I think this song is an allegory for suicide (wait what!) the song starts off as follows I'm a pale imitator of a boy in the sky with a cap in his head and a knot in his tie from this we can see the singer pretends he was dead, from boy in the sky, and i believe cap in his head means bullet for the fact of he didn't use "cap on his head" but, rather "cap in his head. It is a bit more of a stretch but the knot on his tie could symbolise a noose. The main chorus in the non rap section seems to be taunting this character by saying "You wanna do it but you don't no what your doing baby" meaning he wants to do himself in but is told about the consquences, it then goes "You wanna feel it, but you don't know what your feeling tonight" he wants to feel happy but is sprung about strange feelings leading him to be depressed. The Rap portion is him getting angry rather than his passive aggresive self. He is tired of his sexual frustration, and convinced he is superior to someone of group of people. In the uncensored version however, the song ends with the realization that he is shit and blathers incoherently through sadness. I would explain the song in more detail but I feel that should be a job for you. |
