Fall
What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
A plate steel object was fired
2
And I did not feel for my compatriots
3
Hated even the core of myself
4
Not a matter of ill-health
5
It was fear of weakness deep in core of myself
6
The fact attainment was out of...
7
[Mounting orations/What generations]
8
[Dumb populations/What emulations]
9
To be humbled in Iceland
10
Sing of legend, sing of destruction
11
Witness the last of the god-men
12
Hear about Megas Jonsson *
13
Cast the runes against your own soul
14
There is not much more time to go
15
Work fifteen hours for the good of the soul
16
And be humbled in Iceland
17
Sit in the gold room
18
Fall down flat in the Cafe Iol*
19
Without a glance from the clientele
20
Your coffee black as well,
21
Hair blond as hell
22
Cast the runes against your own soul
23
Roll up for the underpants show
24
And be humbled in Iceland
25
And the spawn of the volcano
26
Is thick and impatient
27
Like the people around it.
28
See a green goblin redhead, redhead
29
Make a grab for the book of prayers.
30
Do anything for a bit of attention
31
Get humbled in Iceland
32
What the goddamn fuck is it?
33
That played the pipes of aluminum
34
A Memorex for the Krakens
35
That induces this rough text
36
And casts the runes against the self-soul
37
And humbles in Iceland
38
[* Megas Jonsson is considered to be "the father of Icelandic
39
Rock''roll"; he "ridiculed the sacred Sagas of [Iceland], wrote
40
Scathing,
41
Surreal lyrics, got heavily into booze and drugs, was barred from radio
42
And shunned by society. In 1979 he released a double album called
43
"Plans For Suicide," announced his retirement, and hasan't performed in
44
Public since he's now a dock worker." -- from Colin Irwin's 26
