| Jean Grae – Not Like Me (album version) Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
These are the actual lyrics: $1 Not $2 tips at open bar Keep it that way There's nothing wrong with partying Get the drinks going Oh Who's that? Is that your girl? You with her She look like everybody else in here [Chorus :] C'mon They're not like me (That's a shame) Baby bet you know they're not like me And everywhere you go it's not easy Just to come across a girl like Jean Oh no C'mon it's not likely And everywhere you go they're not like me (So what's up) And baby bet you know it's not easy (Uh huh) Just to come across a girl like Jean oh no (Got a light y'all?) Part of my composure Saw ya Had to approach ya, move closer Confidence or the courtesy of the mimosas Framed perfect Like a picture with the sharpest image From the lips of a cherub cherry red Henny breast Let me guess Queens, is ya? See Jean can read by the lean And the tilt of the cap in your drink, I'll refill that I need some good conversation, love These hood rats be making up the game Plus they ain't even fully developed Insane See if we could start a challenge And balance most delicate matters Involving plans Including sitting in carriages Wait Too far Maybe we could shoot a little hoop Or just chill on my stoop I don't like a lot of hoopla Me and you sedude deuces and spike juices and stove some backwards roll backwards And keep it that good So write your name Oldschool Pen on the back Now what's a good time? Tomorrow? I don't stall Holla back [Chorus :] You see I walk up different on 'em Talk slang often Bought dinner on Dutch While most women do the wallet clutch Never ask the what question Make jokes interestin' Wear more clothes and let they eyes do the undressin' A little sarcasm, bar savage, tar addict Argue about reasonable doubt and Illmatic Car traffic eyin' We can walk in summer laughing Cry when they giggle Split sides and curse The magic that's in between us boy Jean a fiend for the love-feeling We crush dream and after lush green And a sun shinin' and enough beach for a lifetime Or maybe that's just mine Poppin in at hathaway Wandering gay and rewind Play a little chess strip see but nothing I read a lot Beam you a little sixteen or something I cook well sip on drinks and just chill A malt liquor and MOP Tell me what you feel [Chorus :] See we could be for life even For nights freed and heavy and steaming From polite greetin's to late at night face smashin Taste passion and race plays baggage my faith asking to place faith back in and maybe marriage I hate slackers Jean love to chill and lay out Sometimes stay out We'll find an open bar I'm not impressed by payouts So star, display out your cards We can splay out on the top of cars And pick the consolations While playing the Best of the Bards y'all Making me nod agreein Patience is all I'm needing Face it, I'm not your average girl Or close to it even Most original Entranced by your physical plans I've got a lot But we could chill It's all I ask (it down) |

Those lyrics are wrong. These are the actual lyrics... $1 Not $2 tips at open bar Keep it that way There's nothing wrong with partying Get the drinks going Who's that? Is that your girl?

| She Wants Revenge – Someone Must Get Hurt Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
These lyrics are all wrong... It sounds sort of like a relationship that has gotten dull or repetitive. She may want a purely sexual relationship, no strings attached. The chorus in my head plays out where I can imagine an ambulance up the road & He stares through her with hurt in his heart & an empty look in his eyes She's paining & he'd love to take her pain away... But she doesn't care And she doesn't want him. & Over & over again she hurts him But as soon as she comes crying to him He breaks and returns to her For a short while they are good & happy But it all comes crumbling down again It's like a broken & he's sick of it At the end he finally lets go, though it hurts him to leave. He claims he wont be the one to be hurt, but it's BS. |

| Concrete Blonde – Bloodletting (The Vampire Song) Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
The novel Interview with a Vampire was written in 1976 so it was around before the song came out, which was already established in a post by instigator. Debora is right on Johnette admitting it was inspired by the author. I've also heard it was about a friend who contracted HIV, although I don't know how true this is. But the lyrics would fit. "You were a vampire and baby I'm the walking dead" and someone with HIV would definitely have a lot to think about. |

| Nirvana – Scoff Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
I have no clue what it's truly about, and I'm not saying it is this, but I always think sexual abuse. Maybe I'm just really sick like that. "In your room, I'm not older" makes it sound like the man is much older than the girl he is molesting. He drinks to get rid of the pain, but it isn't enough, so he takes it out on the young girl whenever he's drinking. "In my face, it's not over" this sexual abuse occurs on a regular basis. "In your eyes, I'm not worth it" the disgust and broken trust by the victim. However it can be about a lot of things. A broken heart, the way people may have scoffed at Kurt, rather than encouraging him. But when I hear it, I think of abuse. |

| Nirvana – Dumb Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
My own interpretation of this song by such a beautiful song writer, R.I.P. Kurt. I believe it's about feeling different and outcasted from society, from what most people view as normal. He isn't that, but tries to fit in anyway. They could be happy without the drugs while he does them to keep him happy. The sun is gone, he is surrounded in a world of pain, yet there is still some sort of light in the darkness. He questions whether or not he's dumb or simply happy, because he can feel slightly good when living in such pain. His heart is broke, it doesn't have to be about love, but maybe it is. "I has some glue, help me inhale". It sounds like he's sniffing glue to get high, though by saying this I'll probably get harassed by hardcore Kurt fans. However it could be any drug you inhale. He is using the drugs to find his happy place. Now, this pat I never put much thought in while drifting away to this song Skin the sun Fall asleep Wish away The soul is cheap Lesson learned Wish me luck Soothe the burn Wake me up Maybe it's about dreaming and wishing and realizing how cheap the soul is. He doesn't want to dwell on it, so "wake me up" and return to more drug induced fun. Overall I think it's a positive song with hints of darkness. I adore it because it's an easier one of his to interpret, and having depression and falling into drugs, I can relate to it so much. Now I see that floppy was hating on NoseDragon due to his interpretation. This is what poetry is about, how you yourself interprets it and why you can relate to it. Poetry is a statement, and you take on your own meaning of it. Also, the "I have a light part" I seen him ragging on, because NoseDragon mentioned marijuana. You do heat the spoon to melt the heroin, I suppose. Since heroin was his drug of choice. So it's not that ridiculous. |
