well, it seems like half of the pixies's songs are in some part, so it's definitely a possibility. |

| The Breeders – Cannonball Lyrics

this one?
Kim: I've just never connected music with books. Wait, that's not entirely true. "Cannonball" was inspired by the writings of the Marquis de Sade.
Q: What? "I'll be the bong in your reggae song" was inspired by de Sade?
Kim: Well, not that line specifically. But the message of the song as a whole was making fun of de Sade and his libertarian views that if he was better off than someone, then they were just fodder for him. Playthings. It was saying,"Come on, life's not a contest."
Q: So you're pretty much anti-de Sade.
Kim: Well, I don't know. Later on I found out he used to suck the snot out of people's noses, and I thought that pretty much ruled. |

it was released on a split single with the jesus lizard. the clicks in the beginning are kurt flicking his lighter into the microphone (don't ask me why). |

the first verse is just a little story thingy. the second verse is a little more vague, maybe it's from the crazy sister's point of view? great song |

one of my favorite SY songs. it's too good to be a b-side...
it seems like it's a pretty straightforward love song. it's message seems to be 'seize the day, you never know what will come tomorrow'. |
