| The Goo Goo Dolls – Eyes Wide Open Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| i agree with you froggy this song is about a rich kid, who johnny protraits as being a lazy sponge, who never worked a day in his/her life and always gets what he/she wants. And cant actually see that u cannot buy friends and the world is about more than material objects. | |
| The Goo Goo Dolls – Big Machine Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
hi, WHAT IS A BIG MACHINE? Johnny uses this term as metaphor for the working world as we know it. And to me this song is about a girl tryin to make a living in it as a prostitue. Theres this guy and he has fallen in love with her "I'm in love but you don't care" and the only way he can be with her is if he pays her. "Turn your anger into lust " turn her hate of herself into lust for this man. "Love and sex and loneliness" this is my fav line "Take what's yours and leave the rest Oh i'll survive, God it's good to be alive. " After sex the man pays her, but tells her to leave the rest for him so he can survive. "Swallow all your bitter pills That's what makes you beautiful" this is a reference to pregnancy pills or anti-depressants. "I'm blind and waitin' for you (And I can't believe it's comin' true) " the man's fantasy of being blind folded during sexual intercourse and she is acting it out for him. thats what i get from johnny when hes sings this song anyway. hope u hear it differently next time u listen to it. |
