - Houston, TX, for above 2) In the 2006 Adam Sandler movie Click, this song can be heard being played by the marching band in the background during the swimming meet scene in the beginning. (thanks, Kevin - Bethlehem, PA) According to The Offspring's record label website, Smash became the highest-selling album of all time on an independent label.
