| Banner Pilot – Baltimore Knot Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I think this comes from The Wire (TV show) where Mcnulty mentions the Baltimore Knot when he's working in the maritime fleet. IT encapsulates what the show is about, but BP have used it to explain a troubled and confused life. The lyrics resonate with both Mcnulty and Bunk's late night drinking down by the rail yards (Down by tracks, outside the county line/ Sit on our hoods and stare up at the sky for signs); the Corner boys, who are drug slingers, are referred to ("That corner's tough; sometimes you play the game, sometimes the game you play plays you".); how frustrating the petty-politics of Baltimore' police is ("It's all broken, It's all corrupt./ This Baltimore knot's got me all tied up"); and how the gangs mess up the street signs to confuse cops (It's hard to navigate streets when signs are pointing in new ways). Of course, the song is allegorical and refers to our own personal dilemmas. Excellent song nonetheless |
