"Beat me out of me" sounds like BDSM - hurt me until I lose my sense of self. That reading works for me, even if it's supposed to be about heroin or Toby Vail or nonsense or whatever. |

No comments? Well, I'll give it a shot. I always assumed this was about paparazzi, or maybe celebrity hangers-on in general. She doesn't have a high opinion of them. |

A classic. Normally I couldn't stomach this much self pity, but it somehow wraps around past unbearable to awesome. |

I can't stand it either, and no, all their songs are *not* like this, so you should give them a chance. Just my opinion - everyone who likes this song is welcome to keep enjoying it.
I just realized I'm replying to a comment from 2002 about an album from 1990, so you've probably all moved on... |

| Courtney Love – Motorcycle Boy Lyrics
| 15 years ago

This is by "the other Courtney Love", Lois Effeo. The story I heard is that two housemates came up with the name Courtney Love together. One of them went on to stardom, and the other to indy rock obscurity. I kind of prefer the latter. This is a beautiful and simple song.
By the way, I think there are some mistakes: "Let me give that heap a try", "Mini skirts hitched up in back", "There's a dreamy side of you". |

I agree, this song deserves more than one comment. It's like an old friend to me. The fact that it's addressed to "you" helps it to feel personal. To me it's about the magic of going to sleep, and it is as comforting as a lullaby. |

I agree with Dressed2Depress. Jack off Jill's "Strawberry Gashes" also has the line "some things you lose and some things you just give away", but s-k did it first. |

I love this song. Amazingly, I couldn't find the lyrics to it anywhere on the web. I did my best to rectify that situation, but some of the words are hard to make out. |

It sounds like "parasites and sycophants" to me. Does anyone know what they yell at the start of the "chorus" (before "thieves! liars!...")? |
