Republicans when they realize they are “the machine”
Wow Paul Ryan really just vanished, huh?
Remember those photos of him posing as working out? So strange.
My theory was that he dipped out of the GOP spotlight to plan his return post-Trump and play the part of the reasonable conservative.
When he returns to the GOP, it will be unrecognizable. It will be like Charlton Heston discovering the Statue of Liberty in Planet of the Apes.
we said they’d blow it all up damn you blow it all to hell
I agree with your theory, but I also agree with starik.
Ryan is never going to be relevant again. I think the kingmaker at the 2028 Convention with be MTG. She dropped out before this war started, and won’t have to run in 2026. I look for her to become an omnipresent talking head, bemoaning how MAGA was sold out by Trump.
Dude moved on to the Fox board of directors and private equity.
If he was any more machine he’d have Roomba written on his ass.
I completely forgot about that twink until just now
I know this post was supposed to be about “Every breath You take” and “Hey ya”, but these days “Born in the USA” and “Fortunate son” sung by conservatives come to mind.
born in the usa is the most american song of all time
Reagan used Born in the USA as a campaign song.
False, they never realize
Yea, but a chatbot can dream, right?
Everyone when they listen to “Semi-Charmed Life”
But don’t say “panties” on the radio! Proceeds to play lyrics about doing crystal meth.
You’d have to know more than the average person does about meth to know it’s about meth.
It literally says the words “doin’ crystal meth” in the song.
The line
“Doing crystal meth will lift you up until you break,”
Is neither coded nor subtle.
Clearly Disney didn’t listen to it.
Rupert Holmes - Escape (The Piña Colada Song)
It’s about 2 spouses planning to cheat on each other because they’re bored with their marriage. The only thing that saves them is he coincidentally responds to her personal ad in the newspaper and they laugh about it after meeting up. They’re shitty people
Oh, yeah. Another one is Sad Eyes by Robert John, telling his his temp girl that his real girl is coming home today, she knew it was going to happen and he doesn’t want to see her cry. “I never used you,” lol.
There are quite a few of them. One that’s been in the news lately is Lola by The Kinks, which Moby called unenlightened and he’s right. One I always found creepy was Cat Stevens’ Wild World saying goodbye to his lady, because whatever he’s wishing her it’s not well. “I’ll always remember you like a child, girl.”
That’s not even starting with all the underage lyrics.
The 70s were amazing for music, but there sure are some clunkers in there.
Clearly that song was Jimmy Buffett.
Like a Prayer. I always laugh when I hear catholics sing this. they have no idea they are singing about giving blowjobs.
“Pumped up kids”
Edit: kicks (and I had checked the lyrics…)
*Kicks
Also, that song is over 15 years old now?? 👶 👨 👴
It’s old enough to be shot in high school
They better run, better run faster than their bullet!
That song isn’t very subtle
Blues Traveler just fully trolling listeners. 😆
i hadn’t caught that many layers. that’s clever
average response to the translated lyrics of the dancing cow song
There’s only one thing on my mind
five grams of coke, fly away alone
to the land of nevermore
There are thoughts inside my head
when this state will end
When I won’t be alone
Cause white eel* will kick in /x299 red balloons as well imo.
not gonna lie it’s a banger
My BIL had this moment listening to Copacabana on a vacation one time
“WTF They killed Tony!”
And Lola never completely recovered, became an alcoholic, and she’s still trying to live in her past.
For Barry, the song is pretty dark.
That’s Another Day In Paradise by Phil Collins.
I first heard the song as a child, on the radio being driven around by my parents. Didn’t really take the verses on board, and the chorus is simply repeats of “Oh, think twice. It’s another day for you and me in paradise.” With that big romantic hook and the warm breezy feel, as a kid I interpreted it as a groom asking his bride to consider extending their tropical honeymoon. I filed it in the same mental folder with Fields Of Gold.
It’s a song about abject poverty, about haves and have nots. Verses are about beggers on the street calling out to the wealthy who pretend not to see them. It lands like a brick.
Reminds me of Afternoon Delight from Arrested Development.
Mr Brightside. I remember hearing the song when I was at uni, first thinking it was a real banger and in a drunken haze in a club started to actually listen to the lyrics and felt an uncomfortable connection, realising it was from the perspective of someone being cheated on and I’d gone through something similar at the time.
Semi Charmed Kind of Life by Third Eye Blind.
At first when I really heard the part about snorting crystal meth I thought I must have downloaded some weird cover like the ones you used to sometimes get from Limewire.
Lmao, it was while reading this comment that I realized it wasn’t Semi-Charred Kind of Life, a mistake that ironically helped me see that it was darker than it seemed.
It makes the line “I want something else to get me through this semi-charred kinda life” pretty obvious that he has negative feelings about it and from that I could guess that there was some kind of pain between the lines, though younger me thought maybe infidelity or some kind of mania (which I guess isn’t too far off the mark).
That said, despite the hidden tone, that song always makes me feel good. The overt tone is just so upbeat!
No cock like horse cock
For me that was more laughing uncontrollably than horror, dude sets up the intro so well and has that weird old timey vibe spot on so it’s so unexpected
So subtle from the title
The title should have been enough 🤨
One of my favorite bands in China released a song called “Hang The Police” over 20 years ago. And they still play it live there. The chorus is going on my sign for no more kings protest this weekend:
Hang the police under his shotgun. Hang the police before we are all murdered.
