Have you ever looked at someone you loved and realized that they are way more fucked up, and angry, and hurt than you ever would be and there was no way to fix it? I think it feels a lot like this song. |

| The Mountain Goats – In Corolla Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
|
I don't think this is a suicide- it seems more of a "So, I wanted to kill myself but I couldn't even do *that*" sort of a thing. Cathartic and melodramatic, maybe, but it could help him move on. |

Fairly obviously this is about the death of a father, though I suspect from the disjointed and so specific imagery that it is fairly autobiographical. |

Barnaby is the name of a protagonist of a short story by Melville. I found it dreadful and do not recall it at all but it is a place to hunt for meaning, if one is so inclined. |

Oh, lawnwrangler, you are SO COOL that you heard about a band before someone else!
Sarcasm aside, I think Poor_American is correct, or it is about the insecurities of love... what if someone better is out there? |

I think this song is about someone who has a lot of sex, but doesn't drink or smoke. It is being sly and implying things. |

| Beat Happening – Indian Summer Lyrics

|
Um, I have to say, clearly about going on a picnic on a nice day in autumn and then necking in the woods. Boy tasting? Touch a girl? I touch your hem? Clearly about oral sex. |
