| James Taylor – Jelly Man Kelly Lyrics | 4 years ago |
|
Jelly man Kelly is like our song writer a heroin addict. He loves jelly (heroin) but most of all he loves his jelly on toast (chasing the dragon on tinfoil). Jenny mahony is the firemans daughter (the dealers) she loves to boil hot water (for injecting). Jelly man Kelly wants to know if he can come round to score. La la poppa Yodeleho etc is when she says her dad is holding and he's celebratory. Maybe some day we can have tea with him |

| @[budHex:23622] the line is he's on, he's on, he's on it, he's on, he's on, he's on it.. A ref to the fact he is 'on heroin'.. | |
| Blur – Beetlebum Lyrics | 8 years ago |
| This is a song completely about heroin use/abuse.. The beetle reference is the heroin powder that liquifies on a strip of tin foil, inhaled thru a tinfoil tube (toot) which is black and hard when at rest resembling a beetle.the bum ref is a lazy, do nothing person.. When he sings of she's a gun.. It's about the Russian roulette that it's both powerful and dangerous.. Get nothing done.. Is what eventually happens when u become a addict. She makes u come is the ref to heroin.. All male users ref to heroin in the female and when u become a addict heroin replaces your want or need for sex.. Makes u come is not literal, it's symbolic of the fact it had become his sex now.. Numb is a reference to emotionally numb which u become after long use..she'll suck your thumb is a ref to the calming ability of the drug. Nothing is wrong is a ref to the oblivion u feel in that nothing fazes you any longer and just rides by over ur head.i just slip away and Iam gone is a ref to the 'gouch' or 'nod' which accompany immediate use where user is placed in a hypnogocic state between sleep and wakefulness, alert in ur surroundings but asleep within urself.. If someone talks to u or u must move u can immediately get up or become vivid before once again slipping back into a serene state of relaxation.. To the outside observer the user appears asleep. | |
