Grandaddy – Miner At The Dial-A-View Lyrics | 21 years ago |
Pretty self-explanitory. Some sort of miner who is kept down in the mines for years at a time, and uses a device called a "Dail-A-View" to see place where he used to live. He dreams of going back to home. |
Bright Eyes – From a Balance Beam Lyrics | 21 years ago |
I'm pretty sure its a song about rebirth...getting a new lease on life. The first verse seems vaguely like some sort of photo/video shoot, with all eyes on the narrator (Conor). But the second part is definately aiming towards the idea of changing your life, or your outlook on life. |
Fountains of Wayne – Utopia Parkway Lyrics | 21 years ago |
Being young and in a rock band. |
The White Stripes – Seven Nation Army Lyrics | 21 years ago |
The title comes from what Jack thought the Salvation Army was called when he was a child. |
The White Stripes – I Want To Be The Boy That Warms Your Mother's Heart Lyrics | 21 years ago |
About trying to impress a lover's mother. |
The White Stripes – Ball and Biscuit Lyrics | 21 years ago |
Jack says the ball & biscuit reference is to a recording microphone, though as its phrased in the song, it can't be anything more than a novel reference to sex. The "seventh son" is a reference to the fact that Jack is indeed, the seventh son. The second verse, the "read it in the newspapers" bit seems to confront Jack's sudden fame, and how he is well known. |
