Conan Troutman Lyrics

Best anagram for Conan Troutman would be "contaminator" leaving one n out, otherwise it could be some guy they knew. It's pretty obscure.

The lyrics are obviously about smoking weed: "Feed my lung, flower seed" / "Burning my brain and burning my teeth" / "Taking your life from off you / Now you're gone and i'm free" = as the herb burns out he's getting high, plain simple.

@Hopefiend: unlikely this is about opium, it's another declaration of love for grass ("Live the love that i have for you"), just like Gardenia, while 100° is totally about cocaine and so on. Opium is not that common or popular among young people anyway, much harder to find, and a love song about something you smoke once in a while is a bit of a stretch. Only (late) reference about opiates came with QOTSA's Feel Good Hit of The Summer where vicodin is mentioned, and it makes more sense.
