The White Stripes – Icky Thump Lyrics 18 years ago
this is the most damning part of the song. i like how so many ignore the punchline.

Left alone
I hit myself with a stone
Went home and learned how
To clean up after myself.

picking on the immigrants is equivalent to nazi's picking on jews. any scapegoat will do, eh?

Tool – The Pot Lyrics 19 years ago
it's not about pot specificly but makes for good word-play. its that whole 'kids today & their music are so much worse than i was a kid', that the last 100 years+ worth of generations has thought. much like the church thinks scientists today are so much worse than before. the song is about power-groups loosing a sense of control. while these ridiculous power groups aren't 'high' but rather a much more sensible legally drunk, or god-like, or correctly medicated - about their power & the rationales used to propogandize, they'd do just as well to be high because the logic, lobbying, or trials/laws make no sense when there are much more dire needs to be addressed. so a person likes to smoke a l il pot or drink a little booze or kiss a same sex person or have an abortion or get some stem cell operation to heal themselves; the laws & efforts behind stopping these 'evil' are such a distraction & things could much better be concentrated towards ending famine, overpopulation, & other real worldy concerns, & better focused towards greater human growth while we spin on this random rock thru space, which isn't flat nor the center of the universe or other such nonsensical reasons one could have previously gone to prison for... like being a particular race & wanting to drink from a water fountain, or be a particular sex & wanting to vote, or smoking some pot... oh yeah, that ones still on the books.

System of a Down – Hypnotize Lyrics 20 years ago
it's about sitting on asses & not fighting for anything because of simple minded blinded ideas about democracy/freedom/way of life.

Why don't you ask the kids at Tiananmen square?

Discretion, The reason why they were there.

They disguise it, Hypnotise it.
Television made you buy it.

I'm just sitting in my car and waiting for my...

She's scared that I will take her away from there.

Dreams and her country, left with no-one there.

Of course she's scared! We could all stand up & get grounded & not have the crap we so desperately need! No digital! No tv! no flatscreen! No hot pockets! No iPods! No mall, no box-store! No downloads! No cable! No HD! No gas! No prescriptions! No net! No flu shots! No essentials!!!

Mezmerized the simple minded, propaganda leaves us blinded.

I'm just sitting in my car and waiting
for my girl.

Just sitting around on my ass waiting for someone else to get it too.

Bob Dylan – Like a Rolling Stone Lyrics 20 years ago
do you only get to 'know' this song if you go from no-clue high class & then loose it? or would we all be in this state say a big solar flare knocks out everyone's batteries & power & such? crap, pure crap. hippie beatnik power goes to your head as his peers go off &, not sell out, but sell a misguided skewed view of an era that's made a complete generation of baby BOOM! craddle & all out sell outs. ideal realist fodder to feed hungry howling youth about idealism. what did a hippie do for you lately? probably vote with dollars for their best interest & roll you.
how's it feel? it sucks, thanks for asking.

Nine Inch Nails – Every Day Is Exactly the Same Lyrics 20 years ago
it's a classic suicide song. put your note on a lil' piece of paper *sniffle* maybe someone, if anyone cares, will go rummaging thru my shit, to find my unhappy note in the back. if you stop taking the numbing pills, watch fight club & i heart huckabees & eat a bowl of pudding it ain't that bad. or, just go & fucking have a lil' less passive agressive crap & outright do it with the note on your chest.

Cuz that's what you'll be
Just hold back the night "

...i was there, but then she did it.
& i make sure each day i'm willing.

David Bowie – China Girl Lyrics 21 years ago
i think it's about this guy who
gets so obessesed about this crazy world & wants to 'fix' it with dictator/hitler/messianic tendencies of the extreme as solutions to it all.

but that its her & only her he tries to focus, to live for him, them, & not be involed with the rest because he can't realistically be this one world solution, he knows it, aggravating as it is.

he gives her an out even with warnings that he'll take even her down he's so determined & might go to the ultimate extreme to do so, even writes her off as some silly thing that will be ok with tv like all the other boob-tube freaks.

& she says in so many words
oh you silly man, that's why i love you just shhh
& enjoy this moment cos thats all we can really have.

Nine Inch Nails – The Line Begins to Blur Lyrics 21 years ago
he's playing frisbee, but doesn't see it coming. he figured out there's a sunny day that he's not enjoying cos he's so stuck in his head debating something (inner child/adult? rocker/non-rocker? rebelling/conforming?) and regardless of his point of view or motivation at the moment, it's all still him each & everytime & there's no double dual reality/mentality like he'd hoped... oh, & it's still sunny out & he's still not enjoying it. stop thinking about shit trent, just let it go & come play frisbee. otherwise you're not going to see it coming & i'm going to beam you right between the eyes then it really will be blurry.
