@LehighAlan i think you're right about the threesome, its pretty obvious with the lines "Who said three is a crowd? We better get it on the go...We've gotta make it rain somehow She told me too And show me what to do She knows how, to make it loud" and then all the other sexual references throughout the song. but as much as it is a song that tells a cool story, its a rhcp song, so it obviously does relate abstractly to something else, which would make some sense to be their carreer as a band. but the song could just be meant to dickslap anybody who immediately tries to find profound meaning in the song, simply because it is chili peppers song. im not saying there isn't any sort of metaphorical deeper meaning, but i really like the idea of the song simply being a sex story, and still being a great sounding song. |

this song is just about not letting all the bullshit that people talk about getting them down like poverty, drugs, government, whatever is oppressing, and overcoming it without changing yourself in the process, basically having the most possible swag ever |

absolutely, i think that the first line "here we go again" is like, we've tried it before, it hasnt really worked out, but we keep getting pushed together by fate or whatever. lets just do it sort of thing |

i think you have the best interpretation so far, i dont think its about an institution, the white coats and clever minds is the only line that would confirm that theory, but what you say about politicians and "higher class" possibly conservative minds and ideas repressing the message that he has been trying to put out is what i think this band is more about. what you said about getting off as climax is close to it, its saying that when he says what he needs to, that nobody wins/gets what they are looking for, but he can share his ideas in a way that people will listen, this is good for him in a sense b/c he has done what he wants to, but it wont turn out well in the end b/c nobody gets off. "a longer sentence..." yes he does just reiterate, but he says that if he tried getting his message out in some other way, a more sophisticated/official way, then that would not change anything. "it's hard to..." yeah, he is saying that although they may say that they are good/benevolent but he can see that they are not and he refuses to compromise now that he knows their intentions. "its just a common view..." saying that they have the popular opinion, so there is no point in trying to convince them that they are wrong, even if they were shown to be wrong and they believed it, they would not make sweeping changes like the speaker wants, because they have convinced the public that their idea is correct, they will not be swayed if the antagonist starts preaching the same as the speaker, he will just be outcast.
so yeah i think the whole institution thing is a little far-fetched |

black is considered to be the absense of color and light, he is saying that he no longer feels any emotion other than feelings about his lost love. she is on his mind, he cant think about anything else, nor does he have any idea what to do w/ his life that wouldnt revolve around her.

i think this song is about a relationship, but i don't think its one that's going nowhere. i believe that this song is about a guy who isn't good enough for the girl he's dating and they are both aware of it. she is only with him still because she doesn't want to be alone. for whatever reason he is not good enough for her, he is trying to fix this problem, but they are getting into an argument that he is procrastinating doing whatever it is that he needs to do.
idk, just my interpretation i could also agree with other interpretations on this page, but this just seems to me to fit better |
