The National – Racing Like a Pro Lyrics
| 16 years ago

i believe it's about a guy too (both the blue shirts and the womanly hands). and the anti blue collar sentiment is definitely there.
but what about the cake? |

Talk Talk – For What It's Worth Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
the lyrics of the 1997 greatest hits album are slightly different: 'sometimes a touch charade/finally you change' and 'along along among the crowd'. on the other hand, mark hollis does appear to sing 'along along along the crowd'.
love the song but haven't a clue about the meaning |

Talk Talk – It's My Life Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
i love miss darkk's interpretation - a pet talking to his owner. i always thought the 'you' he is talking to is the very same he - he is more or less talking to himself. either way, the first two lines don't seem to make any sense, unless there is some truth in stoolhardy's idea. confusing...that's waht it is. beautiful song though |

|

song is great though! |

Wilco – At Least That's What You Said Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
this is what happens when people say things they do not mean or when people start to interpret and second guess other people's thoughts: everything becomes a mess. i love confusion! and i love the guitar in the second part of the song even better.
but are they still serious? |

Eels – Woman Driving, Man Sleeping Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
i always thought the man was dreaming that he was in an apartment house, but i agree with you that pheine may be right. although i did like the picture of 'woman driving man sleeping' in one car.
if pheine is correct the large apartment house - little metal box contradiction makes more sense as well. |

Split Enz – Six Months In A Leaky Boat Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
'ship-wrecked love can be cruel' suggests that the six months in a leaky boat is a metaphor for a relationship that could not be. fortunately there is still a world to explore after the ship-wreck. we keep on trying... |
