the current riots in london (which have also spread to birmingham) give a whole new meaning to this song... |

it sounds to me like its about woman who's husband/bf/etc is just a fake person and she knows it. and even though their love is gone, she fakes it too to keep the image of their relationship going. |

sounds like it could also be about a guy whose girlfriend is a junkie and ends up OD-ing.. or a girl who is depressed and loses all touch with reality. or the disillusionment of a couple who thought they would be in a certain kind of happier relationship forever but arent. |

hm. it sounds like maybe its about trying to make someone think youre in love with them when they're doing the exact same thing. trying to make a relationship work, wanting to be in love with each other... |

| Wilco – Walken Lyrics

|
|
what the song about is pretty easy to interpret. however, the title throws me off a little bit. "walken" is not the correct way to spell "walking" or "walkin" ...so is it a reference to Christopher Walken?? [i find this unlikely] or is it mispelled by accident or on purpose? why? |

a haunting song sung by beautifully haunting voices. this song makes me feel so alone, but in the best way possible. it's hard to explain. i think the song is about knowing how to feel alive when you're alone. |

two years later, i read this song in a different light..
i'd say that maybe this is about someone who loves his girlfriend even though he knows he's such a mess and he's no good for her. probably not to his surprise, she breaks up with him.. and he just has to accept it, hoping that his honesty will eventually redeem him in her eyes... |

just listening to this song and reading the lyrics enough, it sounds to me like the lyrics are sorta like a tribal fable.. or some kinda simple didactic tale .. i love it. i think its funny and sweet and brilliant, paired with the video. very clever. |

you think it might be about the sexual frustration felt in a long distance relationship, perhaps? |

see, where it says "pearly" it sounds like he's saying "burning".. and burning white is really hot. another context to think of? or maybe im just way out in left field.. |

definitely love it. quirky lil tune.. and what with the video involving all that candy, i could easily say this is about those "treats" we desire but cant always have. |

i may have to agree with Deus on this one.. its about hoping there is a heaven and a god, but probably not ever getting to see it. |

it sorta sounds like maybe its about being in a state of paranoia ... like "watch out for this, dont go there" "underground like a wild potato" "get out of that state" and paranoia is a private thing too... |

my ex-boyfriend dedicated this song to me when i broke up with him. and then he made my life hell for the following two months. and now he's completely over me and doesnt give a shit anymore and im the one still going out of my mind although i dnt love him anymore and would never get back together with him. it kills me. so... little did he know that i was going to be able to dedicate this song back to him. he set himself up for it.
just goes to show that shit goes both ways. i may have been what he considered the cruel and ruthless person in the relationship but he became cruel and ruthless too.
two bad people in one relationship makes for a hell of a pothole in the road of life. |

yah, i was pretty sure the lyrics were actually
"its hard to be a man when there's a girl in your head"
which is actually a great play on words... it could be miscontstrued as him thinking either of a woman, or like a woman. |

seems to me like the guy is talking about how he wants this "relationship" to be off the record and nothing official because he knows its going to change... i dont think he has any intentions of committing to anyone. |

Out, everyone out - I give too much shit at home
In my heart and mind - It gets me every time
i think that implies that he mulls it over in his head too much. then again i could be thinking too much. :) |
