Question Posted Tuesday December 20 2005, 11:08 pm

Anyone here can explain to me what this song means? Im so confused and my friend is not good at explaining it too me. thx


Mikey got with Sharon
Sharon got Cheri
she was sharing Sharon's outlook on the topic of disease
Mikey had a facial scar
and Bobby was a racist
they were all in love with dieing they were doin it in Texas, Tommy played piano like a kid out in the rain, he lost his leg in Dallas dancin with a train...they were all in love with dieing, they were drinkin from a fountain,that was pourin like an avalanche coming out of the mountain.

chorus: I dont mind the sun sumtimes the image as it shows, i can taste you on my lips and smell you in my clothes. Cinnamon and sugar leaves, are softly spoken lies, u never know just how you look through other peoples eyes

some will die in hot persuits in fiery auto crashes, some will die in hot persuits while sifting through my ashes, some will fall in love with life and drink it from a fountain that is pouring like an avalanche coming out of the mtn.

chorus

another mikey took a knife while argueing in traffic, flipper died a natural death, he caught a nasty virus. Then there was an ever present football playin rapist they were all in love with dying they were doin it in Texas. Polly caught a bullet but it only hit his leg,Well He shouldve been a better shot he got him in the head. there were all in love with dying there all drinkin from a fountain that was pourin like an avalanche comin down the mountain

It's about how they're all doing stuff now but it's all for nothing since they're dying in the end anyway, it's all for nothing.

I'm not familiar with all of the Butthole Surfers' music but most of what I've heard by them sounds deep and profound but tends to have no real meaning. But, like I said, I haven't heard a lot of their music.

What I got from the lyrics to this song is that death is an unstoppable force and, no matter how a person lives his or her life, every person meets the same fate. And the chorus, to me, describes how people put on facades in order to appear better than they really are and that you never know just what a person is thinking and how they view the world around them.

Of course, just like any other song, the meaning is open to debate. That was just the impression I got from it.
