| The Lawrence Arms – Chicago Is Burning ... Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
i think they did it on purpose ghost stories is an extremely well-thought-out album 106 South begins with the same two chords but contrasts sharply with the mood and subject matter of Chicago is Burning |

| Menomena – TAOS Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
this is what I hear: oh I'll bet I know what you like at least think I know what you might I'm not the most cocksure guy but I get MORE bold with every smile (small correction) oh I'll bet I know what you like at least think I know what you might I'm not the most cocksure guy but I still sure fight the good COCK FIGHT (im absolutely sure about this one) with every passing night my conscience lessens and seems to pacify these guilt filled SECTIONS (talking about his dick again, methinks) |

been round this road so many times feels like its skin is part of mine this taste of milk is almost gone still got the shape, but not for long been wrong so many times before. but never quite like this. heard all in the rain but the rain all turned to mist. i hope we make it home someday. i doubt that day will come. i know. i guess. life is but a road. |

| Los Campesinos! – Who Fell Asleep In Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
' In a note I read: "If you should go blind and deaf I'll cleanse and I'll bathe you and I'll cook for you daily. I will take a dry ballpoint pen and trace on yr chest All of the same conversations that we have now in bed." I don't mean to be selfish; but I think I'd sooner just be dead ' man, over-obsessive really are the worst. |

| Aesop Rock – I'll Be OK (feat. Slug) Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| Aes and Slug get together, smoke copious amounts of marijuana and write whatever they think about. Cause it'll be ok. That's what this song is. | |
| Aesop Rock – Garbage Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Like most of Aes' songs, the verses are surreal stream-of-consciousness and the chorus is the "thesis" of the songs that helps explain his deranged rambling. He's talking about the effects of human civilization clashing with nature-- especially the negative effects such as pollution and forced adaptation to a new environment. The subject matter is similar to cLOUDDEAD's song 'Rifle Eyes.' Most of Aesop's music deals with the problems in American society, especially corporatism, environmental damage, social inequality, and destruction. Keeping this is mind, lines such as "Ghostly galleon, tossed upon cloudy seas Antifreeze to glacier cookin' a look of fiery nature " make a lot more sense. And then sometimes he just spits nonsense that sounds cool. |

| Pixies – Break My Body Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| This song is about fucking your immediate family, trying to fuck your maid, and mutilating yourself and others. So is every other song on the god damn record. | |
| Pixies – Cactus Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
OK, i really think this song is about a guy who went crazy and murdered his wife/girlfriend and got sent to jail for it. Also, I really like the lyric "And a letter in your writing doesn't mean you're not dead." Reminds me of the Sherlock Holmes story, The Man With The Twisted Lip. |

it's "a passing phase of quiet indignation" not silent indigestion. |

| Animal Collective – Lion in a Coma Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| also, No More Runnin is about the calm that comes after said release, which is why it's such a good follow-up to this one. | |
| Animal Collective – Lion in a Coma Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| it's definitely about having a lot of feelings, ideas, aggressions, thoughts stuck inside yourself and just wanting to let loose. "light a leaf" describes one way to let your lion our of its coma (drugs), it talks about music (is there no reason it can be the way it was musically, my three best friends so casually just letting go so joyfully) and sex (this wilderness needs to get out of my clothes and get into my bedroom) as other ways of letting loose and releasing whatever pent-up emotions you may have. | |
| Animal Collective – Water Curses Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
i want to be like water and slip into your throat and make you feel alive and good Maybe I'm just a perv, but this struck me right away as a sexual reference. this song is genius. |

| Animal Collective – For Reverend Green Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| i truly believe that this is just one of those songs for everyone to take their own meaning out of. who cares what avey was thinking when he wrote it? it can be about vegetarianism, pedophilia, greed/money, smoking weed, being in animal collective, reflecting on life, new york, whatever. Personally i think it's a love song, fight me. | |
| Animal Collective – Daffy Duck Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
this song's definitely from a father to a son. He mentions a lot of childhood fantasies and such (rubber hands, silly friends, laughing ducks, volcano boots)... he questions the nature of his son's growing up and expresses his difficulty in coping. The last two stanzas pretty much sum up the father's sadness at his son growing into a teenager. He wishes his son would stay youthful and innocent (what you need's a happy farm with happy goats and sheep) He also wishes that he could make it happen (what i need's a happy arm to swing you around) All in all it's a pretty damn touching song. It really helped me realize the way my dad's been feeling about me the past couple years (as corny as that sounds) the chorus part (there we go changing again) really puts the song into perspective as well. |
