Flobots – Handlebars Lyrics 17 years ago
I think this song is about abuse of power, and they're trying to say that just because you CAN do something, doesn't necessarily mean that you SHOULD do it, especially when he says things like,

"I can make anybody go to prison, just because I don't like 'em."
And especially...
"I can lead the planet in a holocaust."

I also noticed that as the song progresses, the "I can..."s slowly become more complex & sinister, which I think is showing that the more time you spend on Earth, you more likely you are to become corrupted. However, by ending the song by going back to riding your bike with no handlebars, it is saying that sometimes ignorance really is bliss.

Defiance, Ohio – Grandma Song Lyrics 17 years ago
I think this song is about the naïvety of childhood, and the naïve-like prudishness that elderly people tend to posess.
When you're a child, you are shielded from the evils of the world by the adults in your life...

"Grandma tucks you in at night,
Says, "Never be afraid of anything outside"

...But more often then not, this just leads to ignrance as the kid becomes an adult...

"Godnight, little sweet,
Watch everything recede."

Kelly Clarkson – Because of You Lyrics 18 years ago
I think it's about a child who has two very different parents, both of whom are emotionally overbearing in very different ways, but who both can't understand why the child is so depressed & ungrateful.

This song is amazing by itself, but the lyrics remind me of thebook/movie The Golden Compass, which is also amazing.

Defiance, Ohio – The New World Order Lyrics 18 years ago
Is this an anti-Bush song disguised as a pro-Bush song? Or is it actually a pro-Bush song?

Or is it something completely different that I'm just totally missing?
