Lifter Puller – The Pirate And The Penpal Lyrics 16 years ago
Slight change -

don't wear those push-up pants, you've got enough nicknames already

should be

don't wear those push-up pants, to the football dance, you've got enough nicknames already


This song is amazing. Quite simply about an girl who isnt particularly pretty and doesnt fit in, but has a criminal penpal. She saves money from her job and spends it all on stamps when really she'd be better off kissing the mailman instead. The last verse implies that either (a) she tries to bust him out of jail but it goes wrong, or (b) this is his story, how he got caught, and now she just sits hoping one day he'll get probation so she can see him.

Camera Obscura – Books Written for Girls Lyrics 16 years ago
Dearjulianna got it right. Its pretty sarcastic about boys who are all into the right books and music and ideas, but then just turn out to be the same as everyone else.

Even though it sounds totally sad, I dont see it as tracyanne moping around after a break-up or anything, its pretty scathing in parts.

The first verse heavily references leaving Sweden, where they recorded the album.

LCD Soundsystem – All My Friends Lyrics 17 years ago
This song is about trading real friends in for the fast-moving rock and roll new-friend-every-day lifestyle. You get entranced by it, all the new faces. But it all burns out, and you realise that you had amazing friends before. And you probably neglected them because you thought you were getting something more exciting.

Malcolm Middleton – Solemn Thirsty Lyrics 17 years ago
This song is amazing. It is about that heartbreaking moment when you realise that you can love someone so much but you still arent meant to be together. Its so fatalistic.. lets meet up at the end of time.. beautiful.
