They Might Be Giants – Particle Man Lyrics 19 years ago
the stanza about person man and especially the line "who came up with person man" makes me think that they're trying to say that with all these superheroes who cares about a regular person. I'm not sure what the superheroes represent but I love the line about Universe Man's watch.

Muse – Take a Bow Lyrics 19 years ago
I'm not sure if it's a direct political commentary to the government today. I feel like that's not Muse's style. It seems more like it's about a hypothetical corrupt leader of a country. I also think that "Take a bow" is ironic/sarcastic, like "aren't you proud of all the death you've caused"

Tally Hall – Be Born Lyrics 19 years ago
this song is about being born.
"swimming pool" is the womb.
"all you pink skinned babes" is infant babies
"get out there and see the sun/you're only six inches away from becoming one" Only six inches away from becoming a sun (SON)
"there's a dozen people here and they're waiting for you/it's your party you can cry if you want to" this is talking about the people in the hospital while the baby's being born.

in the second verse, "she" is the mother of the baby.

this is a great great song and it's even better when you fully understand it.
