I love this song but it has always been a mystery. You know something seedy and perhaps very disturbing is going on, but you aren't sure quite what.
Wedren recently had this enlightening bit to say about the song:
"It all connects up in a Rubik's Cube kind of a way," Wedren says of the song, which was originally written in 1993 with guitarist Nathan Larson. "It's playful, mischievous, sexual, dark, and unsettling. Is the subject dead? Or just asleep? Will she come to my woozy party? There will be kissing and licking. There's also a Geisha-like formality to it, a seduction dance."
He adds: "I think of 'Hit Liquor' as a ViewMaster reel. We supply the pictures, you supply the meaning."
