@[canadianJAY:53746] You're a complete liar. Gord Downie was never in the military and was never in Somalia. Man, anyone can easily fact-check you. Why post complete BS? |

@[MartinH4:53745] No. That's not what the song is about. Gord Downie never said it was about Clifford Olson. You have completely made this up. One question: why? |

@[fudgy:48588] It's not right. It's Fear in the Gun sights. "ear (or fear) in the down sex" is just gibberish, which The Clash didn't write |

| @[cornersoul:48587] Yeah, the lyric is Fear in the Gun Sights, which makes total sense. Listen to the song, and don't believe people who try to sell you gibberish like 'fear in the down sex', as Strummer and the Clash wrote intelligent lyrics that made sense. | |

@[Chinup:48586] The lyrics you wrote are incorrect. "Ear in the down sex" is gibberish. These lyrics correctly write the lyric for that part as "Fear in the gun sights", which makes complete sense. Also, your "gotta launch long way" is again correctly written here as Gotta march a long way". Man, listen to a song before you try to 'correct' someone's lyrics. And maybe do some basic research. |

Okay, I know this forum has become a place where everyone gets to tell us what he or she "knows" the lyrics are about, with no supporting evidence at all, but the comments on this song are surreal!! To settle the issue, here is an excerpt from documented sources, including a direct quote from songwriter Richard Patrick: "When I wrote the chorus to "Take a Picture" [...] it was just after my friend was like, "Do you remember anything you did last night?" And I was like, "What are you talking about?" She said, "My God, you were throwing beer bottles out of a cab window at a cop car. Do you remember that?" And I said, "Good lord, could you take my picture, 'cuz I won't remember." And that line just kinda stuck. Weeks later, I had another drunken experience – being on a plane and being blacked out and not feeling good and taking my shirt off, half in and out of consciousness – and I'm in the back of a paddy wagon. I'm thinking, "Oh my God, what is my dad gonna think of this shit?" Y'know, "Dad, what do you think about your son now?" So, the song is this amazing thing for me to look back on now."[4] Patrick's father was offended by this line, but Patrick explained to his father that each time he sings the line it has a different meaning because Patrick changes the tone in which he delivers the line each time it's sung.[5] The song was intended as a tribute to the Was (Not Was) song "Dad, I'm in Jail", from their album What Up, Dog?.[6] Good enough for all you fabulists out there? |

@[b4model:47121] Hilarious comment! Given that in interviews he has said that the line "Hey, Dad, what do you think about your son now?" was in way a slag on his father, and has nothing to do with any disapproval by his father of his career, the only conclusion I can draw is that you are a classic troll who makes up 'facts' to support his own father issues! Man, don't make stuff up! You'll get called on it every time, and be exposed as the fake you are! |

The lyrics have a mistake. It's "You must remember me, old man", not "You must remember the old man" |
