| Trexor, If you go back and read my post, you might get some insight as to what we are talking about here. The song is about hypocrisy, not marijuana. Marijuana was just a vehicle or literary device for Maynard to talk about people committing atrocities and hiding behind laws or positions of power. Diverting our attention from their wrong doings by waving fingers and keeping the looking glass pointed the other way, and policing us. Do yourself a favor and read up Kangaroo courts and what is happening in Guantanamo Bay, or find out who Black Kettle is and what happened to him. Why was he killed? Think about how that might relate to what is happening right now in the world. How that might relate to the US war in Iraq. I know this stuff is tough for a 19 year old such as yourself to digest, and may include a sort of textual analysis you are not familiar with, but please stop spamming the TooL boards. Maynard has been writing theses types of songs long before you were aware TooL existed. | |

| He's calling out all the hypocrites that criticize stoners, but are just as lazy and worthless. Druggies might be liars, but so are lawyers, there isn't much difference. People get up on a soapbox and preach about what everyone is doing wrong, but they are standing in a flimsy house of cards. And people that live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones, because eventually they get back what they've dished out. That's a clear reference when he talks about pissing on the black kettle. Ever hear the phrase, 'calling the kettle black'? You see everyone else's faults but not your own. | |

| After reading the lyrics through a few more times, I want to say that I think it isn't limited to just the drug issue. I don't think that is the main focus. The title is a double meaning, marijuana referrence and it goes back to the 'pot and kettle' thing. | |

| Imagine how ignorant Trexor feels after saying for so long now that the leak was fake. If you have been listening to Tool all along and know their style, than you wouldn't have doubted this cd for a second. This is 100 % genuine Tool and the cd is amazing. | |

| oh god, no... you're not saying that a majority of Tool's fans probobly smoke cannabis are you... please, jesus, no, i sure hope no one attatches a label to a band like Tool... i'm sure they'd be devestated... fuck man, you seem more concerned about what people will think about you if they catch you listening to this than how good this song is... this song kicks ass... the heavy bass lead reminds me of opiate | |
