@Yosemiteguy Interesting idea, however Gregg wrote this long before Duane's death. I think it's literally about a train, lol, but like all great art, it has a lot of metaphoric meaning. |

Clearly this is a song about a guy who likes to urinate on his women. Sometimes they're not into it, and he misses them when they freak out and run away. Other times they're into it, and 'comin in for something warm'. You know, warm, like piss. |

@[foreverdrone:35356] Totally another good catch here. I guess being out back then was possible for some, and not others, and again, she's being very teasey to her friend Geffen. |

@[barole:35355] I totally get that too. The language is totally poking at him, but in a very loving and familiar way. Sort of like a parent of a privileged kid that's complaining about how hard their life is. I know that they were very good friends, but I'm sure she got tired of him bemoaning his life all the time, and this song was the result. |

I've heard from various people that this song was about getting your period, but I think it's really about the war on drugs, and saline breast implants. |

| Beyoncé – Drunk in Love Lyrics

This is an over romanticized song about having to take a crap. It's about any kind of shit taking experience, as long as it's epic, profound and violent. The kind of shit that changes your life forever. A nails dug in, raking across your bleeding sweating thighs dump. Teeth clamped down on a rolled up bible, heart on the inside out death camp rape down murder dump. A mike Tyson vs That pig who shot mike brown "hands up I cant fucking breath" dump. A parade of unicorns and drunken clowns. A pyroclastic juggernaut of underripe and oversized Chilean cantaloupes mixed with battery acid and rusty nails. A dump that cleanses your soul. Redemption dump. New beginnings and hope, until tomorrow, and that cup of office joe. |

There are a lot of ways this song can be interpreted, but I think it's pretty straight forward. No mystery here. This song is clearly about the time that Elvis Presley shoved his veined and swollen blood bomber into Ann-Margret's winkin' pink brownie cake, pulled out a big fat pitted cherry, and shot cream filling all over the wet, pendulous lard bags on her chest. |

| Mac DeMarco – Treat Her Better Lyrics
| 10 years ago
|
When Mac was touring the festival circuit, he ended up hanging out with Kevin Parker and Kevin's gf Melody Prochet of Melody's Echo Chamber.
Mac has a very big personality and is super funny. Kevin is a bit uptight and was getting annoyed by Mac getting a lot of attention, particularly from his girlfriend Melody.
Anyway, Kevin sort of started being a dick, ignoring her, etc. being a little bitch. He ended up realizing it and came correct by apologizing and expressing his disappointment with himself. Everything is cool now.
I just totally made all of that up that up, btw , but hell this "Type" is called "My Opinion", so I can put whatever I want here.
It's actually about the time space aliens came down from UrAnus and opened a Jamaican Beef Pattie stand in Los Angeles. They were discovered to be aliens because everyone knows that Jamaicans fucking hate Los Angeles. |

| Mac DeMarco – Chamber of Reflection Lyrics
| 10 years ago
|
|
In greek mythology, 'chamber' represents 'excessively stretched ballsack', and 'reflection' represents vanity. This song is a cautionary tale that attempts to warn the listener that stretching one's ballsack tissue past a certain length will have diminishing returns, and in fact Reflect one's ego back filling the void inside the ballsack, ultimately destroying it. |

| Mac DeMarco – Baby's Wearing Blue Jeans Lyrics
| 10 years ago
|
This song, on the surface, is about a guy who has a blue jean fetish, and just wants his hookup to play along. Blue jeans are often a metaphor for pork rinds. Pork rinds can be fried (chicharones), or baked in a pie (pork rind pie). Mac
In this song, Demarco brilliantly expresses his desire to enjoy a grilled hamburger (medium rare) with a side of vegetarian baked beans, all using the pork rind analog. Genius. |

A somewhat loving criticism of young men who try too hard. "in the end, none of it matters", is what I think Mac Demarco is trying to say. |

| Electric Six – Free Samples Lyrics

I think the line is:
I think you look better with a hook in your mouth
not
I think you look better when you open your mouth
The song is about suckers willingly giving up loads of money for worthless crap with percieved value, when it has no value at all. This can be anything: music, art, clothing, cars, dog shit, etc. |

| Pink Floyd – Astronomy Domine Lyrics

|

If this song was just about acid, it would suck. Its exact meaning is irrelevant. What it evokes is something that a lot of Floyd songs do, even after Syd. A sense of fear around darkness, emptiness, and the power of that fear. This song relates that horror to the profound darkness and cold of space and the universe. This is not a unique perspective. The universe holds all the secrets of dark and light. It's all there. What you bring relates to what you take away. I've looked and seen overwhelming emptiness, then again, I've felt the comfort of harmony, and infinite light of being connected and part of it all, from the tiniest atom on up. |

I'm not sure what this song is about, since I don't really know French, but I think it has something to do with french fries, and french toast and not wearing underpants. |

What it says. Probably referencing the ancient philosopher Epicurus, who basically said the same thing (2500 years ago).
The "sex and drugs and rock n' roll" part is a reference to the ian dury song of the same name. |

Everyone trying to interpret this song. Art is not about literals, it's about abstractions. Just hear the song. Reason and logic doesn't apply. Art communicates to the part of your brain that doesn't necessarily have a standard language. That the point. |

I always felt that the music starts out mocking the girl, then sort of turns into a lament. But maybe I'm just projecting my own shit on it, haw haw haw. |
