I'm trying to understand where the apples fit in with all of this...

to be honest i really dont rate the first album that highly. The guitar work is good but some of the lyrics are pretty cruddy. I mean a song about a monkey who explodes apples...its pretty lame (good guitar work tho). I like the other albums, the latest 3 are really good. Any way i just got this one so maybee it will grow on me

i think it isnt about a monkey, but more of an annoying bossy kid or something that wants EVERYTHING to go his way

this song is one of those that arent supposed to be thought too deeply about. i think he lyrics just kind of happened one day. it rocks, though.

I really don't think the song is supposed to make sense. No song with the line "Yeah, monkey" in it wants to be taken seriously.

Wow, everything seems to make sense after hearing the monkey explanation. But am I the only person who thinks thinking up a story like that might mean you've gone off the deep end? (I'm joking Jack White is probably one of the greatest minds of our time) This song is great! My fav White Stripes song.

I like that explanation because it follows the color scheme It's like a creation to keep the reds and whites in and all others shall explode Wicked
