| The Stranglers – Outside Tokyo Lyrics

In the late seventies digital watches became available. Numbers on wrists counting, tick tick, as if they were a representation of time itself rather than a little plastic machine. Time is abstract, relative and arguably not real, a little Japanese watch - they were technology kings at the time - doesn't keep time, and if they should ever sell out of them time would continue regardless. |

| Ween – What Deaner Was Talkin' About Lyrics
| 13 years ago

It's an incredibly beautiful song, and I figure it's a drug song, and it's about smack or some other opiate addiction. Sitting and lazing the day away, doing nothing but dreaming, seeing the practical world just outside you. Maybe Deaner was saying, "Come back to the real world Gene". The real world might include many drugs that were not heavy downers, but then at least you'd get off your arse. |
