Weezer – My Name Is Jonas Lyrics 17 years ago
Hmmm. Everyone seems to be picking up on the negative "fed up with life" interpretation for these lyrics. I must say though, I've never thought that. I get a strong sense that this song is extremely anti-authority. I agree that the song's all about bad stuff happening and getting really disheartened, but what about the lyrics:

"Fresh out of batteries, but still makin' noise, makin' noise"?

To me that's basically saying that, whatever shit life throws at you, you refuse to be knocked down by it. And I think it fits really well with the "the workers are going home!" sung over and over again at the end. It's a big "fuck you!" to "the man".

Anyone else think this?

Sebadoh – Soul and Fire Lyrics 18 years ago
Hah, I love this song. I read it as being extremely bitter. The first 4 lines being about the "situation" in general. I.e he's wondering if he was just infatuated or if it was true love and the pain of being rejected etc. Next 8 lines I feel are addressed to a girl saying he won't be there for her anymore and is giving her up. The last lines I think are addressed to the person listening to the song saying that giving up on someone is, unfortunately, sometimes the best thing you can do. I can relate to it if it's that. Recently had to ditch a fairly...mentally unstable friend / ex because she was being far, far too difficult and was, well, going completely mental.
