Cover art for For Tammy Rae lyrics by Bikini Kill

i thought she was straight to, but this totally sounds like a love song, and i've read other girls say, "oh this makes me think of my boyfriend," and i think...uh...look at the title, i don't think that was the intention. i mean, i guess when i first heard it i thought it meant that she and tammy rae were striving for something (the revolution?) and it failed or wasn't going anywhere, and they wanted to just pretend that they owned the world today. but then the next two verses come and BAM! it sounds like a love song, but then in a lot of her other songs, it seems to be about an expirience with a guy...crinkles brow in confusion
