Limp Bizkit – Hot Dog Lyrics 15 years ago
Critically acclaimed and one of Limp Bizkit's most adored songs, "Hot Dog", still has stood the testament of time as one of the most meaningful meditations of the human soul in the history of written word. Alongside Shakespeare, Milton, and the Bible, Fred Durst challenges our perspective on life and human interaction with his lyrics,
"We're all fucked up
So whatcha wanna do?
We fucked up me
And fucked up you"

I believe it was Pitchfork that called these "Groundbreaking lyrics that cut to the core of the listener. All hail the Chocolate Starfish!"

Few know that Fred Durst was in a very special period in his life when he wrote this. After returning home from his three year journey across Africa and India, he cited a very profound moment when he had when he swam across The Black Sea(The Hot Dog Flavored Water). In his experience he understood the true nature of man and God, and he spoke truly of our meaning in this life when he sung
"Hooo Haaa Haaaw!
Listen up baby
You.. can't.. bring.. me.. (bring me).. down"

Few will ever come close to this apex of literature and only some will be able to comprehend it's full meaning.
In conclusion, Mr. Durst stands above ordinary "fuckers" like you and me because he has a vision, something we cannot see, but we must blindly follow him as he travels on this musical adventure.
When Paul McCartney sat on the piano to write "Hey Jude" (one of the most overrated songs of all time), his intentions were no greater than to create a pleasant pop song to enjoy on a summer afternoon. However, when Mr. Durst literally humped the camera in the music video for "Take A Look Around" (Mission Impossible 2), his intentions were not for money or enjoyment (though there was much of both). He aspired not only to create glorious art, but to move us, to make us feel as if the whole world were crumbling beneath us, and only by "getting the fuck up" could we ever swing on the nuts of Fred Durst. And we did.

Farewell. God Bless.
And do it all for The Nookie.

The Ting Tings – Shut Up and Let Me Go Lyrics 15 years ago
Okay, I will correct you Katie.
He raped her.
He's raping her.
"Your jeans were once so clean."
They were....until the rape.
Just thought I'd let you know
what this song, which you've been listening
to over 25 trillion times is actually about.

Have a nice day!

Bishop Allen – The News From Your Bed Lyrics 15 years ago
I'm thinking this song is about an old person.
One whose family has left them (even though they assure them on the phone)
and lives alone, with the mice, with nothing to do.
No one calls, forgotten and old.
The third verse maybe implying the character called for a car
to go dancing, but wasn't taken seriously. (Are they in on it too?)
" I can pour my own drinks" shows their struggle to not be babied
while still dealing with the loneliness of independence.

But mostly I've always thought it's about an old person
because they wear an evening gown. I figure that's an old
person custom.

Tom Waits – Two Sisters Lyrics 15 years ago
What do you think the repetition applies to?
"Bow, balance to me."
and
"And I'll be true to my love if my love'll be true to me"

You think that's just Wait's singing the refrain.
Or perhaps what Willie is saying, under the
false impression of the older sister didn't kill Kate.

Wolf Parade – You Are A Runner And I Am My Father's Son Lyrics 15 years ago
I gotta say I agree with the first one,
this is about him knocking up a girl
and she leaves him.
That would explain the number on him.
In the morning, or when he first met her,
he was a hero, and all was good,
but by night, after he got her pregnant,
he's not a hero.
I think pregnancy best explains:
"and I'll build a house inside of you
I'll go in through the mouth
I'll draw three figures on your heart
one of them will be me as a boy
one of them will be me
one of them will be me watching you run"

He'll build something inside of her,
he kissed her.
She'll have the figure of a young him, (the child)
him,
and her running away.
