Misinterpreted Song Lyrics


Yep Brenda Spencer on a killing spree!
 

Nothing wrong with the song, I was referring to the fact that it's rolled out when people go back to school/college or people referring to it when they're reluctant to go to work....

And yes it's about that 16 year old in San Diego.
 
And then there was "Turning Japanese" by the Vapors .

The man wasn't really turning japanese at all!!!!!

Indeed!

Took me a long time to learn what it was about. Always realised of course that it was highly unlikely to be taken literally, but still, the true reference surprised me a little.
 
You left out Golden Brown by the stranglers - a nice little ode to heroin.
 
I love "The Wind Cries Mary" by Hendrix and "Last Dance With Mary Jane" by Tom Petty, both songs about a drug with M and J in the title
