What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Yeah, when I was only seventeen
2
I could hear the angels whispering
3
So I drove into the woods
4
And wandered aimlessly about
5
Until I heard my mother shouting through the fog
6
It turned out to be the howling of a dog
7
Or a wolf, to be exact
8
The sound sent shivers down my back
9
But I was drawn into the pack and before long
10
They allowed me to join in and sing their song
11
So from the cliffs and highest hills
12
Yeah, we would gladly get our fill
13
Howling endlessly and shrilly at the dawn
14
And I lost the taste for judging right from wrong
15
For my flesh had turned to fur
16
Yeah, and my thoughts they surely were
17
Turned to instinct and obedience to God
18
You can wear your fur
19
Like a river on fire
20
But you'd better be sure
21
If you're making God a liar
22
I'm a rattlesnake, babe,
23
I'm like fuel on fire
24
So if you're gonna get made
25
Don't be afraid of what you've learned
26
On the day that I turned 23
27
I was curled up underneath a dogwood tree
28
When suddenly a girl
29
Her skin the color of a pearl
30
She wandered aimlessly, but she didn't seem to see
31
She was listening for the angels just like me
32
So I stood and looked about
33
I brushed the leaves off of my snout
34
And then I heard my mother shouting through the trees
35
You should have seen that girl go shaky at the knees
36
So I took her by the arm
37
We settled down upon a farm
38
And raised our children up as gently as you please
39
And now my fur has turned to skin
40
And I've been quickly ushered in
41
To a world that, I confess, I do not know
42
But I still dream of running careless through the snow
43
Through the howling winds that blow
44
Across the ancient distant flow
45
To fill our bodies up like water till we know
46
You can wear your fur
47
Like a river on fire
48
But you'd better be sure
49
If you're making God a liar
50
I'm a rattlesnake, babe,
51
I'm like fuel on fire
52
So if you're gonna get made
53
Don't be afraid of what you've learned
