Better Than Ezra – Desperately Wanting Lyrics 10 years ago
"When they pumped out your guts
And filled you full of those pills"
...
"Then they ask what went wrong
When they turn you on again
They turn you on again"

Based on above we have a person who probably tried to commit suicide and failed. Then the doctors pumped this person with mental drugs tweaking doses etc to him on again. It is an anti-Pharma song.

Steely Dan – The Royal Scam Lyrics 10 years ago
Surprised no one comment on the Welfare angle: "How they are paid in gold Just to babble in the back room All night and waste their time". Indeed money flowed to fuel the drug addiction and dole. Heroine users don't work.

The Strokes – Last Nite Lyrics 11 years ago
11 pages of comments and no one gets it? Good job public schools. First, the tune is a tip of the hat to "American Girl" by Tom Petty which is about a young woman jumping off the Florida University dorm room tower balcony. Now I give you a clue, its is the 3rd line:

I said people they don't understand
No girlfriends they can't understand
Your grandsons they won't understand
On top of this I ain't ever gonna understand

Metric – Artificial Nocturne Lyrics 11 years ago
The lyrics are inaccurate. The key lyric is "Fate, I have to take the con."

So the narrator is indicating only one world to live in, and losing the innocence one must resign himself to the inherent manipulation in life.

Grateful Dead – Cumberland Blues Lyrics 12 years ago
I think the key lyric is "Lotta poor man got to walk the line Just to pay his union dues." So no matter, you Pay The Man. The only way out is to create yourself. Free minds, free markets. Parents are the number one stifler of a child's creativity, then come the public schools. After that it is amazing any child overcomes the constant onslaught of b.s.

"I don't know now, I just don't know If I'm goin' back again." Don't!
