Ok. First off, Louise and Nina are not gay. never were. Louise actually dated Dave Grohl and now has a child. so that interpretation is just plain wrong. lol
It's pretty obvious this song is about getting knocked up
I mean. the yellow baby part, isn't that like universal language for pregnancy tests? red babies meaning "sorry, no baby this time. try again" and yellow babies meaning "yes, you just got yourself a brand new baby" or whatever.
either way, girls are supposed to pee on those sticks. so the baby is gonna look yellow anyway.
so yeah. yellow baby -she discovers she's pregnant.
is a bad sign but i don't mind -she tells herself it's o.k. but she's scared
spider monkey is actually a sex position. and it might be a good lie in the same way that having sex standing up is safe and won't get you pregnant is a lie. like she was told doing it that way would be safe and well...
only that it's actually not a good lie. it's a bad lie. but she obviously keeps telling herself that "it's a good lie" because bottom line she was fooled by someone however she's not ready to accept that, even though deep inside she knows it. hence the "i don't know why" line. i don't know why it's a good lie. it isn't, okay.
Forsythia is a flower that is yellow. like the pregnancy test baby.
Forsythias grow on spring. and everybody knows springtime tends to make people more horny. so people actually have more sex during spring. and thus more ladies get knocked up.
The whole chorus "One thing about Forsythia / She comes around and I get lost /Against her yellow I'm no longer me." sounds pretty emotional to me. but it fits just fine into my interpretation.
a.k.a our subject comes across this plant and upon her recent discovery of pregnancy, she just sort of contemplates it, appreciating its beauty and musing on the idea of having a child. which can be pretty overwhelming for someone who wasn't expecting it.
Anyways, the next verse
I don't mind sitting in the way back, way back
if you ever went to school, have you noticed how the people that sit in the back are usually the people that try hard not to be noticed by anyone. bitch's a smart gurl. she's gonna sit in the way way back, that way she might fool them for a few days when the belly starts to show?
I don't mind, lying to my friends
hey, did you just go to the restroom and vomit? Yeah, that taco was no good...
so there you go
for all we know, this might be the irl story of the first time Nina had to schedule an appointment with an abortionist during her high school years. but she wasn't gonna tell that it's about that so.
hey, it's about telling lies!
