| Five Iron Frenzy – No Grandma = Know Grandma Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
This may be the funniest song ever written. In case you don't follow Ridiculously Stupid Christian Bumper Stickers (good on you), one of the worst offenders is along the lines of "No God? Know Fear!" or something lame like that. |

| The Weakerthans – Pamphleteer Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| Gestetner is a printing press - I was driving home one day and saw a billboard for Gestetner printing machine, and I almost jumped out of my seat, spurting something about "WT#%^WEARKTANPAMPLET - THATS WHAT IT MEANS!" | |

| The Weakerthans – Elegy for Elsabet Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
I dunno. Since an 'elegy' is a kind of song sung either in mourning or for the dead, I always assumed Betta was a little girl who died, and all of these sounds were kind of a eulogy for a kid. When I hear the lines about rain clattering down, winter, gray skies, and people walking away, I think of a winter funeral in a city graveyard. I don't know why I never made the connection with 'reading daddy's lips', but I always assumed that line and the 'rooms too much has happened in' line meant that she died after her dad beat her or something...crap, I'm so depressing D: The explanation that she's deaf makes much more sense and is much less awful and sad, so I'll stick with that! |
