| Kings of Leon – Ragoo Lyrics

This song has nothing to do with his father! 'Round here, your grandpa is usually your Papa. Pronounced "pawpaw," just like in the song. These guys aren't even close to being old enough to have a Civil War-era dad. In fact, he's probably talking about his great-grandfather, or even further back. But "great-great grandfather" wouldn't have sounded very good lyrically, would it? |

Not even touching the religion/addiction/relationship debate; clearly Mumford & Sons have very complex songs with many meanings and literary references, so everybody might be right. Just wanted to say the last verse of this song kicks SO MUCH ASS!! |

According to fairy lore, people have occasionally stumbled into a forest that they didn't know existed and wandered lost until morning. They usually find themselves safe at their own front door when the wood disappears at dawn, and they never find it again. |

Well...the "you look so beautiful it hurts me slightly" line is ACTUALLY from the 1st episode of the TV show "My So Called Life." It came on MTV in the 90s, back when they still played music. Anybody else remember this? |

How perfect would this song be for a wedding?! And why couldn't it have existed when I got married? |

I used to sing this to my son every night when he was a baby. My older son would creep in and sit at my feet to listen...Think I'll just go play this song again. |

Okay, yes, it's a good song and all, but it kind of pisses me off that this song is the one song that most people know by Toad. It isn't even close to being their best! |

Are you sure it's a he? Look at the pearly little hand line a little closer. Among other things. Totally on the money about the nature of their relationship, though. |

No, she says it's from an old Chinese(I think) custom of hanging a dead dog around the neck of an adulteress. The dog in the song is both the decaying animal she's saddled with (here's hoping it's a metaphor) and the jerk she's been sleeping with. |

When my cousin's little girl ate an extra big lunch, she would say it was because the Jesus in her heart was hungry. So the "breathe for two" thing could be either that or a pregnancy.It's nicer to think she found religion. |

I thought it was about sexual abuse from the father's point of view. ("I'm the seed..."etc.) Really creepy. Kinda hope I'm wrong. |
