| Cracker – Low Lyrics
| 14 years ago

A blue blue is the sun
A brown brown is the sky
A green green are her eyes
if you invert these colors:
orange sun becomes blue,
light blue sky becomes dark orange and brown
red eyes become green
i think this is talking about inverse colors.
that means the girls eyes are red. in that case either her eyes are bloodshot, or she's some kinda demon. I tend to agree with the former, not the latter.
bloodshot eyes seems to strengthen the drug-related interpretation.
just thought i should point that out |

same thing in this song, willywillywilly, only it isn't well publicized in the song, so the publication of the divorce fails. |

I agree w/ backupdork, but the dice mean that we're in a species that is expanding and advancing in many ways, but still foolishly clinging to it's clumsy, laughable, primitive roots. |

This is about a guy's idea that his true love lives on EXACTLY the opposite side of the earth. Vietnam is that place. "her voice is a backwards record" = the garbled craziness of the vietnamese language. "humid air" = vietnams incredible humidity. "water spirals the wrong way out the sink"= the water above the equator spirals clockwise; below: counterclockwise. "still haven't.. ...majestic presence"=they haven't met. Think about it. |

It's about a kid in the bathroom, that's getting school-related(don't know where i put my notes) stress headaches(87 advil...), and locked himself in the bathroom to do something-suicide?, or maybe find the Advil- and his sibling(s) are asking if he's done yet. he gives the typical response "I'm NOT DONE YET, and I won't be 'til my head falls off. that's it.Oh, and the lyrics are wrong. It's not "dripping the liquer" it's "gripping the lectern (sink)" |
