This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Maynard, Maynard, Maynard
I had a friend once he took some acid,
Now he thinks he's a fire engine,
It's okay until he pisses on your lighter,
Kinda smells, kinda cool, kinda funny anyway.
Satan, Satan, Satan, Satan, Satan
I had a friend once he took some ecstacy,
Tried to marry me and everyone in the room,
He was sort of loving, kind of caring,
Kind of tried to fuck my lazy-boy,
It got a bit messy all over the curtains,
Armchair, throw pillows, covers, and carpet.
Getting bored and more,
Getting bored and more,
Getting bored and more.

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
No Surprises
Radiohead
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
jesus christ wtf are you people talking about? tool is a big drug band.. seriously... they're big on tim leary, the king of acid trips, that means something doesnt it? lol they arent anti drug at all, more pro drug than anything, just certain drugs, such as acid and weed, but not coke, meth, or ex
This song is a humorous little extra added to the end of Opiate, to leave no doubt that this band uses mind expanding drugs. Members of the band have been quoted saying they use LSD and DMT, The Eggs Of Satan is a Hash brownie recipe, the text in Aenima is describing Ketamine, a dissociate anaesthetic, also a hallucinogen. Timothy Leary is also mentioned in the text, the king of LSD who formed the first psychedelic religion called the League for Spiritual Development, abbreviated, LSD. If anyone watches any of Tools videos, they are all psychedelic, and are meant to be watched by people under the influence of psychedelics. Third Eye is a term psychedelic users can understand as these drugs pry open your third eye and allow you to see reality and life in a different perspective. Anyone refuting that Tool does not use psychedelic drugs has never used psychedelic drugs because if you had there would be no doubt your mind that Tool uses and creates music for people who are on hallucinogens. Listen to the beginning of Third Eye. Bill Hicks talks about drugs and LSD to Pink Floyd-inspired heartbeats in the background. Pink Floyd is one of the most famous acid-rock bands. Listen to Lateralus and Aenima on LSD, it will be amazingly brilliant. Danney Carey is one of the most innovative influential percussionists out there. Keep it up Tool!
The first quote isn't from Maynard but Bill Hicks.
I relly don't have time to go through all the replies so I'm not sure if someone already noticed this, but does anyone notice that the gaping lotus experience starts on the 6th track on the 6th minute and 6th second.
Rodney Dangerfield had a joke: "How do I my make my wife scream when I'm having sex with her? I wipe my dick on her curtains."
You guys are taking it too seriously. It's HUMOR. It's funny. If anything, it's a bit of a tongue-in-cheek riff on mysticism, drugs and the psychedelic experience. But basically, it's just fun and funny.
An ironic and unsubtle take on a Beatles / 60's psychedelia song with modern day drug references. Right at the start is a sample of backward masking, something the Beatles used to do in their music.
I'm not so sure if the last part is right, that's what it sounds like to me.
I love this song, which is hidden after Opiate. I'm surprised no one put it up before, because I think that it's one of the most important songs that Tool has done. Important in respects as to what Tool is about.
It's mainly about the stupid things that people can do while under the influence of drugs. I love the part where he starts saying "Satan," it's just so in your face saying this is what drugs are, which I totally agree with. The last part, "getting bored," I think is Maynards reason as to why some people use drugs. People are getting bored with life because of what it has become; totally devoid of meaning for generation-X (I hate to be called that), sometimes. I think the "more" that he is referring to is the 3rd eye that can come from drug use. It allows us to see that there is more to life than money, drugs, cars, clothes, sex, or anything tangible.
I think this song is pretty straight forward, especially for Tool, but if anyone thinks there is a different meaning then please let me know.
Not really right about the drug thing because Tool has used and is presumably still using hallucinogens like DMT nowadays which is not damaging, and helps them create such amazing music. So i doubt they are saying they are bad. They are just describing stories in a funny song that parodies subliminal messages and hidden songs, i.e. "satan"
this song is called " The Gaping Lotus Experience"
Fixed.
