| The Dillinger Escape Plan – Party Smasher Lyrics

Since a party crasher is someone that goes to a party uninvited, i figure a party smasher is someone who comepletely wrecks the place without it being planned. It seems to be about a very flawed girl who is physically beautiful who has a pretty empty relationship with someone. They broke up and, even though he is definately over her to the point where she is worthless to him, they still can't escape each other in a situation seemingly outside their control "stuck in a play we can't leave". |

Don't know much about other Macaulay Culkin movies that this song could be influenced by, but i just think its pretty ironic that its named after the actor in the home alone series who keeps getting left behind places, and then the song is about a guy going crazy over being being forgotten and ignored by someone. hahaha maybe i'm the only one who finds that funny. |

It could well be about prostitution, but i interpreted it as something more general in that its about playing games and lying to girls and abuse them for sex without being emotionally attached. I love the interchange between the soft singing of what he says to the girl "Me and you, we are the light.. give me your hand" and the screaming in his true emotions "You're the joke". Its pretty much summed up in the line "how sacred is the web that must be spun" as we think of romance as pure and yet in this song its all about the sexual conquest -"Make us proud for days". The idea of manipulation and superiority in being emotionally detached in physical relationships comes up a bit in Dillinger's music. |

the recording that is played during this instrumental is supposedly from a 1934 propaganda film called "dillinger, public enemy no. 1". It says "Here lies the inevitable end for criminals like Dillinger. The electric chair yawns for its fodder of calloused human beasts whose warped minds prompt evil deeds. The wages of sins is death." It then repeats "Crime never pays". The band's reference to dillinger makes sense, and it certainly creates a creepy sense of inhumanity when played with the music. I don't know if it has any more meaning than this, or what the radio overlay about the government agent is from... |
