| Andrew Bird – Spare-Ohs Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
actually, he has said what it is about during a concert once.. as a child living on a farm, he had the job of making sure all of the chickens were safe from harm.. (a fox) sadly, he says that he wasn't very good at his job and had often found a horrid sight by next morning... the feathers from the now diseased chickens were often carried in the house chimney by sparrows---(hints the name, spare-ohs) to be made into nests... once again, a sad ending to these birds' lives as well (living in a fireplace) the feathers from these birds had traveled through the house and into there food, hair, but no one seemed to care.... a sad memory of andrew's that makes a beautiful song and story... |

| The Flaming Lips – Be My Head Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| though there may be other possible meanings for a song like this, there is great doubt in my mind that wayne Coyne of the flaming lips would be going for them. the single most believable idea for a song like this (in knowing the flaming lips) would be a reference to fucking up his (or someone else's) head with drugs. having an earlier release known as, finally-the punks are taking acid, it isn't an uncommon concept for the band.... not to mention, the band as a fine sence of humor and often write songs with little thought as to what they really mean. | |
