A classic in terms of the 'lost innocence' motif, this gem has inspired everything from Pretty Woman to Inception

quote:

Sit on my face and tell me that you love me
I'll sit on your face and tell you I love you, too
I love to hear you oralize
When I'm between your thighs
You blow me away
Sit on my face and let my lips embrace you
I'll sit on your face and then I'll love you truly
Life can be fine if we both sixty-nine
If we sit on our faces in all sorts of places
And play, 'til we're blown away

Pretzel Logic is about time travel.

Don't Take Me Alive is about an Asimovian robot holding a bunch of people hostage as part of an existential crisis about the nature of life.

Peg is about convincing a woman to let you record sex with her by plying her with other pornography.

Chain Lightning might sound like it is about gay sex from literally everything about the lyrics but it's supposedly about the frightening intensity that spreads through KKK hate rallies like a disease.

I Want You by Third Eye Blind is also about vampires, you can tell by all the lyrics talking about vampires.

(actually is that song about a sexual predator or some drug I'm not hip enough to know or what the hell)

Nah, the 3EB song. The chorus is "you do you do you do you do you do, you're making me want you" while some guy in the background sings "calling all you vampires". I think there's also a faint woman's voice shrieking or talking in the background (much like Peg which I mentioned above, which has a woman sobbing "I don't want to do this" in the background of the last verse.)

E: the song may genuinely be about vampires.

"Time Out of Mind" is sung from the perspective of a heroin dealer trying to entice a young person into using it.

"Gaucho" is supposedly about a wealthy gay couple that is fighting over one of the dudes side pieces.

and of course, "Everyone's Gone to the Movies" is about a neighborhood pedo called Mr. LaPage showing all of the local teenagers 8mm porn movies while their parents think they've gone to the cinema.

probably the most subversive band ever. Pretty much every single track they ever recorded is about some kind of creep, lowlife, dealer or gangster

I don't understand why they call it female circumcision don't they just burn their clits off with a hot stick?

Anyway, I heard Race Against the Machine lyrics are really about political stuff in like Mexico but I don't know if it's true.

Definitely. It's common knowledge these days but I've always kind of wondered how many people knew the band was named after a (fictional) dildo back in their heyday.

I dunno some band names themselves have been pretty out there, Pearl Jam was pretty blatant if you knew the terminology.

There's a lot of obscure refferences in major label artists because of the process by which lyric writers get established.

"Waiting for my Man" by the Velvet Underground is about a closeted hipster cruising for some BBC in the ghetto

quote:

I'm waiting for my man
Twenty-six dollars in my hand
Up to Lexington, 125
Feel sick and dirty, more dead than alive
I'm waiting for my man
Hey, white boy, what you doin' uptown?
Hey, white boy, you chasin' our women around?
Oh pardon me sir, it's the furthest from my mind
I'm just lookin' for a dear, dear friend of mine
I'm waiting for my man
Here he comes, he's all dressed in black
Beat up shoes and a big straw hat
He's never early, he's always late
First thing you learn is you always gotta wait I'm waiting for my man
Up to a Brownstone, up three flights of stairs
Everybody's pinned you, but nobody cares
He's got the works, gives you sweet taste
Ah then you gotta split because you got no time to waste
I'm waiting for my man
Baby don't you holler, darlin' don't you bawl and shout
I'm feeling good, you know I'm gonna work it on out
I'm feeling good, I'm feeling oh so fine
Until tomorrow, but that's just some other time
I'm waiting for my man
