Benladen, if Yoni has contempt for himself, I don't think it's over his musical career.

Grand Buffet – Americus (Religious Right Rock) Lyrics 18 years ago
I would go so far as to say that they hate the religious right.

Yeah, it's totally "be empty the rest." BMT the rest doesn't make any damn sense.

Why? – Gemini (Birthday Song) Lyrics 19 years ago
I don't think I used the word "diversion" right at all. Ain't that a bitch when you're trying to sound all knowledgable and you end up looking like a jackass?

Why? – Gemini (Birthday Song) Lyrics 19 years ago
We're all forgetting Yoni's suicidal side in this song... I mean, when he played at the ottobar, he prefaced the only hymie's basement song with "this wasn't isn't about suicide... unlike the rest of them." He was kind of kidding, of course, but most of the songs really are suicidal (rubber traits and light leaves really don't even try to suggest otherwise.

I think the whole diversion between wolf and the girl is the fact that yoni isn't really planning on living that much longer. I mean, the whole thing is so heavily filled with death images, he says shit like "will you still remember me if i don't get to two oh oh five," he's wondering if the girl will love him when he's dead.

It hads a really depressing edge to the song, but it's a helluvalot more powerful.

The Waitresses – I Know What Boys Like Lyrics 19 years ago
oh, and she didn't write the lyrics, either. Sorry, I just Wikipedia-ed the Waitresses, and yeah, the lyrics were written by a man. So, again, "i am the law," you are a cunt.

The Waitresses – I Know What Boys Like Lyrics 19 years ago
you are not the law, you're a dumbass who doesn't like feeling insignificant when it's brought to his attention that the most active part of his brain is the penis, and women have the ability to fuck with them as such. But it's a good song, and it's hardly sexist, and damn do I want to have sex with the lead singer.

King Missile – Detachable Penis Lyrics 19 years ago
The girlfriend metaphor is stupid. It's over analyzing a song that does NOT ask to be analyzed.

King Missile – America Kicks Ass Lyrics 19 years ago
I'd say John loves America, but can speak about it satirically as well. And that's what this is. Entirely.

The Unicorns – Inoculate the Innocuous Lyrics 19 years ago
drugs are certainly a factor in some of these lyrics. "abosrbed and collected in the glands of fatty tissues" refers to the storage of THC (active ingredient in mariuana) in the body, as it's stored in the fat long after the effects have worn off; that's what shows up on drug tests. the meaning is unresolved, but don't nix the drug factor.

Why? – Light Leaves Lyrics 19 years ago
Very lovely suicide piece, which fits in pretty perfectly with the rest of the elephant eyelash CD. For a very, very similar piece, see Cex's "Kill Me," which is also a fantastic song similar in tone if not style. I especially love the image of the tiny bone hands of the leaves.
