It's about the binding of Isaac from the Bible. It also fits in the themes about parents (especailly fathers) and children that runs through the album, Young Man in America, which as a whole is about Anaïs Mitchell's father. |

The East Coast/West Coast feud was kicked off by Tim Dog with "Fuck Compton" in 1991, and was still well under way in 1994. It didn't really cool down until 2pac and Biggie were dead. |

| Wu-Tang Clan – Triumph Lyrics
| 13 years ago
|
When you show your ass to someone, it's called mooning. So he's saying "I'ma rub your ass til it shines" and also making a pun on "moonshine".
Nothing to do with the moon reflecting off ass, that's making shit more complicated than it needs to be. |

This was the title song for John Carpenter's movie Prince of Darkness. It plays during Alice's cameo, when he recreates the "bicycle impalement" trick from his stage show. |

| Gnarls Barkley – Crazy Lyrics

This sweetlild21 person has made the exact same identical post six times in comments for this song, a lengthy ramble about how the song's apparently about drugs.
Ain't it just like a druggie to see references to drugs everywhere they look, and to repeat themselves over and over? ;) |

When I was at school, we used to do a thing where we'd sneak up behind someone and say "Flash!" and then pull their hair so they'd go "A-ah!" It seemed pretty funny at the time. |

Do you have the Iron Eagle soundtrack version? Because the version on Greatest Hits II definitely says "Fried Chicken". I know that the Iron Eagle version is supposed to be different, but I don't know what the differences are. |

| The Cramps – Psychotic Reaction Lyrics

Count 5 cover, and in my opinion The Cramps version is the best.
It's quite obviously about how fucked up you get when you can't get with the one you want. |

| Tom Waits – Chocolate Jesus Lyrics
| 15 years ago
|
Why do so many people on this site seem to want every song to be about drugs?
He's wrapping him up in cellophane because it's hot and he's melting! He's chocolate, so when he melts he looks like Big Muddy River!
And to reference the next line, a parfait is much more likely to contain chocolate than heroin. |

That's an original response, daisygrantt, however did you think of it?
But it might be about Coca Cola, given that their tagline is "Coke is it!" |

I always thought that the "crazy chance" was that they cheated on their partner, who then found out about it and broke up with them. Now everything reminds them of their lost love, and they regret throwing it away. |

It's about delayed gratification. And this song is as hot as the title, in every sense of the word "hot". |

| John Denver – Annie's Song Lyrics

"A Farewell to John Denver" by Monty Python parodies this song, changing the opening line to
You came on my pillow
and then continuing go the sound of what is supposed to be John Denver being strangled. |

The single covers don't necessarily have anything to do with the songs.
For instance, the live single of Run to the Hills has a picture of Eddie on a mountaintop with a pipe organ, ripping a mask off his face. Can I Play With Madness shows a spring-loaded fist crashing through Eddie's head. Infinite Dreams shows Eddie jumping a motorcycle over a crowd. Etc. |
