Originally posted by Alpha Centauripeople inturpret lyrics anyway they want, but most likely they're going to be wrong, and in the case of TOOL, you're most likely ALWAYS wrong.
So this is the thread Lana told me about. Hahaha.First off, good to see Rex teaching people who's boss in his thread. Go Reximus. T-Rex....Rex Factor etc.
Second, the amount of nonsense in that Tool argument, posted from BOTH sides, was laughable.
"Tool worship the devil." "I know what Tool lyrics mean."
No they don't and no you don't. Nearly every single interpretation posted on the net is wrong, as said by the man who wrote the lyrics. So don't think it makes you smart to say you "get" the lyrics. There are certain themes maybe, yes, but you don't know what they mean, so don't claim you do.
Half the people who think they know about Tool are either not into the band and judging them from afar, or the type of fan who listens through the albums, takes part in a few discussions and feel they are on the band's level. It's hilariously pathetic and I shall have at you all for ruining this bar and grill.
