Lighten Up, Francis Lyrics
Mama-san is hittin the town to
swing her booty around
shake it all up and down
Mama-san is hittin the town
booty bump to the sound
no more nose to the ground
It's time to lighten up
It's time to lighten up
and to get out of your head
and get back in your booty
time to get out of your head
and get on back in your booty
Time to knock the train off the rails
feel the breeze of her sails
she done her hair and her nails
Time to knock the train off the rails
no more sweatin' details
no more verdicts and bails
It's time to lighten up
Mama-san says
'always, never'
these words no longer have a home
It's time to lighten up
time to get out of your head
and get on back in your booty
time to get out of your head
to get on back in your booty
Mama-san says
'always, never'
these words no longer have a home here
She's got the stealth and prowess of the panther
Rickson Gracie
watch her glide across the crowded floor like
Fred and Grace
It's time to lighten up
time to get out of your head
and get on back in your booty
swing her booty around
shake it all up and down
Mama-san is hittin the town
booty bump to the sound
no more nose to the ground
and to get out of your head
and get back in your booty
time to get out of your head
and get on back in your booty
feel the breeze of her sails
she done her hair and her nails
Time to knock the train off the rails
no more sweatin' details
no more verdicts and bails
'always, never'
these words no longer have a home
time to get out of your head
and get on back in your booty
time to get out of your head
to get on back in your booty
'always, never'
these words no longer have a home here
Rickson Gracie
watch her glide across the crowded floor like
Fred and Grace
time to get out of your head
and get on back in your booty

Seems to me its a song about getting away from life and hitting the town for a fun time. But this being Maynard, I'm sure there is another meaning here. But at this time I'm just not getting it. Anyone else?
Honestly, I really think for once the song is what it is. Maynard even stated that the Puscifer project is purely for fun, and that his other bands (of which are more cathartic for him) take a lot out of him. The whole album just seems like fun, focused mostly on sex and large matronly woman that embrace their sexuality. Maybe it's an homage to female seuxality?

Francis Bean Cobain...or maybe I'm completely wrong.
"Lighten up, Francis" is actually a line from the movie "Stripes."
,.... something must have been going down within puscifer and maynard is telling "francis" to lighten up and get over it.... through the song is the only way he can reach her. doesnt he write about real life? puscifer has nothing to do with the government or anything except himself, at least that is what puscifer used to be about, maybe the past few years the intentions of puscifer possibly have changed.. could be wrong but i believe I am correct..... "no more verdicts and bails" stop the arguing and lighten...

I like the shout out to Rickson Gracie, whom he studies ju-jitsu with.
The song is about a lewd sex act.

This song is about not overanalyzing things and thinking too much and going with what you feel is correct rather than what your brain says is correct.
