The Kills – Alphabet Pony Lyrics 17 years ago
Alphabet pony - reminds me of those alphabet blocks that kids play with that usually have a horse or a pony on one side of them.

When I read these lyrics I picture this as the alphabet pony seeing the life of a poor family through it's own eyes.

The alphabet pony goes everywhere with the little boy, so he experiences the dirty "soda hands" of the boy, he thinks the stuffed monkey is "phoney", he sees the jesus on the dashboard of a poor family trying to hold onto their faith.

I think the last two verses are more about the single mom (you can tell I've thought about this) who is scatterbrained and can't seem to settle into a routine, probably works a crazy schedule (hence the cancel sunday cancel monday). The Mom works hard for what they have but struggles to get by; the boy and the Mom walk the town and she buys cigarettes and something to drink.

They have an okay life.

The Kills – Tape Song Lyrics 17 years ago
This song sounds like its about a girl who stole someone's boyfriend, and they are starting to have problems, now the ex girlfriend of the guy is singing about it and saying "time and glue won't fix these problems because you guys aren't meant to be, you've got to move on with full force" (go steal ahead)

The Kills – Cheap and Cheerful Lyrics 17 years ago
this song is obviously about DRUGGGSSSSSS. She's sick of the boring everyday chit chat and social graces...she wants to be crazy and feel what it feels like to live. Reminds me of my friend Si Si. I love this song

The Kills – U.R.A. Fever Lyrics 17 years ago
It sounds like it's about Vegas. All the references to numbers, the "pony" reference and the clown reference. I have no idea though really I was hoping someone on here would have an idea...that's just what the words remind me of is Vegas - especially the part where she says H: Find a piece of silver,
(V: Pretty as a diagram) V: Put it in my left hand - reminds me of getting married on a whim. I dunno does anyone else have an idea?

The Kills – Getting Down Lyrics 17 years ago
This song to me, personally, is someone getting out of a long term relationship. They are on the market again and "getting down" with being single and dating again. Hence the "awkward moments" and "sour kisses"...
