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.
Aah
I want to share your mouthful
I want to do all the things your lungs do so well
I'm gonna bed into you like a cat prance into a beanbag
Turn you inside out and lick you like a crisp packet
(Hey,hey,hey,hey,hey, hey)
You're the first and last of your kind
Hold me like an animal utaffable
I wanna be every lever you've pulled
And all showers that shower you
Not a pop or a tune
Like a cat falls and I wanna dump her
Me, I'm in the bin
Ignore her worth, and some trivia
Hey
Ooh, devour me
Ooh, Lou Lou, let the cover girls sing
Hey (doo doo doo doo doo doo)
All hand claps
Human claps
(Let me be the wallpaper that papers up your room)
I want to be every button you press
And all mouths that surround you
Yes, I'm gonna roll around you
Like a cat rolls around the chrysanthemums
I'm gonna kiss you like the sun grounds you
Hey
Oh oh oh oh oh devour me (hey)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh devour me (hey)
Oh oh oh oh oh (oh oh oh oh oh)
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh (oh oh oh oh oh)
If you really think that you can stomach me (hey, hey)
Hey
Hey
I want every other freckle
I want every other freckle
I want every other freckle
I want every other freckle
I want every other freckle
I want every other freckle
I want every other freckle
I want every other freckle, freckle
I want to share your mouthful
I want to do all the things your lungs do so well
I'm gonna bed into you like a cat prance into a beanbag
Turn you inside out and lick you like a crisp packet
(Hey,hey,hey,hey,hey, hey)
You're the first and last of your kind
Hold me like an animal utaffable
I wanna be every lever you've pulled
And all showers that shower you
Not a pop or a tune
Like a cat falls and I wanna dump her
Me, I'm in the bin
Ignore her worth, and some trivia
Hey
Ooh, devour me
Ooh, Lou Lou, let the cover girls sing
Hey (doo doo doo doo doo doo)
All hand claps
Human claps
(Let me be the wallpaper that papers up your room)
I want to be every button you press
And all mouths that surround you
Yes, I'm gonna roll around you
Like a cat rolls around the chrysanthemums
I'm gonna kiss you like the sun grounds you
Hey
Oh oh oh oh oh devour me (hey)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh devour me (hey)
Oh oh oh oh oh (oh oh oh oh oh)
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh (oh oh oh oh oh)
If you really think that you can stomach me (hey, hey)
Hey
Hey
I want every other freckle
I want every other freckle
I want every other freckle
I want every other freckle
I want every other freckle
I want every other freckle
I want every other freckle
I want every other freckle, freckle

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
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."
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan

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.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
CORRECT LYRICS- Copied directly from the physical album
I want to share your mouthful I want to do all the things your lungs do so well I'm gonna bed into you Like a cat beds into a beanbag Turn you inside out And lick you like a crisp packet
You're the first and last of your kind (Pull me like an animal out of a hole!) I want to be every lever you pull And all showers that shower you
I'm gonna paw paw at you Like a cat paws at my woolen jumper Be your Minpin And Borrower of handsome trivia
Devour me
Lou, Lou, let the cover girls sing!
All handclaps you will clap (Let me be the wallpaper that papers up your room!) I want to be every button you press And all baths that surround you Yes I'm gonna roll around you Like a cat rolls around saw dusted patios I'm gonna kiss you Like the sun browns you
Devour me If you really think that you can stomach me
I want every other freckle
'tis about de sexi tymes
This song made me an Alt-J fan, and instantly became one of my favorite songs in general. Ever. It's strangely erotic whilst maintaining that folksy, barely off-timed beat and seemingly nonsensical lyrics structure that is familiar to their listeners. I'd venture that it's one of their only songs that could be classified as "sexy". To me it's not only sexy and erotic, but it's also moving and sweet; it's like he loves this person so much that simply being around them is not enough - he actually wants to be a part of them. Their very essence, I suppose. It's beautiful in a very unconventional sense.
@pleasebeatme92 yes, lol, i agree 100% song is so dark and yummy that its irresistable.. that level of emotion anf deep feeling leaves most people speechless with clashing emotions do or dont.. are you sharing my bed tonight? kinda thing.. its very animal music, and who will admit to being an 'animal'? haha<br />
@pleasebeatme92 you said this perfectly... this is exactly how i feel about this song :)
Loved the way the song mentions Lou Reed (Lou, Lou, let the cover girls sing!)
@radio_chin the line "And Borrower of handsome trivia..." is for you then. Pretty sure that line alludes to the Lou Reed reference in the following line.
I think the song is about him being so in love with this girl, he thinks she a goddess.
Why did they mention a cat in pretty much every verse
I think because he's comparing himself to a cat pawing for attention and cats are known to roll around in a humans clothes to get their scent, etc. He's being animalistic, but not in a dangerous way.
Probably my favorite song on the album. It's creepy, sexy and talks about a kitty all in one song.
It's both creepy & sexy that he wants to be part of everything about her to that level.
Also, who puts chrysanthemums in lyrics!?! So awesome.
I'm wondering what he meant by "every other freckle", i feel like its obvious except I just don't get it.
@MyTheory Wow they really have the lyrics screwed up there! This is just my perspective: Each freckle is a piece of her and he loves her so much that he wants to be in every facet of her life. He obviously has some "freckles" because he has knowledge of her but he wants all of her. So, he wants every other freckle. "Every other freckle" meaning "all other freckles", not just half of them like most people would initially interpret it as. Just my thoughts...hopefully it helps!
@MyTheory I also feel that the way that that line is repeated again and again, in such an intense way, he is going from freckle to freckle and they are rarely in a straight line or in any particular order he knows he will get lost and it will be never ending! At least that's what I pick up on... :-)
As an American I was thoroughly confused by the line "turn you inside out and lick you like a crisp packet." I lmao when I found out it was a potato chip bag! Hilarious! I really love these guys!
Those lyrics up there are so wrong that they're laughable. I mean, I'm literally sitting here in the library at school laughing to myself
