Braid – Bridge To Canada Lyrics 12 years ago
I think this song is about a guy who plays girls by pretending to be one of the nice guys. I can almost hear a sarcastic tone to Bob's voice when he says "let's hear a cheer/jeer for the 'nice guys.'" And when he speaks of "our guile," I think he means a guy's deceitful ability to play the good guy and get the girl. And obviously the line "if I lead you along then you read me wrong" is like telling the girl, "hey, you knew what the deal was this whole time, I just wanted to get some, sorry not sorry." And for the rest of the song, I have no idea haha.

Jawbox – Whitney Walks Lyrics 12 years ago
I would completely agree. The religious corruption can be seen also in the lines

"'This is not quite time to think. This water's not so bad to drink.' Then chokes a laugh and walks away."

It is like the church controlling it's followers and making them think what the church wants them to think. Or also, and this could be a stretch, but the water could be symbolizing the Bible, and once the person drinks it, or reads and believes it, then the church has them in their grasp.

Regardless, such a great song. The bass kills!

rosalyn carter like sj sands said was the wife of jimmy carter. she did a lot to help mentally and emotionally challenged. so i guess thats why the kiosk in his tempeol lobe is shaped like her?
