This is a straightforward break-up song. The stuff about putting up defences etc. are comments about the ex-lover's behaviour. |

I agree with pretty much all the comments here–it's a beautiful song but Nicky Wire's voice is awful. I also read it as a suicide note; it would be interesting to see the full prose version, but the lyrics that made it to the album are unambiguously suicidal. |

Son of a Gun isn't on Unplugged. Also, Kurt was pretty vocal about his love of The Vaselines; I think most people who have heard the Nirvana version know they didn't write it. I agree with Whiskeyclonehotel, I think it's about sex. |

I have a couple of points: 1) Why am I the first person to comment on this, when it's one of the best songs ever recorded. 2) I think I get the meaning of almost every word in the song, about a mixed up girl with a bad reputation. But why the hell is she 'painting lines'? |
