i didnt know about the song being part of a song called trepanation when i first heard it, so the part about drilling a hole into their head just seemed like a Jeffrey Dahmer reference. The girl is a killer. i mean, she owns a "death kit." I'm not sure where people are getting the idea that theres also a guy who is a killer. |

i always thought this song was about donkey kong. i used to watch the show, which im sure no one remembers, and in it, he lived on kongo bongo island. papa was "king of the congo... deep down in the jungle i started bangin my first bongo." he jumped on barrels or something in the show, and now they have that donkey konga game where you play bongos to control him. "Bangin' on my bongo all that swing belongs to me...I'm a king without a crown" DK is the king of swing, and he doesnt have a crown. he has a tie. idk, its just my thoughts, but i think there are a lot of coincidences. |

okay, the "she doesnt care whether or not hes an island" seemed to me to be an obvious refrence to this poem "No man is an island, entire of itself every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friends or of thine own were any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls it tolls for thee. " The poem is basically saying that everyone is connected and no one is the only person that matters. so when the girl says that she doesnt care either way, it means he could be self centered or not, shes to self centered to really care. |
