I had to sign in only to comment on this song, which I really like.
"Fast cars, fine ass
These things will pass
And it won't get more profound"
The song is pure wisdom. He means by this that everything is just as it is. Like the zen month. They don't keep looking for the meaning of life or fore deep explanations, they just live things through experiencing them directly, without falling in the labyrinths of the mind with their concepts or right and wrong, the worries about past and future.
"Time is a game
Only children play well
How can I love you
If you won't lie down"
Only children play well the "game of time". This means, they live in the present. They are just as they are, without worries about what happened or what will happen. They concentrate fully and completely in that, what's going on in the present moment. Everything else don't exist. They are free.
When it comes to love, so he want's to be sincere and direct like a child. he looks this women and his body says he wants her. As X said, bringing flowers and all the courtship thing that is nothing else than the speculation of getting sex in the end is all cut out and he gets direct to the point where the body wanted to go from the beginning: lay down and we can make love.
Why bother with an adult game of calling, not calling, doing wrong or doing right, making oneself more interesting for the other? Let's just do it like the kids and show ourselves as we are, without theaters and all this complications. Let's show what we want and what we came for. But how can I do that, if others won't rap away their masks? = How can I love you if you won't lie down?
"My youth for a bell
Who's who in hell
My kingdom for a crown"
I am not so sure about this line. With "my youth for a bell" he could be saying he is willing to give all his youth pleasures away to wake up and be in the moment. The bell, in many religions, stays for awakening, for being pulled of the automatism and dive inside oneself's soul.
Who's who in hell? I googled this one and found: "Who's Who in Hell is a compelling, uproarious, and achingly moving story about what happens when our plans for life meet its plans for us." This fits to the music, as I understand it: I wan't to be myself and open for the moment and for what life has reserved for me. I want to awake and live the present.
My kingdom for a crown: The crown, in my perception, stands for loyalty to quality, for something of real value. In this case it stand for the inner essence and it's richness. In the Kabbahlah, the crown stands for the first sefirah, which is the emanation of God's hidden essence, it is infinity, oneness and the eternal: that, which was never born and will never die.
The kingdom, which stands for material possessions, he gives away. Just as fast cars and fine ass, the kingdom will pass.
The crown, the inner light, that will never pass. And we are all running away from it, although it is exactly that, what we are secretly looking for.
It's kind of annoying that I can't edit spell errors here. So I am doing it in the reply:
