Does anyone listen to this group? I was listening to their lyrics, what the heck do they mean? i swear these guys are tripping everytime they come out with a song, i understand one song - Lightning Crashes, but the others - Dance With Me, and Dolphins Cry i have no idea. Anyone know?

I'll admit their lyrics can get quite "interesting".

You've got me on this one. :D

i dont know much about what they mean but they definitely use a lot of religious imagery

There used to be a pretty large forum for discussion of lyric interpretations called songmeanings.com but it's been down for a my excellent compatriot's age.

I interviewed Ed Kowalczyk once when he came to my college, and I didn't know what the hell he was talking about. I swear he must have been high or something

hahahaha, that musta been cool. I wouldn't doubt if they're tripping every time they write a song though

Some of their earlier stuff is a little more literal, but not by much. They're pretty good live (ha!). Best song is probably Waitress or Sh|t Towne. All of Throwing Copper is good though :)

They really don't strike me as a band that does a lot of drugs, but I suppose it could be possible.

the people on www.songmeanings.net seem to agree that the song is about "sex on the beach" and that is what the band says when they play the song. They should do a remix about tuna sandwiches.
