Point And Click

This whole "I'll be waiting, son" quasi-theme is touched upon again in one of their new songs, "I.O.U.".

I swear that when I saw them Patton shrieked the "I bought a gun" part...I have lots of Tomahawk bootlegs and he doesn't seem to do it in any of the others.

I think it's about the obsessive feeling that you're the only person for someone and that you'll just wait for them to realize it as they wade through all the other shit until it takes them to figure it out.

I was just thinking about this song the other day and I thought that perhaps it's about a father that tries to show his son the whole world, wants him to know it and overprotect him, stating that even after his death "he'll be there for him floating above it all".

There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that this song is written from the perspective of a De Niro in Taxi Driver/John Hinckley (sp?) type character - a wacko who will do just about anything to get the attention of the girl he's obsessed about...even get a gun and shoot someone (famous?)

agreed with the Taxi Driver-type situation. However I think it's about a killer spying on his future victims.

I think 'I'll prove the Holy Roller's true' is actually -

"I'll prove the holy road leads to"

The best song that he is associated with outside of Angel Dust I agree with the taxi driver scenario, cause Patton is really big into his movies - I saw this live and it is so sinister and eerie! This song makes the album

Some of his best lyrics are character driven - RV (white trash guy) Crack Hitler (shark) Everythings Ruined (Broker) Quote Unquote (Travolta) Midlife Crisis (Madonna) Point and Click (Travis Bickle)

I think he's speaking from the perspective of, perhaps Satan himself, who is trying to become the omnipotent entity or God if that's what you like to call it.

This song is based on the 1976 film "Taxi Driver"
