@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
The so so
The tremors
The costumes
The grammar
The lightbulbs
The letters
The zeroes
And the chatter
But it's never been clearer
We'll just dance in the mirror
And we'll party and live twice as big
And you can dj if you bring that record
You said was a hit in sweden
The ???
The gossip
The ???
The ???
Now who's gonna go to roshambau
The best of a two out of three
The snap of the twigs
And the squeal of the clicks
And the sound of your head
When you're thinking of me
But it's never been clearer
We'll just dance in the mirror
And we'll party and live twice as big
And you can dj if you bring that record
You said was a hit in sweden
The tremors

We'll just dance in the mirror

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
I Can't Go To Sleep

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

But its never been clearer, we'll just dance in the mirror And the party will look twice as big. And you can be jay, if you bring that record you said "was a hit in sweden"
The power The gossip The grovel That lost it And who's gonna go, the lotion bow The best of two outta three. The smack of the twigs and the squeals of the pigs And the sound in your head When your thinking of me

"You can DJ" actually makes a lot more sense, but it doesn't sound like that in the song.
It sounds more like growl than grovel. "And who's gonna go to Rochambeau The best of the two out of three The smack of the twigs and the squeals of the pigs and the sound in your head" *This makes more sense if he is sayin Rochambeau because it's a game where moronic males kick each other in the junk and see who goes down first.
"And you can DJ if you bring that record you said was a hit in Sweden"
The accent throws people off as to what he's really singing.
Are you sure? I think it sound more like<br /> "The snap of the twigs<br /> And the squeal of the cliques"
i was walking home from school and i was listening to this song.. and I was thinking this song would be really good for the music for a runway for some fashion designer.. it would be neat to watch the girls walking from slow in the begning to then fast during the chorus and then slow again.
about showing who is better than all the others. rochambeau, who can take the most pain. knowing whats a hit in sweden, you can dj then to seem traveled & cool. & at the point of the singers life, he isn't popular, the mirror bit is him making himself have hope for the parties yet to come. then the one word things in the second verse i think are moments people have with eachother, & what goes on behind others backs, & in the beginning is just the scenery & what meets the eye during social things. i could be completely off.
ro sham bo. i thought it was just rock, paper, scissors. not so painful.
This is an awesome song about club life.
The mirror is something clubs use to make it the party look bigger because it gets people even more excited and hyped up but it is also probably an allusion to how a lot of club kids are always trying to make themselves look bigger cooler and better. rochambeau is another thing that people do to try to prove themselves. I think the "hit in Sweden" line is probably the biggest example because music is the number one way that people prove how hip and cool they are. The more obscure music is in America and the cooler it is other places gives you a lot of status as being cool. All the one word line(excluding the) are just the descriptions of a club, thing that go on and things that you get 'high' off of.
It a really fun song and it's one of my favorites.
