Breeders - Doe

[Jamie165]

@visitinguncle Interesting alternative explanation for the song's lyrics, but it doesn't make any sense because lithium has a bitter, metallic taste - not salty at all.

[gristart]

Pah...and after all those years of thinking she was singing "it's so soft you tear me"

[visitinguncle]

It was posted on the noaloha.com message board, which was fucking hacked like a year ago and has yet to be restored. But it was there, I ain't making shit up. noaloha.com/breeders/forum

"An epic that will never let you forget your ex-girlfriend." well put, mr. Kurt Cobain.

[WhiteKagu]

What is this song about? My guess is getting drunk and eating pickeled pigs feet for the first time.

[visitinguncle]

It was Kim who explained the idea behind the song in a Pod-era interview.

[dogpetdog]

@visitinguncle well where is it?

[XIPHIASCDXX]

Kim says none of you are right...

[visitinguncle]

This song is not about a blow job or being petted on the head. It's about a lithium overdose ("It's so salty!") and the arson that follows. The guy says "Doe" like in Bambi, in a moment of confusion and panic. BAMBI ON DRUGS. In a field on fire! There you have it.

[dirtynuke]

I don't why I keep picturing someone getting raped every time I listen to this song. Although I do know it refers to a girl who was convinced by a boy to give him a blow job.

[Awsoman04]

wow, this is awesome

[guitarplayer9523]

@Awsoman04 You listen to The Breeders now? Go you!

[Awsoman04]

@guitarplayer9523 yeah

*reaches for the bong*

[phoinix82]

Dudes... All this talk about salty dicks...  Do you know what is, as a rule, more salty than a dick? "He knows It's good, it's real, it's pretty..."

[hihihippl]

Its a tough choice between Ween's "The Pod" and The Breeders "Pod" God. They are both such badass albums.

[helloofiree]

@hihihippl heh yeah you're absolutely right...I would have to go with Ween's though, it is by far my favorite album by them, absolutely amazing beginning to end.

[SimplyShadow]

Kim Deal is such an amazing artist, she conveys the ideas of a genius artist.

[KungFuRascals3]

I hadn't heard this CD in years. I just put it on my MP3 player for something different. I'm glad I did :-).

[sandwichsteen]

Unfortunately, reading and pondering the lyrics for Breeders songs never improves them for me.

[Hocunto]

@sandwichsteen Wanker

[sandwichsteen]

@Hocunto Yeah, 'wanker'. That's what this song appears to be about.

[theej12354]

she sounds like she would smell good.

[EdenGeek]

@theej12354

[EdenGeek]

@theej12354 and taste and feel.

[Poojauppal]

I feel like such a loser, I've never heard of them till today and now im in love.

[reinahuesos]

[deussolinvictus]

I love "Pod". It's such a great album and SO hard to believe it's 20 years old.

[mouser98k]

[gvozd123]

[Taktwo2]

Grow a pair.

[Taktwo2]

I would, but I wouldn't want to pervert myself. :[

[ryllie07]

Grow up.

[vandalissimus]

sound so pixies

[SpasticIBS]

this is one of my favorite songs of all time.

[PennyRoyaleTea]

Now that I know what this song is about I don't wanna listen to it. Why listen to a song about salty dick when you don't have to? Eck.

[analu78]

hey! (sorry about my english) you're right!! i´ve never notice that!!  salty dick!! hahahaha

[weedipikia]

I love this song so much.

[SoylentBlack1]

i remember when this album came out that someone said this song was about a girl giving her boyfriend a blowjob.

who knows?? lol

anyway great song from one of my all time favourite albums.

any sign of metal man tho?

[Thevideopyramidhead1]

It's about a girl who gives her boyfriend a blowjob and he pets her on the head like a doe.

[Taktwo2]

Goddamn I laughed my ass off. Great song but I hear it in a new light now.

[nopo182]

one of my favorites off this record. thanks for putting the whole fucking album too!

[issaru0]
