In the first verse it seems a woman who has dumped this man "You say you had enough ", is coming back to maybe give it a second chance possibly. It's unclear why these two have spilt up, but they have, and instead of turning her down, he just let's her back in. Based of the chorus, it appears his reasoning is that of lust, because why would focus on what one is wearing, and rather who the person is. Despite her deplorable actions, he just wants her too much. I think the second verse goes over the things she used to do, perhaps a insight as to why they might have split up. In the first line of the second verse, this implies that she has some sort of control over his finances, and in the second line, it describes how she brings her friends uninvited. The last two lines of the second verse are a mystery to me, as for what they could be talking about. In the third verse it seems he is in joy, given he is back with this woman, however it gives the impression that she has him manipulated, making him just a fool for her stockings. |

| The Doors – Land Ho! Lyrics | 1 year ago |
| Personally I think it is about a grandson continuing his grandfather's legacy. After hearing stories of his grandfather sailing, he wants to continue his legacy so he himself becomes a sailor. I would imagine he is deprived of alcohol, that is why he mentions the dollar bill. After that, the song becomes sort of hard to understand for me. Saying he is going to skin a little girl alive, is rather disturbing, and kind of a contrast from the rest of the song. Everything else in the song seems kind of wholesome, continuing his father's legacy, marrying someone, but that is kind of creepy. I am not sure why he collarets skinning a girl alive, and marrying someone with numbers either. | |

In the first verse(and rest of the song), the narrator is talking about he has left the island of Chandeleur(not chandelier, as that doesn't make sense, and Chandeleur is in the gulf of Mexico, which is in a similar region to Texas) and working some temporary job make sure he has money(Second verse) "I got a job as a public relations man Passing out handbills on Austin Street Merely an effort to improve my financial situation" This man is trying to catch or tame the thunderbird. What does he mean when he says thunderbird? Well in Texas, there was a myth about a giant bird, which could control the weather and would rip it pray from limb to limb with its massive talons. It also would make thunderstorms when hunted(https://kisselpaso.com/the-legend-unique-formation-of-el-pasos-thunderbird-mountain/#:~:text=Legend%20has%20it%20that%20the,from%20its%20beak%20or%20eyes.) The narrator has returned to whatever town this interaction takes place in, in order to continue his quest to catch the bird(It might have caused a death or injured someone he knows, or himself. Also the fact that he has a bad financial situation, means it he kills it he may get a reward) ,or tame it(He might want to have the power of controlling the weather.) |
