This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Chicka-pow! Don't shoot me down
Oh no, how low can you go
Driving fast to get to work
Queen is there just being a jerk
Running her mouth a million times an hour
She's talking trash
It's going sour
That stuff that makes you hurt
Cut you down, make you hit the dirt
Say, she's driving that DIVA thing
That D-I-V-A diva thing
Sing
Why can't you say you're sorry
For treating me so naughty
Just want an apology
Is that against your personal theology
What'd I do to deserve this
How'd I get on your bad list
Just want to make it right
Please Queen please
Let's not fight
Let's not fight, let's not fight
I don't wanna fight tonight
You had your chance to right your wrong
Can't we all just get along
[Chorus:]
You go and talk behind my back
Don't you know that's whack
It's a personal attack
Oh snap
Some friend you are to me
You're Miss Personality
Are you too blind to see
You're such a drama queen
Fresh off the chopping block
She cut me deep and it hurts a lot
She hit me with her best shot
And never gave a second thought
That's too much drama for me mama
Why do you like to stir it
When I am near you throw fits
You cry oh me, me, me
Ain't you got no decency
You dish it out, I take it
I wish you'd just stop fakin'
In your mind your grass is green
But I know you's a drama queen
You're such a, you're such a
You're such a drama queen
[Chorus]
She's a drama queen, if you know what I mean
She'll get under your skin and make you scream
Oww, drama queen
I need a vaccine 'cause you so mean
You got a disease I don't need
And it pays no heed to get it
So better quit it
'Cause a friend in need is a friend indeed
And you ain't that
You's a drama queen
Emphatic, dramatic, you're like a psychosomatic
You're always so problematic
Your drama is cinematic
There's no comparison to the damage you've done
But you've only begun with your hit and runs
[Chorus]
Oh no, how low can you go
Driving fast to get to work
Queen is there just being a jerk
Running her mouth a million times an hour
She's talking trash
It's going sour
That stuff that makes you hurt
Cut you down, make you hit the dirt
Say, she's driving that DIVA thing
That D-I-V-A diva thing
Sing
Why can't you say you're sorry
For treating me so naughty
Just want an apology
Is that against your personal theology
What'd I do to deserve this
How'd I get on your bad list
Just want to make it right
Please Queen please
Let's not fight
Let's not fight, let's not fight
I don't wanna fight tonight
You had your chance to right your wrong
Can't we all just get along
[Chorus:]
You go and talk behind my back
Don't you know that's whack
It's a personal attack
Oh snap
Some friend you are to me
You're Miss Personality
Are you too blind to see
You're such a drama queen
Fresh off the chopping block
She cut me deep and it hurts a lot
She hit me with her best shot
And never gave a second thought
That's too much drama for me mama
Why do you like to stir it
When I am near you throw fits
You cry oh me, me, me
Ain't you got no decency
You dish it out, I take it
I wish you'd just stop fakin'

But I know you's a drama queen
You're such a, you're such a
You're such a drama queen

She's a drama queen, if you know what I mean

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Actually, its about a boss that they had that was kindof a jerk. But, drama king..just doesnt sound right haha.
I love this song so much haha. This band is amazing.
