its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
Ssshhhh
There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven.
What's the next line?
Ther... You sure?
There's a sign on the wall (pause)
When she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
And it makes me wonder
Ooooooh... and it makes me wonder
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow
Yes, there are two paths you can go, but in the long run
The piper's .....
(sings guitar solo, not play, sings!)
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our souls.
There walks a lady we all know
Who lights white light and wants to show
(mumbling)
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven.
What's the next line?
Ther... You sure?
There's a sign on the wall (pause)
When she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
And it makes me wonder
Ooooooh... and it makes me wonder
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow
Yes, there are two paths you can go, but in the long run
The piper's .....
(sings guitar solo, not play, sings!)
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our souls.
There walks a lady we all know
Who lights white light and wants to show
(mumbling)
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.

He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone).
And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
ok, let's just get this straight
it's a parody, it's meant to be funny, the fact that he "forgot" the lyrics is of absolutely no consequence, what matter is that he did the stupidest version of of the most recognized songs ever, butchered it and did it just for one thing
for fun
now, please move on
