| Primus – Over The Falls Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| i believe this song is about les starting his band, the first part of the first verse is obviously referring to someone being nervous, perhaps his first big show? and then "the quantity and quality of women, they lied" people always say that rockstars always have tons of(quantity) hot(quality) girls all over them, and les is seeming to not notice this in his career. then the chorus, "he stood by and waited like the others before for his turn to go over the falls" the falls being a hit or miss thing, could be a representation of fame, so he could be saying, he waited for his shot at fame, like so many other people in the music business industry. then the second verse his first attempt at fame was a flop, so he tried again and went for a degree at burklee, but before he could finish his studies, he was called to try again at fame. perhaps the lightning could be inspiration, since light is sometimes used to symbolize new ideas and such, and the vessel, going with the bass idea, would be his form of expression. | |
