The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
I Can't Go To Sleep

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
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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.
come on, any album (debut, nonetheless) that starts with "sucking on my tittles" is a force to be reckoned with. This shit blew my mind when i first heard it. It's electro, but really just rock-n-roll/punk in spirit. The ending is so intense, with the simple hi-hat coming in. Somehow it works. See her live.

I hope that last comment was a joke, because I was laughing my ass off the whole time I read it. I really hope it was a joke.
chrissy's name is in this song. shes my best friend.
i also like the way it's chrissy (be)hynde. clever ha
Good Song.
Just by reading pple's post's made me want to sign up.
For one, pple who are insulting other's because there saying what this song mean's to them, yes they should bash it, but bashing the user who did is just stupid.
But as for the meaning of the song, Its about a girl & dating. the boys want her nuts and what not. and she's a bit of a slut, IUD is a device to help you not get pregnent, SIS, which most pple got right is, stay in school. Peaches is saying dont be a slut and get pregenant, stay in school.
i don't know this song was hyped up for no reason other than being edgy and stupid. And that goes for everyone else on here loving it as well.
Yeeeeaah, considering that this is one of the first prolific white female rappers who made it a point to embrace her sexuality and subvert standards, I'd try thinking over this comment again. Peaches is still going strong, and on top of that, she makes all of her own music.
I think this song is about Fucking The Pain Away. In Mayburry Gomer Pyle always had a fascination with titties as demonstrated by season 2 episode 6 and 9. Season 4 episode 20 and season 9 episode 11. Its pretty clear that in the video which you can reference on youtube gomer pyle was super horny for Peaches but she just wanted her titties sucked. Gommer or as I like to call him Gommie was more interested in fucking his pain away. He was a hopeless romantic but she just wanted to feel that new love/fuck feeling. LOLICOPTER

This moronic group of idiots called millennials actually believe this is music.
Garbage. It's just nonsensical garbage, from first note to last. It's incredibly sad that there is an entire generation who can't tell this apart from actual music.
So you idiots go ahead and fuck the pain away... I'd much rather ride the Crazy Train to the Jungle while I'm Breaking the Law and Screaming for Vengeance. Then I'll take a Painkiller and Walk down to the Cemetery Gates to meet my fellow Cowboys from Hell, and we'll go chase some Girls, Girls, Girls until we Shout at the Devil and have to go seek Sanctuary from those Bastard War Pigs. We'll see who has more fun.

@preacher11 You are aware that the generation before you said the same thing about your music, yes? And the generation before that said the same thing? <br /> Generations are not homogeneous drones, all your juvenoia is doing is showing your inability to understand other people, not demonstrating superiority.

"This song is MY song. This is MY stripping song! This song kicks so much major ass! The song is not godawful. WHat the fuck is godawful?! This song is da serious SHITZ dude!"
I like Peaches, but what the fuck? People like you make me hate the artist.
THANK you.
You're so right. I've been mildly addicted to Peaches for years but dimwits like this could shock me out of the spell that Ms. Nisker has cast over me.<br /> "Stripper Song"?! She oughta look up "godawful" in the dictionary sometime. The definition may real like a sketch of a biography for her and set her straight.<br /> This song is my pure sugar cane soda. Not g6dawful, not so healthy either.
love the beat. peaches doooo rock. yes indeed. <3
