Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.
Mya you know the hook,
you see the bait,
I know you want a bite,
So why procrastinate,
Come on.
Everybody knows that yeah I'm kind of shy,
I'm not the kind of girl that who can ever approach a guy,
But I wanna find a way to get you to notice me,
I got a 4 wheel drive, 55, from eyes
but maybe you can handle these because I'm Free.
Single, sexy, and sweet, making my own money, looking for the right party,
And if your free,
Scoot your best thing at me, if you like what you see,
Maybe I'll let you share, My fantasy.
When I told you that I don't need a man in my life that ties me down,
And don't want a playa that can kiss all over town.
Who's these girl stripping all over my Mercedes seat,
I can stand a man who thinks he looks better than me,
I'm looking for a brother who likes to have fun,
A fly gentlemen that who knows how to please.
Last thing I need is a man who's soft,
He better get it on up, and break me off,
Some body fly high, who's 6'5,
who's shy that's the kind of man I need because I'm free.
Single, sexy, and sweet, making my own money, looking for the right party,
And if your free,
Scoot your best thing at me, if you like what you see,
Maybe I'll let you share, My fantasy.
Single, Sexy making my own money, looking for the right party,
And if your free,
Scoot your best thing at me, if you like what you see,
Maybe I'll let you share, My fantasy.
If your having a good time, just let go and don't be shy, come on yeah(oh yeah)
If your down to do anything let's sing this song together,
Be free, come on and be free with me.
Single, sexy, and sweet, making my own money, looking for the right party,
And if your free,
Scoot your best thing at me, if you like what you see,
Maybe I'll let you share, My fantasy.
Would you like to dance? Get loose,
There's a party in the house tonight,
Everybody if you feel all right,
Put your hands together.
Oh boy you look so good to me
you see the bait,
I know you want a bite,
So why procrastinate,
Come on.

"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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."

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.
