Lyrically, I have the same interpretation of "Planet Shhh" like I do several other Cap'n Jazz songs, which is probably ignorant of me, but whatever. As far as I know they were all in their late teens and/or early twenties when they recorded this. I think a lot of their songs reflect a nostalgia for the innocence of youth and insecurities about growing up. To me, memory is an artform and with these somewhat abstract lyrics (of which, many reflect tonguetwisting nursery rhymes) comes interpretations of these memories. This song in particular with the line "I can't shake the shapeless memories every time I read sassy." Overall I think this song might be about a belittled teenager, maybe as a result of strict parenting? But maybe that strict parenting is justified because the teenager is misbehaving? Just some thoughts
