| The Dresden Dolls – Mandy Goes to Med School Lyrics | 18 years ago |

I don't understand why everyone relates the gangbanger line to the abortion part. I think that she is saying that is how she feels, pretty sarcasticly. "I've been feeling dull as a coat hanger pretty as a picture of a patient on a fresh iv giddy as a gangbanger with a set of sutures where his magic johnson ought to be" She has been feeling dull as a coat hanger (which is not so dull), pretty as a picture of a patient on a fresh IV (well I have had a lot of IVs and it's really not that pretty), giddy as a gang banger with a set of sutures where his magic johnson ought to be (well not very giddy because what is the gang banger going to do now without his penis? Plus, ouch.) I really think she's just talking about herself for a bit before she gets into the work she is doing. Also I think abortion is illegal in Oklahoma now, so this song might start applying there; But that's just my opinion though. :) |

| The Dresden Dolls – Delilah Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Maybe she is implying that Delilah (whoever that may be) is a schizo because she calls her up like "You won't guess what he's done" and acts like that was just the last straw, but then as always goes back to him. I know the person above me says it's Amanda, but songs can have more than one meaning, and it still might not be Amanda. | |
| The Dresden Dolls – Ampersand Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| This is a wonderful song. I found two different versions on youtube though. The older one (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ROpi_OV4Bg) is pretty good. The newer one (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUvXQRCEbtI&feature=related) is pretty amazing, though she did change some of the words and left out the last two pharagraphs of the song. You should check them out. :) | |

Brink, I don't believe that your able to say that unless you are Amanda Palmer. I also hear Take that, Met your match; and believe that it is about the people in Amanda's past. :) |
