Put that gun to my temple
Put that gun in my heart
Let's walk off the plank, Chi-Cha
All always, all always into the dark
A-I-D-S-H-I-V
I cannot wait to die
Can't you tell?
Can't you tell?
Can't you tell?
Never finish my degree, Cha-Chi
Never play with the Pogues
Throw my head out the window and
Cement my feet into the dark
Put that gun in my heart
Let's walk off the plank, Chi-Cha
All always, all always into the dark
A-I-D-S-H-I-V
I cannot wait to die
Can't you tell?
Can't you tell?
Can't you tell?
Never finish my degree, Cha-Chi
Never play with the Pogues
Throw my head out the window and
Cement my feet into the dark

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Magical

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
this song, from what i understand, is about a patient at an AIDS clinic in california which jamie once worked at. jamie befriended the patient and wrote this song about him. as far as i know jamie does not have AIDS himself. if i remember correctly this info is second-hand from jamie (that is, i heard it from a friend of jamie)
i've seen the same info on the message board i think. this song is beautiful, as are all xiu xiu songs. even though the lyrics are so simple there's so much emotion there.
this song is amazing
The original version of this song (by Jamie's band IBOPA) is...amusing. The music is energetic and the chorus is shouted out in a way completely different to the way this song works.
This song is special to me because someone I loved is now dying of AIDS. I love the way he sings, it elicits a whole range of emotion.
About a young person dying of aids. The person will never get a chance to enjoy the pleasures of life because aids is killing them at suck a young age. The person just wants to die and get it over with.
this song is so over the top, and it is meant to be. i wish it didn't have the a-i-d-s-h-i-v part, really.
I like the IBOPA version tons more, if only because this one has some sloppy arrangement.
The A-I-D-S part is so catchy actually, I catch myself singing it, which I'd imagine is rather intentional. This song is really great.
This is so amazing. I cried the first time I heard it.
