Pretty much agree with what you guys said, but I think the pauses are for comedic value. |

| Deep Purple – Highway Star Lyrics
| 18 years ago

I think his girl is separate from his car, but he's so obsessed with his car that he describes her along the same means as how he does his car (i.e., her parts/features). But she's a cool chick because she's right there with him in the passenger seat when he's screaming through those corners.
But "I seed her?" I hope it's not a literal interpretation. Does that mean she's having his kid? :) Because in the next verse he "seeds" his head ... o_O |

| Beck – Loser Lyrics

http://whiskeyclone.net/ghost/songinfo.php?songID=176 has the best info on Loser's meaning. Here's a fact about the sample at the end:
The sample of "I'm a driver. I'm a winner. Things are gonna change soon, I can feel it." is from the film "Kill the Moonlight." Beck is on the soundtrack, and the director Steve Hanft is an old friend of Beck's. He in turn directed the video for "Loser." |

| Beck – Rowboat Lyrics
| 18 years ago
|
|
she is all / and everything else is small ... I like it for its minimalism. Even after the breakup, with his broken heart, with her a million miles away and never coming back, he still worships her. Sad song, but with a light mood. Genius songwriting in my opinion. |

In this song there's a voice in the background making this "kookooKOO KOO kooKOO!" sound periodically, sounds like a combination of a rooster and a car that won't start. |

Hauntingly bizarre song. I almost want to host a picnic so I can find some semi-reasonable context to quote the last four lines and dumbfound those around me. |

| Ween – I Smoke Some Grass (Really Really High) Lyrics
| 18 years ago
|
|
He smokes and escapes. That's about it. The weed he smokes gets him high, in case you missed it. And unlike firstfever11st's comments, the lyrics are coherent, separate phrases. Periods are your friend, dude. "Money in the pie" is simply a perversion of the metaphor for obtaining "piece of the pie," as in money. The smoker smokes to escape his poverty and loserdom until he can't even comprehend the expression and instead craves some food. The end. |

| Ween – Japanese Cowboy Lyrics

The meaning is pretty straightforward though. His girl left him and he's left feeling out-of-place or like everything concerning his situation "ain't right" ... much like all that stuff he talks about just "ain't right" |

| Ween – Buenas Tardes Amigo Lyrics
| 18 years ago
|
"When he says "you, you LOOK like my brother," you can hear his voice tremble, and on the second or third listen you can imagine him pointing a gun the whole time that he's singing, which really works wonders."
Dead-on, same as what I got from it. |

| Ween – Hey Fat Boy (Asshole) Lyrics

The fact that Ween can repeat four screamed phrases in a Hispanic accent and call it a complete song -- and it is a complete song -- is worth a superlative amount of awesome. That is, to say, "awesomest." |

| Ween – Blackjack Lyrics
| 18 years ago
|
The image I get when listening to the song is that Blackjack, Black Betty, and Spanish Eddie are three notorious gang members walking up the street, and the onlookers are naming them off, fearfully. Like "Lock your doors and hide your children ... Blackjack's comin'!" The single-note bass strumming definitely contributes to that feeling.
I crack up every time I hear the song if only because the two of them can't manage to say the same thing at the same time -- or keep their laughter in check. |

| Ween – I Can't Put My Finger On It Lyrics
| 18 years ago
|
From http://www.sonic.net/~goblin/ween.html
Lyrics sounding perverse or profound are often just about their favorite munchies. The lyrics, "Is it alive, does it writhe/ can it survive under the sun?/ scathe with a lathe/ all the days in the past /I can't put my finger on it," is about Gene's confusion over a Gyro. |
