| Weezer – Pig Lyrics

No good literature--poetry and songwriting included-- would be without metaphorical meanings. This song is probably not just about a pig. More likely, as others have mentioned, its an allegory about the life of man. We're young and play, grow up, find someone to love, and eventually die. The lyrics also explain that that life is really all there is, but that is enough to draw happiness from. That is what life is all about--finding happiness before death. |

everestdesign's interpretation is probably the most accurate. Rivers talks about celibacy quite a bit and even makes references to it in earlier songs such as "tired of sex". He doesn't believe in meaningless sex (I do!), and believes he's reached a "higher" place spiritual and would like to take his audience to that place ("I'll take you there, my friend
I'm reaching out my hand, so take it") |
