| Stone Temple Pilots – Crackerman Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
What exactly is a Crackerman? There was a movie called Cracker Man. From what I've read, a Crackerman has something to do with fireworks. Sounds like Weiland is contemplating murder in this song. He can't sleep so he's pacing. But I still don't get what a crackerman is supposed to be! This song is still a mystery to me. |

| Puddle of Mudd – Away From Me Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
"A way to put the bottle down And why can’t you see That I’m drowning in a pool of misery" Wes is drinking away his problems. "I’m always afraid That you’re lost in somebody " He's afraid his girl fell in love with someone else. The one thing that I'm unsure about is "How could you let them take you away from me " because this is saying that there is more than one person who's luring her away from Wes. |

| Puddle of Mudd – Heel Over Head Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
The song is clearly about long-term relationship break up. It starts with Wes kicking an ex-girlfriend out his place. My analysis: He's heel over head which is the opposite of the head over heels. He's just sick of this person; which is the opposite of being in crazy about her. "Jet black sky is painted white again." This line is taking the expression 'head over heels' literally. The jet black refers to the asphault of the road. The white refers to the clouds. "You don't save me Or hear me Or touch me Or break me Or think that I'm rippin' a part at the seams " His ex was being insensitive to his feelings so he's sick of staying with her for "year after year after burning year." When I first bought the 'Life on Display' album, I thought POM could have picked a better 2nd single from the album. But the appeal of this song for me is that it has a very unique instrumental sound. |

| Just so you people know, Wes did an interview in which he stated that the song was about him dating a stripper. That clearly explains the "slap my ass" part. | |
