Did the come up with this title from Zora Neale Hurston's quote? "Even in the helter-skelter skirmish that is my life, I have seen that the world is to the strong regardless of a little pigmentation more or less." |

I think Dr. Horrible's just saying that when he finally takes over the world, he'll make Penny his queen and give her a whole new country to reign, and I guess they just needed something to rhyme with "failure" lol |

I would say this song is about being able to stay strong through and after rough times...definitely my favorite right now.
Unlike everyone else though, I heard it on How I Met Your Mother...perhaps one of the best shows ever. |

hey i have a question, the name of her album is "For Lovers Dreamers and Me", is that inspired from the Carpenters song "Rainbow Connection" where the chorus goes:
"Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection.
The lovers, the dreamers and me." |

It's supposed to be "My GESSO", not "My just world". I got it from the CD booklet, although I don't see how the Italian word for chalk makes any sense there...any ideas? |

| Jimmy Eat World – Firefight Lyrics
| 16 years ago

These lyrics have a few mistakes, here are the correct lyrics straight from the CD booklet:
This is where our diligence has led
The waves roll in to claim our patient steps
Can we become more than just ourselves
And leave the sand our want, our will, our doubt?
It's firefight and I won't run.
There's spit and spite all through my blood
For you and me, there's nowhere left to hide
Except you and me, there's no one else alive
This is now the moment after next.
Are these still the eyes of the temptress?
Why open the door when you won't go?
Don't ask twice if you don't want to know.
It's firefight and I won't run.
There's spit and spite all through my blood
For you and me, there's nowhere left to hide
Except you and me, there's no one else alive
Is there an answer?
And if it's an honest one, honestly worth its question
There's no question,
The city as my witness, I am who I want to be,
Because you could be anything,
Just be anything and with me
Love is quartz and breath the second hand
If you let go then that's where time will stand.
It's firefight and I won't run.
There's spit and spite all through my blood
For you and me, there's nowhere left to hide
Except you and me, there's no one else alive. |

Oh yeah, "Across the Universe" is awesome. A few underdeveloped characters, but that doesn't belittle it's greatness...it's the Beatles and you can't go wrong. (Esp. not with Bono as Doctor Robert LOL) |

| The Beatles – Glass Onion Lyrics
| 16 years ago

Although many of the Beatles' songs have a much deeper meaning to their words, this song is just messing with people's heads/remembering some of their old hits. Also, John is actually the walrus, but they say Paul in this song because...
"In the 1980 Playboy interview, John responded to the confusion:
'I threw the line in — "the Walrus was Paul" — just to confuse everybody a bit more. And I thought "Walrus" has now become me, meaning "I am the one." Only it didn't mean that in this song.'
Paul also responded to the lyric in an interview broadcast on a Beatles documentary on WYNY 1981:
'[John] happened to have a line go "the walrus was Paul" and we had a great giggle to say "yeah, let's do that," because everybody's gonna read into it and go crackers cause they all thought that John was the walrus.'"
The Beatles themselves are claiming it's just fucking around, even if the fucking around is just one part of the song. Enjoy the song for what it is... |
