| Cherry Poppin' Daddies – Master And Slave Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Professor Knowitall has gotten what appears to me a closer touch on the song. I honestly have no idea what its about, but my ex said its a reference to a book "East of Eden." Which is about a man who has twins (Two for the Price of one.) and his wife leaves him and he get all depressed. I'm not entirely sure if thats true, seeing as I've never read the book, but from what she said, it makes sense. The biblical reference I assume is the man referencing to God that he never helped his son, and the same with the father/son quotes. The Master and slave is him with his depression. He's a Master of it, meaning he can deal with it when he wants, but he's also a slave to it. Same with the doubles at the bar. The references to American iconography and being poor, is the man lives on a farm, and I assume it is set in the past. This is just what I've heard, not entirely sure if its true. |

I agree with the general message of the song, except for "One on the gas, one foot on the grave." I think that might be relating to people who go out and experience possibly life threatening things, to feel the adrenaline. |

| Cherry Poppin' Daddies – Zoot Suit Riot Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| Actually, their right. This song IS abot the Zoot Suit Riots, now I'm not sure about the gaudier, the better part. I've always wanted to buy a zoot Suit, cuz all my girlfriends said I'd look good, but if they are right, then I'd be a pimp. | |
| Streetlight Manifesto – Down Down Down to Mephisto's Cafe Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I agree mostly with high times and snow, except for "Everything's for nothing" I think that part of the song is talking about the judgement day, or apocalypse, and everyone's flipping out and talking about how all these 2000+ years were for nothing since the worlds ending, and he doesn't agree that it will happen. |
