In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Ow, come here boy
I met a drummer last week
At a pool bar down b-by the shore
With a body like that and your skull-marked eyes
I want you more
He cried, "Mother! What'd you do to me?"
I said, "Mother mother mother's for babies
Call me kitty."
Yeah
Shake your kitty
Shake your kitty (meow)
Put your arms around me, babe
I'm giving you permission to feel me
Shake your kitty
Shake your kitty (meow)
Put your arms around me, babe
I'm giving you permission to feel me
Shake your shake
Shake shake
Shake your sh-shake
Shake it, shake it
Shake it, shake it
Shake it, shake
I took a journey by the hand
To the jukebox then
We hit the floor
With your Van Halen pin
And your dark side burns
I want you more
He cried, "Mother! What'd you do to me?"
I said, "Mother mother mother's for babies
Call me kitty."

I'm giving you permission to feel me
Shake your kitty
Shake your kitty (meow)
Put your arms around me, babe

You'll never call me by my name
But I still want you
You play some pretty tricky games
But I still want you
Your best friend drives a fancy car
But I still want you
You're working every hour
But, but I still want you yeah!
If you see a girl this pretty
Shake her, shake her, shake her kitty

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
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.
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."
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Shake your pussy?
yeah i'm not sure what else kitty could stand for. lol oh lady gaga....
Nope, Lady GaGa refers in this case to a kitty when she actually means a girl. Shake ur kitty means f*ck your girl, nothing more nothing less.
Eh this songs about wanting to fuck and be fucked, again not making love. There is a difference I believe in the words.
kitty also refers to money does she want money? :O
Oh yes definately about being fucked and us monsters know how much she loves fucking :)
I believe the lyrics are:
I met a drummer last week At a pool bar down b-by the shore With a body like that and your skull-marked eyes I want you more
and then...
I took a journey by the hand To the jukebox then We hit the floor With your Van Halen pin And your dark side burns I want you more
It's "stone-washed" eyes and "I took a drummer by the hand".<br /> The rest is right though. :)
Kitty = her muffin.
Most of her unreleased tracks are just so filthy... But I love them all. :D
