| Dinosaur Jr. – Goin' Home Lyrics | 10 years ago |
| Why must every Dinosaur Jr. lyric have an Uma comment. J has repeatedly said that he barely knew her in school. She was a few years behind him. Every Uma comment gets a down vote from me. | |

| The Rolling Stones – Far Away Eyes Lyrics | 11 years ago |
|
In a 1978 interview with Rolling Stone magazine, Jagger said, "You know, when you drive through Bakersfield on a Sunday morning or Sunday evening - I did that about six months ago - all the country music radio stations start broadcasting black gospel services live from L.A. And that's what the song refers to. But the song's really about driving alone, listening to the radio."On influences, Jagger stated "I wouldn't say this song was influenced specifically by Gram (Parsons). That idea of country music played slightly tongue-in-cheek - Gram had that in 'Drugstore Truck Drivin' Man', and we have that sardonic quality, too." Asked by the interviewer if the girl in the song was a real one, Jagger replied, "Yeah, she's real, she's a real girl." Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Far_Away_Eyes |

From Rolling Stones: Evan Dando: "It's a serious attempt to get the word 'gay' back to meaning 'happy,'" he maintained in NME. "It's really just about my friend's house, a big happy house on the hill in Austin." source: http://www.rollingstone.com/music/song-stories/big-gay-heart-the-lemonheads |

| Toots And The Maytals – Pressure Drop Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| I don't think it is angst. It is condemnation. He isn't sing about himself. He is saying, literally, that the "pressure gonna drop on you". He is saying that when you do wrong or live wrong there are consequences. | |
| Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young – Pre-Road Downs Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| A great tune about the being bummed about heading out on tour and leaving your lady behind. Pretty self explanatory lyrics, great rhythm and tempo. All in all a great song. | |
| Steely Dan – Any Major Dude Will Tell You Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| Perfect! | |
| The Who – Don't Let Go The Coat Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| I'm not sure why the lyrics are double up here, but they are. Strangely, the chorus is not. There should be 4 repetitions of Don't let go the coat and the rest should just be single. | |
| Warren Zevon – Dirty Life And Times Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| Agreed! | |
| Butthole Surfers – Ulcer Breakout Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
Yeah - these lyrics are all messed up. It should be: Ever fall in love with a line? Ever fall in love with a line? Ever felt a gun for the trigger? Ever go so fast, you could die? Got to be at least 500 inches! Cubic inches, on a certified quarter mile run! Ever had the feeling of pleasure? Ever felt your arse get shoved so far into the trunk, you needed help up from above? Got to be at least 500 inches! Cubic inches, on a certified quarter mile run! Ever fall in love with a Chevy? Ever fall in love with a Ford? Ever felt the torque of a Hemi? Ever seen the face of the Lord? Got to be at least 500 inches! Cubic inches, on a certified quarter mile run! Ever fall in love with a line? Ever fall in love with a line? Ever felt a gun for the trigger? Ever go so fast, you could die? Got to be at least 500 inches! Cubic inches, on a certified quarter mile run! |
