| Tori Amos – Hungarian Wedding Song Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| I don't know why, but I imagine that she was with a man who swore he'd marry her just so he could get her into bed. Once he got what he wanted, he walked away from their relationship | |
| Tori Amos – Smokey Joe Lyrics | 17 years ago |

Her lover abuses her and she's sitting at the kitchen table with a gun and a bottle of vodka thinking about shooting him dead. But living without him terrifies her more than the act. She thinks about firing the gun, the way it'll smoke, the way it would end them, but she can't decide what to do it. She starts fantasizing how she'd do it, how she'd get away, how her life would be better. Finally, at the end, he walks in and she holds up the gun on him. Is she going to shoot him or just leave? |

| Tori Amos – Playboy Mommy Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
I think the PB Mommy is a Vietnamese woman who got with an American solider when they invaded her country during the 70s. They met at a popular disco where she and other women trolled for American men. They had a worldwind romance, until she got pregant and he had to go back home. Every weekend, she continued hitting the floor in her platforms, searching for him until her water breaks one day and she "hits the floor". She goes to the hospital and gives birth to a premature daughter. The daughter grows up and looks down on her mother, as does most of their village because she's a "good friend of American soliders". PB Mommy is never there when it counts because she's still barhopping and living carelessly. One day, she isn't there to pick up her daughter from school and the girl never returns home. PB Mommy searches for her but never finds her, so they set up a grave. Years later, the girl returns, now a woman. Turns out she ran away to America to find her father, but never did. Now she's home for her Mother to take her in her arms. |
