Primus – Jilly's On Smack Lyrics
| 12 years ago
|
I saw this song live way before it came out, In Fayetteville, AR in May 2011. As soon As Ler started playin that riff, I was in love with the song! Then I got to know what it was about and I loved it even more.. Way to go Primus! I also heard in an interview that this song is actually about someone that Les and his friends once knew but she got on Herion and faded out of their lives.. |

Primus – Hello Skinny/Constantinople Lyrics
| 12 years ago
|
Cheap heroin is made in a bathtub and called 'bathtub heroin". This song was released in 1978, so it had to be about a well-known drug at the time, which crystal meth wasn't. Also, it was hard to get syringes then, so heroin addicts made their own with eye droppers. Heroin addicts were often skinny, and they were known for selling all their possessions to get more money to get high. |

Primus – Hellbound 17 1/2 (Theme From) Lyrics

While tripping on mushrooms at a Primus show in 1996 in Kansas City, I had a revelation of what this song may be about.. We have so many questions about life where we came from .. what it's all about and you realize how small you really are in relation to everything else.. so why worry about silly things when you can enjoy the good things and just be you "Is that a tuna melt that I smell? C'mon!" Just my little take on it.. |

Primus – Golden Boy Lyrics

The Golden Boy is definitley a hypocrite.. He's bad to the bone.. He ws stealing from the liquor store by drinking to "pad his pay" then he shoots a kid for stealing a 40.. After he did his time he still had no remorese.. He truly is a dumb , hpyocritical, mean, bad man.. Les is making fun of him and sarcastically calling him "Golden Boy" ? ? ? Just what I've alway gotten from the song. |

Primus – Green Ranger Lyrics

I completely agree with you on this. Perfect explanation. I did not know what he may have meant about Nevada City Fire but I believe you are correct on this as well. I would love to know why he calls it The Green Ranger but maybe it will come out in an interview or during a live show or something ;-) |
