| Paramore – Franklin Lyrics
| 15 years ago

To me, this song represents the dilemma that I and many other first-generation college students feel. I love my family and like going home, but I feel out of place now. Like, I don't blindly enjoy the things that I used to at home and joking with my family because I analyze things from a totally different perspective now.
I really like this song. |

I've also heard this interpretation and agree with it.
Also, all over the coat is written words such as "fetish." |

The more I listen to it, the more I am sure that it's incredibly sarcastic towards her father. Even the music sets up this hokey 50s vibe like everything is all Leave It To Beaver. |

I'm not either, but that's not the point. There are many people on some kind of drug that you wouldn't even expect. Way more people than would like to admit it. |

I just read somewhere that she did an interview where she talks about hating her father and how she never wants to patch things up with him. So perhaps this song is fantastically executed sarcasm? |

| Lily Allen – Him Lyrics

Though she may mean more by it, I chuckled at the Creedence Clearwater Revival reference just because it rhymed with the previous line and it was a random band name that she could choose that fit the syllables of the song and still rhyme.
I guess I could see how some could interpret lines of this song as towards George W. Bush, but I really don't think that's it. Honestly, it feels like the same reasons why I am not religious. She's discussing all these hypocrites who use religions that often decry violence and hatred to commit violent and hateful acts. (Murdering Dr. Tiller in his own church would be a pretty recent and prominent example.) As if it somehow makes those acts more justifiable to attach the name of God onto them. |

That's because "who'd of known" doesn't even make sense grammatically. "Who'd Have Known" is the correct way to say it. |

I pretty much got everyone else's interpretation of the song, but I REALLY like the Camelot interpretation. It is so fitting with the music, as well, because the music is not carnival music, but the type of medieval Maypole dance that reminds you of Camelot. |

It never even occurred to me that this could be about the guy getting back at a girlfriend or anything until reading the comments here.
For some reason, I always just figured parts of it were referring to how popular smoking had been back in the 20s (the time period the song reminds me of). It was commonly though that smoking was cool, even sometimes healthy. I don't know why. I just always pictured a girl smoking to fit in, and possibly going into the bathroom because she felt sick, but knew if she didn't smoke like everyone else, she wasn't as good as them (hence the "I'm a diva." line).
The more I type this, the more I see how wrong it was, but hey, when you hear the song on cd over the summer when you don't have internet to come to great sites like this one, you draw strange conclusions.
I love this song. Probably my favorite on this cd. It makes me want to do the Charleston in a flapper dress. |
