This song reminds me a lot of Brave New World actually. To me this song is saying that technology has made our existence too simple and comfortable --and too difficult to really feel, and emote the way humans should. The main character wants to feel and go through the motions of sending a letter, though its less convenient than other forms of communication, because it's more personal and feels that he achieves a deeper human connection this way. |

| Margot & the Nuclear So and So's – The Shivers (I've Got 'Em) Lyrics

I clearly hear: "Peel off your clothes," in the 2nd stanza, "I was the loneliest captive of your silhouette," as well as well as "I am bugging, so pass me the slug," in the fourth stanza.
I really can't figure out what the meaning of this song is. Several of M & tNSS's songs have the some themes of violence and sex, like Real Naked Girls and Hello Vagina. I think this might mean the line between sex and violence/love and hate is very thin. I also get the feeling it's about obsession, and how you grow to hate, who you love, because you can never have them. The lyrics seem to call for a more extreme interpretation than that, however. |

I love the bejesus out of this song, just because of the vibrant and lush sound to it. However, I'm definitely having a lot of difficulty understanding what exactly this song is about.
From what I can tell it seems that this song is about a sort of destructive or forbidden relationship. It seems like the person in the song is saying that he's really sort of enraptured by this woman who he knows will be, well, destructive. Anyone else have a better idea what this song is about? |
