Ryoshi posted:Steely Dan is full of these. "Time Out of Mind" is sung from the perspective of a heroin dealer trying to entice a young person into using it. "Gaucho" is supposedly about a wealthy gay couple that is fighting over one of the dudes side pieces. and of course, "Everyone's Gone to the Movies" is about a neighborhood pedo called Mr. LaPage showing all of the local teenagers 8mm porn movies while their parents think they've gone to the cinema. probably the most subversive band ever. Pretty much every single track they ever recorded is about some kind of creep, lowlife, dealer or gangster

John Denver Hoxha posted:I still don't get the '26 dollars in my hand' thing. Wouldn't he get like an even amount and then buy smokes with the rest? Like yeah I could see somebody desperate getting a 6 bag but once you break 20, might be more efficient to get a 20 bag, bottle of thunder chicken, and cigs. right? you must be a fellow junkie/former junkie. SciFiDownBeat posted:grimes' "oblivion" is about coping with the trauma of getting sexually molested and the whole "see you on a dark night" chorus always seemed like an invitation or something. Like she wants to be assaulted again.
