Lyrics:

-chorus-
I like pleasure spiked with pain
and music is my aeroplane
it's my aeroplane
Songbird sweet and sour Jane
and music is my aeroplane
it's my aeroplane
pleasure spiked with pain
that motherfucker's always spiked with pain

Looking in my own eyes, hello
I can find the love I want
Someone better slap me
before I start to rust
before I start to decompose

Looking in my rear view mirror
Looking in my rear view mirror
I can make it disapear
I can make it disapear, have no fear

-repeat chorus-

Sitting in my kitchen
I'm turning into dust again
My melancholy baby
the star of mazy must
push her voice inside of me

I'm overcoming gravity
I'm overcoming gravity
It's easy when you're sad to be
It's easy when you're sad
Saddle up me

-repeat chorus-

Just one note could make me float
could make me float away
One note from the song
she wrote could fuck me where I lay
Just one note could make me choke
one note that's not a lie
Just on enote could cut my throat
one note could make me die

-repeat chorus-

God I love the guitar/bass part laid over the kids voices at the end - this is Flea's finest 3 minutes

I still have trouble believing this song is by RCHP. It's just so different from all their other stuff. And what he hell is an aeroplane?

hmm i see, well i think ur explanation is very good, and fits superbly. although dont get too carried away guys! like sum1 here said, knowing the message the feel of the song (thats wat polak did)...is fine, but not actually listening to it and unrestless til u find a meaning is TOO FAR. some songs dont really have a great a meaning :(, i thought this was just about music bein happy, but polak has proved me wrong! (i prefer my theory better, more cheery heehee)
