| Kings of Leon – Supersoaker Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| Obviously at the time of this posting this is the only confirmed song from MB, but the lyrics in this song seem perfect in my opinion for KOL's and Caleb's comeback. This is very much a song about dealing with the cynicism and trying to please everyone, isolating yourself and abandoning your roots in the process. The "Super Soaker" represents fighting back, and the "red, white, and blue" is likely and optimistically symbolic of the band's return to being themselves without the obligation to apologize or care about what anybody says; because they're all liars at their core with hidden agendas (see "Act like you mean it" and "I don't believe it"). The "sentimental girls" line is still unclear to me but "miss don't walk away", or mister walk away" seem like a serious contemplative struggle to just quit and leave everything behind. If you're not familiar with what caused their hiatus this analysis may make less sense, but its certainly a coming of age for a band that has been polarized and scorned for what the masses believe was reinventing themselves to gain popularity instead of maintaining their unique sound and persona that achieved their initial following. | |
