Mess Around Lyrics
Now your brother’s gone you’ve been coming around
You’re a little bit young, but a little bit pretty so I guess that’s fine
You wanna mess around?
Yeah I guess that’s fine
We’ll mess around
You’ll make me smile just you wait and see
Your body will be found before your hair can grow
Grow out long
Long white fingernails
Push ‘em down
Turn your head around
You’re a little bit young, but a little bit pretty so I guess that’s fine
You wanna mess around?
Yeah I guess that’s fine
We’ll mess around
Your body will be found before your hair can grow
Grow out long
Long white fingernails
Push ‘em down

I think this is about a girl finding comfort in the singer after the loss of her brother and slowly falling in love with him.
No this is about a guy who meets an underage girl and kills her, along with the themes of the entire album. "Your body will be found before your hair can grow out long", come on.
Hilarious, I love how on almost every song there's a comment with completely the wrong interpretation, and then another correcting it. But yeah, listening to the music, if I didn't know what the album was about I guess I'd probably be thinking along the same lines as comment #1...or at least hoping that was it.
