The Drones – Locust Lyrics 18 years ago
I love this song, and just watched them play it at the Annandale hotel.
A couple of lines confuse me though.
"left a suicide note and i've got him to thank for that"
When he says 'him' is he referring to Georgie's father - i.e.she committed suicide coz of the way she was treated by her dad? Or is it referring to the previous line "put louie in the jack", meaning it's thanks to drugs that she committed suicide.

And this one: "and he can thank our statesmen hosts
although his chances are remote"
I love this line. It has such a great ring to it. And always sticks out when you hear it. But what exactly does it mean? Is 'he' meaning her father again? I understand that statesmen means politicians, but what are the remote chances? Maybe it just sounded incredibly poignant and he went with it.


and he can thank our statesmen hosts
although his chances are remote
