Nico – The End Lyrics 18 years ago
I disagree, that one part of the song is of course about Oedipus Rex but the rest of the song is simply about dying/death.

Listen to John and Yoko's song 'Walking on Thin Ice' and then this song right after, knowing that recording Walking on Thin Ice was the last thing John ever did....

Jefferson Airplane – Volunteers Lyrics 18 years ago
I don't believe it's talking about the people being drafted, I believe it's talking about the revolutionaries, those demonstrating in anti-Vietnam war, peace marches, and the like.

Josh Ritter – Bone Of Song Lyrics 18 years ago
Bone, like skeleton, that which he speaks of is the skeleton or the frame of all songs, it is what music is made of...and therefore, the muse, like Sarah said above.

Peter, Paul and Mary – Puff (The Magic Dragon) Lyrics 18 years ago
What the dragon symbolizes does matter...it symbolizes child-like innocence and naivete, which is lost as one passes into adulthood.
ITS A TRAGEDY

Josh Ritter – Thin Blue Flame Lyrics 19 years ago
The line "They’re guilty when killed and they’re killed where they’re found" is a commonly misunderstood line from the Qur'an...its often quoted and used as anti-Islamic/pro-War propaganda kinda thing. So I think with this line, Josh is addressing how violent Islamic Extremists are.

Cat Stevens – Another Saturday Night Lyrics 19 years ago
Is it just me or does it sound like he says, "I got some money 'cause I just got laid"?
I think it's just me.
Anyway, this is a great song (:

Phish – Character Zero Lyrics 19 years ago
beaner: the message I got is that he learned something a month ago, then yesterday he learned that it's completely wrong...so the fact that what he learned is about taking your time or hurrying everything isn't actually important to the meaning of the song, the meaning of the song is that "all I learn is always wrong."
But I might be wrong (:
