| This Bike Is a Pipe Bomb – jack johnson Lyrics | 15 years ago |

Great song, I agree. It's obviously about Jack Johnson, a black boxer who managed to defeat the (white) Heavyweight champion. Look up Jack Johnson on Wikipedia if you don't understand the lyrics. I do have one question, though. At the beginning of the song, it calls Jack Johnson a hero, which almost the rest of the song confirms. However, the end of the song says "who said heroes had to be role models anyway?" Jack Johnson had several flaws, but as none of them are mentioned in the song, I am hesitant to say that is the reason for that line. Does anyone have any ideas? |
