From the first listen I thought this song was referring to sex toys.

I mean, they're the type of machines you keep hidden away in the drawer.

And that's amusing to me so I'll just keep thinking it.

My Interpretation

That's what I thought too, I just kept it to myself cuz I thought maybe I was being too dirty minded. I thought A machines could be guns, having the A stand for Automatic and B machines were Battery operated, lol.

That is exactly what I thought and am sticking to thinking just that;) Heheh

This song is so overtly sexual in musical quality I'm not sure how it could be interpreted any other way.

I thought this was about Plan A gun and the secret Plan B one that you have secretly.

Or used more figuratively. But the A and B referred to "plan a" and "plan b".

On the table- out in the open, easiest thing to get to, right in front of you in the drawer- hidden, but still there nonetheless.

I think this song is about the robots taking over

Agreed.

I think this song is about consumerism and its effect on modern society.

Dude, that's really fucking obvious.

You got that from "Got my A machines on the table, Got my B machines in the drawer"?

lol.

There are two sentences in the song. Both lyrics are painfully ambiguous and in and of themselves don't say very much. To put it bluntly, his song probably isn't about anything.

Regardless, it's a pretty decent song, though not the best on the album.

I think this song is about honesty and how people may show one motive openly but they also have a hidden motive.

i always think of this song as being about making good grades

To me this song is about putting your best stuff out in the open while the worse stuff is hidden (like in a drawer). So the message is just "be awesome". The music certainly helps convey that!

yeah I agree with owlhowlscowl...

Like in movies when someone says to drop your weapon and you put your gun down on the table as if that's all you were armed with... But you know you have a backup in the drawer next to you!
