Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture Thomas Average	#1 by Thomas Buckman at Mar 29, 1978 at 8:18 AM EST
	this song is about.. or at least how i took it.. is about a girl whose a big dReamER.. she lives in a cloud.. she can't see who she is.. (or her "reflection") cuz shes lost in a world of magazines and movie stars.. but the life she wants isn't possible.. which makes her more depressed.. and she continues to live in her dream of movie stars and magazines... this song is my best friend to me.. summed up in a song.. and shes the least fake person i know.. just a dreamer... being killed by the ideals of society..

	"And at home her mother cried cause daddy had something on the side and they didn't look up when she sighed."

No Picture Jake Average	#3 by Jake Staley at Jun 19, 1985 at 7:48 PM EST
	I just saw these guys in concert.. boy, what a show! They opened with this song and I must admit, Chris' squirming/dancing turned me on!!

No Picture Jake Average	#4 by Jake Staley at Sep 24, 1987 at 7:11 AM EST
	Yeah, this is a good reality check for those that aren't satisfied w/ what they have. This song is about a girl who tries to be something she's not. I wouldn't say it's about anorexia persay... I mean, maybe it is but there's no way we could know that.

No Picture chris Average	#5 by chris nagel at Apr 30, 1993 at 8:23 AM EST
	this songs great... i saw them play last night, and i think this is my favorite song they did live cause the crowd was totally into it and chris does a funny lil dance.

No Picture Justin Wanna Be	#6 by Justin Neafsey at Aug 3, 1995 at 9:00 PM EST
	This song reminds me of an awesome book I just finished reading. It's called "I Was a Teenage Fairy" by Francesca Lai Block. It's about these two kids who are forced to be child, then teenage models. i love it when he says "The plastic canopy, of US royalty"

No Picture Murders in the Average	#7 by Murders in the Rue Morgue at Dec 13, 1996 at 4:23 AM EST
	"when August came around, bathing suits on the ground, replaced by a cotton cloak" I think that line means that she was checked into a hospital.. therefore she was wearing a "cotton cloak"

No Picture Alex Lead Player	#8 by Alex at Feb 3, 2001 at 5:42 PM EST
	This song is the epitome of the female student body at my High School

No Picture Jeff Average	#9 by Jeff Berg at May 29, 2003 at 4:36 PM EST
	This song is about one girl who is fake. When it says "To see her own reflection was like squinting in the sun" thats what it means,someone who is fake and isnt themself.

No Picture cody Average	#10 by cody champion at Sep 22, 2005 at 2:08 AM EST
	i really have myself convinced this song is about anerexia. just becaus ei can relate to it, my best friend recently told me she was suffering from anerexia and i just listen to this song and man i dont know. and what Atarisemokid said about the cotton cloak and being checked into a hospital, thats such a good way of looking at it. ijust wish i could meet chris and ask him all these questions about what some of his songs really mean.

No Picture eric Rhythm Player	#11 by eric christian at Feb 5, 2006 at 6:04 AM EST
	this is a great song...
