Tool – The Pot Lyrics 16 years ago
Ganja - marijuana, esp. in the form of a potent preparation used chiefly for smoking.

If I'm not mistaken the kangaroo is a reference to the court trials involving marijuana and how everyone who went in was guilty of all charges. In other words it wasn't a fair trial.

Tool – Vicarious Lyrics 16 years ago
I don't know if anybody has already asked this but does anyone know what Maynard says towards the end.
There is a background voice saying something around 5:00. And My curiosity won't let me sleep because of it. Thanks in advance.

Hey does anyone know if this is true and if so what song and cartoon. I read once that Tool had actually allowed some cartoon to use one of their songs as the cartoons theme song. If this is true then please note what cartoon and song was it.

Tool – Sober Lyrics 17 years ago
dickjames does have a point but Tool doesnt always mocks religion.

One piece of evidence is in the album "10,000 Days" the songs Wings For Marie and 10,00 Days.

These songs show that they don't really attack religion but only question it. I think Maynard really does think in a higher power but as any true person should do is to question it. Though our knowledge may be our lock it is also our key to move forward. To question is to know more about one self and others.

As the law states, "For every action there is an opposite and equal reaction". Life doesn't just start something has to cause it. And in turn come the lyrics:

There's a shadow just behind me,
Shrouding every step i take,
making every promise empty,
pointing every finger at me.
Waiting like a stalking butler
who upon the finger rests.
Murder now the path called "must we"
just before the son has come.

This part of the song may mean God, Jesus, and Mary all together. Our shadows are our past. But we must go down to rise up.

Tool – Disgustipated Lyrics 17 years ago
I think wilcodude has hit it on the dot. Maynard, I think, tries to push peoples buttons in order to make themselves realize who they are.

my cousin tried to explain this song to me. What he said was that the begining is an interpretation of what we are now. We use to be sheeps but now were carrots. I know it sounds a bit on the whoolulu side but think about it. If God is our sheperd then were the sheep. But when we displace ourselves from religion we ourselves become carrots. Meaning we help each other see the truth that we most of do not see.

As for the ending I believe it ties to the crickets. The long cricket sound is suppose to put you to sleep. Or at least long enough to put you in a sorta trance. So that way when the message comes in you can sorta experience a kinda of eye opener to the fact of an illusion. The illusion that we are alone. But at the same time a Higher Power must be held true in order to become a life feeder and eater. As the song goes:

Life feeds on
Life feeds on
Life feeds on Life
This is necessary

In other words The Cycle Of Life and how it grows beyond our own expectations
