| I Set My Friends On Fire – Reese's Pieces, I Don't Know Who John Cleese Is? Lyrics | 16 years ago |

I agree with everything that you're saying, but I have a few things to contribute. When he ties her to the chair, and she's "force to stare," I believe that he's forcing her to watch what he's taped. The whole song is themed around what he's video taped, and he says "what's hiding in your wardrobe isn't a shopping spree." I think he's referring to the video camera he hid in her closet. In the end of the song, he's obviously talking about how he kills himself. "He sets himself on fire" (and a good reference to the band's name as well.) And when he says "Stop, rewind, watch them die," I believe it could imply either a third person audience, or even himself, flashing back to before he kills himself, because during his suicide. There are female screams in the background. I believe it's him killing her after he forces her to watch his recordings of her and the other guy together. So maybe it's a flashback to the hours before he kills himself and he's watching them die over and over again on the themed video camera. |
