| The Black Keys – Ten Cent Pistol Lyrics | 11 years ago |
| It's very obvious the song is about revenge. The title, though, is what's up for interpretation. I don't think they were directly referencing a "ten cent pistol," as in the poison or laced drugs some of you mentioned. I think it was more of a thing that they used to indirectly say that she slyly got her revenge, as someone would slyly lace drugs or slip poison into a beverage. Maybe she spread a rumor or something terrible enough for them to "never be the same?" Maybe the rumor was bad enough to make people look at them differently, and not associate with them? I'm not exactly sure, but I honestly don't think drugs or poison were actually involved in this haha. | |
