"Red, gold and green" ??? The colours of the Ethiopian flag. Also the colours of rastafarianism and reggae. George loves reggae. Look at the colours on the video and the Caribbean characters in it |

It's about El Nino. Developing in the Gulf Of Mexico (born in a manger), growing in strength and then wreaking havoc to world weather
Born in a manger.
You're getting stranger everyday.
Uncertain chancer.
Your sending everything astray.
Your certain danger.
Your a monsoon and fire all in one.
Got me on the run. |

Gruff commented on this song at a SFA gig. He said it was about being unemployed e.g. sitting around "gathering moss". I could identify with that once! |

ZimbobDan, I am upset with Donald Roeser. He is "upset" that people think that the song might be about suicide. What does the silly bollocks mean then if it isn't about suicide ? |

Probably their worst song (and there are many of those). What a whiney chorus. I cannot stand Caleb Followill's voice |

Great song about adolescence. One of the better power pop songs of all time. I love the crunching Chilton guitar work here as well |

This is one of the more dated songs on #1 Record yet it is a good one. It is the most different song of the lot. I also love Chris Bell's "My Life Is Right" |

They are trying to sound like Zeppelin on this number. It's heavy on the religious imagery. They even called the album Second Coming ! |

| Brendan Benson – Tea Lyrics

To me this song is not as simple and innocent as it first seems. 'Tea' is a slang expression for herbal cannabis as well. Song could be innocent or it could be the other way. That's the beauty of a songwriter of Benson's talent.. |
