This is about dropping one's preconceptions and inhibitions... e.g. "Hot dog, my razor broke" == gonna grow a beard The last verse is pretty Freudian. |

| The Doors – Horse Latitudes Lyrics | 16 years ago |

This was written when Morrison was in high school. He likens young adolescents' sexual frustrations to being becalmed in an ocean while not having enough drinkable water. Many have said the song is about losing one's virginity, but I think the imagery of jettisoning live cargo is more likely about masturbation. The loss of virginity comes in the next cut -- Pairing this song with Moonlight Drive was brilliant. The water metaphor is continued, and our thirst-wracked fellow isn't just going to take a drink, he's going to drown himself. |
