"5 Minutes Alone" is a song by the heavy metal group Pantera from the 1994 album Far Beyond Driven.
Drummer Vinnie Paul explains the song's meaning thusly:
There was a guy in the front row in San Diego who was heckling Phil [Anselmo, vocalist]. Phil finally had enough, so he incited the crowd to jump this guy's ass and beat the shit out of him on the spot, so he sued us. And when his dad called our manager, his exact quote was, "You just give me five minutes alone with that Phil Anselmo guy and I'll show him who's big daddy around here." Phil's response was, "You just give me five minutes with that cat's dad and I'll whoop his ass." That's where that song came from.[1]
