| Harry Belafonte – Mama Look a Boo-Boo Lyrics | 6 years ago |
| This song is about the dynamic between kids and parents, and the true reasons behind their acting up. From the father's initial point of view, the kids are acting up solely because they think it's funny to watch their parents lose it, but when it comes down to it, their behavior stems from their love for their father, and is actually more of an attempt to get his attention. | |

I'd say the final verse is touching on the 80s crack epidemic and TV parenting. Don't just sit there while your community falls apart Don't sit your kids in front of the TV, and expect Mr. Wizard to raise them Stay alive to be a role model, and raise your kids so you can relate to them and they can relate to the world. |

| Tom Waits – Straight to the Top Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| I'd be shocked if this song wasn't about getting high ("if you know me, you know what I mean"). Especially being from the album, "Frank's Wild Years"; I'd say it kind of fits with the whole theme. | |
| Tom Waits – Alice Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
"How did the razor find my throat?" - At first I assumed that this meant a razor cutting a throat, but I've been thinking it could be referring to shaving; as in somehow finding motivation to continuine performing mundane tasks like shaving even though he's going through a deep state of depression. Any thoughts? |

I think this song has more to do w/ loving someone so much that they'd go through anything to be w/ them. The lines: i won't deny the pain i won't deny the change show what the person would go through to be w/ the person they love.. |

| Alice in Chains – Down In A Hole Lyrics | 23 years ago |
|
I think part of this song deals with the heroin addiction he struggled with. Look at me now a man Who won't let himself be these lines sort of indicate this, talking about how he's stuck in a hole, and won't let himself recover |
