| Silversun Pickups – It's Nice to Know You Work Alone Lyrics
| 14 years ago
|
dunamis, saying a band isn't real because they don't use filters is like saying a girl is less 'real' because she uses makeup. Some horrible bands/singers use it, but some awesome ones do too. It's all about perfecting your art.
That all being said, yeah, they're definitely just switching off.

| Gym Class Heroes – Cookie Jar (feat. The-Dream) Lyrics

The term 'Oreo' usually refers to a black girl who is thought to be 'acting white'. Although it's been years later, I'm still side-eyeing the crap out of that line, but it's was probably difficult to reference black girls and still have the words work. |

| Gorillaz – Superfast Jellyfish Lyrics

A)The "wrappers of many bite size" line also seems to be referring to the music industry- specifically what makes a pass for hiphop these days. I also somehow doubt that the plastic doughnut line was actually referring to plastic donuts. It just seems. . . Uninspired.
B)I hate to be Google search, but are you sure you didn't mean 'invented'? Indented is, well. . . |

| Gorillaz – Stop The Dams Lyrics
| 14 years ago
|
While I agree with the idea that the song is about dams in reference to the environment. I think it also (To take the lyrics at a surface level.) talks about the walls people build up and how we, as a society, tend to bottle up our emotions and destroy ourselves. Hence, "When you're keeping everything inside you
It can only hurt you"
The "We're Aluminum" line seems to say that if we go on bottling up our emotions/stop expressing ourselves, we'll end up becoming robots- aluminum. |

I'd agree with you- on the surface. Most Gorillaz songs seem to have a literal and metaphorical meaning and I think Superfast Jellyfish is the same. On the surface it seems to be talking about the fast food industry, but keep looking at it and it becomes one big metaphor for the music industry- people like their music like their fast food- bland and in an instant. |

I always interpreted the line 'concrete coloured buildings all grow stale' as meaning that an actual relationship (In the context of the song.) would be boring. |
