Jezebel

i believe this song is definetly about the biblical Jezebel, only b/c of all the direct references. in the bible Jezebel, a princess married to Ahab, is falsely accusing people of blasphemy and treason and has them stoned to death. she causes tons of problems for Israel(hence the lyric:She was born to be the woman we could blame) a revolt is formed to overthrow the house of Ahab Jezebel is kicked out the window. A man named Jehu then rides down to Jezebel and stomps her into the pavement w/ a horse leaving nothing left but her skull, hands and feet. Jehu says a pack of dogs came and ate her fulfilling the prophet Elijah's claim that "the dogs shall eat Jezebel by the wall of Jezreel."

now as far as the song goes....i think that mr. beam is using Jezebel's story possibly in reference to another misunderstood woman. or it could just be for misunderstood woman in general. perhaps mr. beam doesn't buy into the biblical notion that she is as villainous as portrayed and that she just misunderstood. afterall, the song is painting her as more of a hero than someone deserving of such actions.
