@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
What kind of world is this that we're living in when a man accused guilty of rape
Is still freed from the charges miraculously if he confesses that he's made a mistake
Is a woman supposed to just spread both her legs and let the sexual ritual proceed
If she doesn't say no to do you have her permission to treat her any which way you please?
Does the fact that she's wasted somehow make it accepted that she can't tell what's
Right from what's wrong.
Are the clothes that she's wearing an oblivious signal that
The rape is allowed to go on. You take it for granted cos' you've got the advantage
It's a logic that I find hard to follow. It still doesn't mean that the decision is
Is yours and I find your excuse hard to swallow
He clears his name
And she gets all the blame
If a woman raped a man
Would the verdict be the same?
He clears his name
And she gets all the blame
If a woman raped a man
Would the verdict be the same?
Tell me what were you thinking, if you even were when you forced her to go all the way
Did you feel like a big man
When you were on top of her
Did you make that bitch pay?
You're not a man, you're the scum of the earth
You had the whole thing
Planned from the start and you've got the guts to say you feel like a virgin
There's not a soft spot in your heart
He clears his name
And she gets all the blame
If a woman raped a man
Would the verdict be the same?
He clears his name
And she gets all the blame
If a woman raped a man
Would the verdict be the same?
You make it seem as if she should have seen it coming as if that was a valid excuse
But whatever you say you still know what you've done and nothing justifies the abuse
It takes two too tango so don't you try and tell us that you were sure that
You heard her say yes
We don't believe you it's your cock doing the talking
So why don't you just fucking confess?
He clears his name
And she gets all the blame
If a woman raped a man
Would the verdict be the same?
He clears his name
And she gets all the blame
If a woman raped a man
Would the verdict be the same?

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."
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
