| Say Anything – Mara and Me Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I was at that show too pcomet, so great... Max said this song is about the biggest gang in America. That's MS-13, an El-Salvadorian (I think?) gang. The MS stands for Mara Salvatrucha, hence the name of the song. I didn't think twice about the lyrics until I heard him say this at the concert, but it makes a little sense now. "Babies with guns beheading their friends in shopping malls around the world" could refer to MS-13 initiation rituals. They're notorious around DC for targeting and killing people in Walmart, Target, etc. parking lots on initiation nights. Kind of a bummer but hope this helps... |
