Tie Your Mother Down Lyrics
Song was written by brian may so don´t homosexualize it. even if it was written by freddie, don´t homosexualize it.
I think Brian was young and horney when he wrote this!
@gmandi1708 I agree. He was alone on a mountain doing research for his Astrophysics Doctorate at the time he originally wrote it. I think he was horny and wrote a song about trying to get alone with his girlfriend.

It's about a boy whose girlfriend's parents don't like him and try to stop his seeing her so he is encouraging her to defy them and see him anyway. Simple as that.
WHY ARE THERE SO MANY PUBLISHING BLOCKS?! IT'S DRIVING ME MAD!
But it's Freddie. He has earned respect...

Hmm... they've cleared the blocks up it seems...

No, I don't think it's about May's sexual desires. I've read somewhere that it was just a working title, but Freddie encouraged him to keep the title Tie Your Mother Down. Probably Queen's odd sense of humour? Anyway, the riff is quite...great.
May was playing the guitar riff one morning and singing this line "Tie your mother down," which he considered a joke, but Freddie encouraged him, and he finished writing it, thus the song! Really has no deeper meaning...
lol I think this song is well funny it's about a guy who hates his gf's family simple as that :)
whoops sorry, this song was written by may not murcury so completly ignore my last comment :) yeah i think it was about a girl underage and May loved her and couldnt wait until she was 18
Incest rears it's ugly head again...
the narrator wants to make sweet love to a girl... or at least become her boyfriend but doesnt want her family to butt in
I think the intention is to "fuck her brains out" rather than "make love". Consider 1970s sensitivities.

It's about one of Osama's sons on a date with one of the Bush twins!
