| Leonard Cohen – Bird on the Wire Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
I think this song is about the kind of small rebellions that we all attempt in life- 'like a drunk in a midnight choir' - nobody notices the drunk is there amongst all the other singers, but he's getting a kick out of his small rebellion - 'Like a bird on the wire' - the bird is free and above and apart from the world but still connected to it. It's about how we would all love to be free (from reality), but we have to live with the fact that it is impossible. |

| Cranes – Beautiful Friend Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| I don't know where these lyrics are from, whether they're actually the official lyrics or not, but I always heard the line written here as: 'For my love that came true' as: 'For my love for you'd been true'... I like that better anyway! | |
| Morrissey – Piccadilly Palare Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
I have nothing of interest to add, just that, to me, the line "No, no. No, no, no. You can't get there that way. Follow me..." sounds like my grandad, who has a deep Kentish accent... I didn't realise it was Suggs though until I read these comments! |
