Bitters End Lyrics

Lyric discussion by iholdtheline

The song is so great; can't believe no one has commented. If you listen closely, it has the same beat as Ben E. King's "Stand By Me," which is probably deliberate. From what I can tell, the lyrics are actually making fun of 60's "everything's alright" type of songs, while drawing on them at the same time. That understanding seems to go well with the overall feel of the album, which is slightly reminiscent of 50's and 60's rock.

My Interpretation

Sounds a like lot Animal Farm :p
