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.
You're red, soaking wet.
I'm right next to you.
You're red, soaking wet.
Lets writhe, let me see you trip.
One move that will keep you wet.
Lets fall in a long sadistic trance.
Put the keys in our hands.
Guns. Razors. Knives.
(Fuck with me)
Guns. Razors. Knives
You're red soaking wet.
I'm right next to you.
You're red, soaking wet.
Lets sail in this sea of charms.
Lets drown underneath the stars.
Lets drink with our weapons in our hands.
Lets sleep in this trance.
Guns. Razors. Knives.
(Fuck with me)
Guns. Razors. Knives
You're red soaking wet.
I'm right next to you.
You're red soaking wet.
Guns. Razors. Knives.
(Fuck with me)
Guns. Razors. Knives.
You're red soaking wet.
I'm right next to you.
You're red soaking wet.
I'm right next to you.
You're red soaking wet.
I'm right next to you.
You're red, soaking wet.
Lets writhe, let me see you trip.
One move that will keep you wet.
Lets fall in a long sadistic trance.
Put the keys in our hands.
Guns. Razors. Knives.
(Fuck with me)
Guns. Razors. Knives
You're red soaking wet.
I'm right next to you.
You're red, soaking wet.
Lets sail in this sea of charms.
Lets drown underneath the stars.
Lets drink with our weapons in our hands.
Lets sleep in this trance.
Guns. Razors. Knives.
(Fuck with me)
Guns. Razors. Knives
You're red soaking wet.
I'm right next to you.
You're red soaking wet.
Guns. Razors. Knives.
(Fuck with me)
Guns. Razors. Knives.
You're red soaking wet.
I'm right next to you.
You're red soaking wet.
I'm right next to you.
You're red soaking wet.

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,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Ummmmm............. with this interpretation i'm just scrachin' the surface so i might be wrong, but anyways i think this song has sourt of the same meaning as beware on saturday night wrist, even though he explains the drugs nd stuff as something gratifying (Let's fall in a long sadistic trance, Let's sail in this sea of charms, Let's sleep in this trance, etc)i think that when he says: let's drink with our weapons in our hands he's reffering to the drugs. The lines which says let's writhe let me see u trip one move that will keep u wet i think that since writhe means to twist painfully or somethin like that he's reffering to how a person would try to get out of being an addict (which is painful) but then seeing him trip (which would be not going through with it) nd lastly the line: one move that will keep u wet reffers to how trippin' will keep u in that same state u were in before (which is an addict) nd since being wet is being reffered to as being fuked up then i think that explains the chorus. Another line which he says: put the keys in our hands i think he's reffering to the drugs as being the keys so he could open up that state of euphoria that he explains. finally i think the line which says: let's drown underneath the stars he is reffering to dying while being fuked up. Oh! nd i'm not sure wat he means by Guns, Razors, Knives, fuk wit me..... but like i said i only scratched the surface i wouldn't be suprised if i got it wrong so feel free to correct me........................ anyways cant fukin wait for 5/18 to come!!! the first time i discovered the deftones is like i finally found a missing piece of myself they r fukin great!=D
God your analyzing skills are brilliant. Sooooo much deeper than me haha well done, I'm agreeing with this now.
