Gimmie The Wrench is reminiscent of the classic, Good Will Hunting. The scene where Will chooses the wrench over the stick and belt. The concept of the song doesn’t circle around any of that in a literal way, It is about not requesting leniency in an effort to test yourself. Ben wanted an Eye Of The Tiger-esque anthem for himself as he was heading into a highly stressful period of life and needed a pump up anthem. There’s a lot of reward in stretching out of your depth and the metaphor of choosing the difficult path, when there are obvious ones of least resistance. Will: “He used to just put a belt, a stick, and a wrench on the kitchen table and say, ‘Choose.’” Sean: “Well, I gotta go with the belt there.” Will: “I used to go with the wrench.” Sean: “Why?” Will: “’Cause **** him. That’s why.”
