My World Lyrics

You wan'da step into my world
It's a sociopsychotic state of bliss
You've been delayed in the real world
How many times have you hit and missed?
Your cat-scan shows disfiguration
I wanna laugh myself to death
With a misfered synapse
with a bent configuration
I'll hold the line while you gasp for breath
You wanna talk to me
So talk to me
You wanna talk to me (7 times)
You can't talk to me
You don't understand your sex
You ain't been mindfucked yet
Let's do it (3 times)
Oh my distorted smile
Guess what I'm doing now

this song absolutely SUCKS!!!! this album is magnificent - i'd rate all of the songs 5/5, and then you want a good finish, but then you have a legendary rock and roll band doing a crap rap song. well done Axl, you dip - shit!!!

Some of you are reading too much into the line "Guess what I'm doing now". Listen closely and you'll hear it...

Guess what I'm doing now = smoking a pipe (mj or crack...don't know which).

This song used to freak me out when I was younger....

Is 'sociopsychotic' even a real word or did Axl invent it? Anyway, I kinda like this 'song', even if it is just a minute-and-a-half industrial/techno/rap from a hard rock band.

I think the song can be interpreted in two ways. You can either look at it the way that most people would, and see axl rose displaying his utter insanity.

Or you can view it the other way, and realise that displaying utter insanity is probably the point of it. Axl knew what he was doing when he put this on the album. There's no disputing it's a shit song when you first listen to it, of course. But I think it's more than just axl excercising his ego... I think it's a wisecrack, a stab, at the people that criticised his mental state. He utilises the industrial beat and the explicit sounds to create a feeling of unease in the listener, and thus it scares most people, and makes them say "I hate it!"... but that unease then creates the feeling of fear towards axl, and I think that's probably what he wanted. He's taking a stab at people who say he's crazy, by acting crazy.

Why else would the lines "you wanna talk to me, so talk to me" be repeated? They're used to display the fact that he's sick of critics sitting around saying "axl rose is psychotic", but not taking the time to actually look deeper into his soul.

I think overall, it's more than possible that he's going for a "maybe I am craaaaazy, does that scare you!?!?" kind of approach, just to rebel against people and piss them off. It's like the line "but I won't do that" in meatloaf's "I'd do anything for love", it's either pure stupidity, or pure genius. In the end, it comes back to your belief on one of the most disputed things in rock n roll history... is axl rose a genius or a madman?

...This scared the hell outta me the first time I heard it...

Wouldn't mind a whole album from Axl like this.

It is fairly obvious to me that this song is about masturbation...He is fantasizing while mentally belittling the one he is thinking about. "You ain't been mindfucked yet" is the line leading up to "Guess what I'm doing now," where the "victim" is now being mindfucked. It is simple really...

This isn't as much of a song as it is a piece of art. There's so much going on: constant moaning, Axl's clearly insane/shroom fueled lyrics... I enjoy listening to it just to get a better feel for how Axl's brain works.
