@OFWGz I'm not trying to start a war when i say this but keep in mind alot of "Straight Edge" people end up doing drugs and having sex and drinking after a while because they soon realize it's not evil at all. I do all that stuff and what do you know, I still have an education and am in a very happy relationship with someone who feels about the same as me and he used to be Straight Edge. I'm just saying keep an open mind because you never know how your life is going to turn out.
I think saying "we are all on drugs" rly means that society in general is on drugs such as superficiality, materialism, and conformity in order to get by because life would be too difficult without adopting the mandates of society. Rivers admits that we cant get off of these "drugs" because society is built on them just like drug users cannot break their addictions.
@Iiilyana clean and sober are two different things. and neither is necessarily something to be proud of. Pointing out all the books you haven't read doesnt make you a fair critic. Don't look down your nose at people because you think a closed mind is something to value.
The song went into mixing with two of the wrong lines, "I want to confiscate your drugs, I don't think I can get enough", and was eventually released that way on early printings of the album, and on published sheet music, but was replaced on future printings (as well as on the CD single) with "I want to reach a higher plane, where things will never be the same."
@Megabuds420x I call bullshit on this. Say It Ain't So is about his parents divorcing because of his father's apparent ALCOHOL addiction, and how he could never approach his dad about it in fear of hurting his feelings, as well as how he feared the same happening with his mom and step dad/
@xDaveTheButcherx Thank you, i was about to reply to him before i noticed that someone already showed him how stupid he is. I love he did "research" on that lol.
@PulpFictionFTW88 coffee and cigs do alter ur mind and are substances lol and if u were to think about things on a deeper level instead of just the definitions ur fed, ud see the way things really are
its saying weather u do the "Formal" drugs or not ur still on drugs.. pursuing ur own dreams and doing what makes u feel good is like doing drugs.. thats why he says noone cares if u do them or not.. cuz everyones on their own shit
@djjopa quote from the songwriter himself: "Don't take it literally...I'm singing more about the fact [of] how addicted we all are to stimulating ourselves, and over-stimulating ourselves with music, or whatever it is in our lives. [It's] not necessarily about drugs."
@dh777777777777777777 I agree to an extent but I think "he" is singing about how we are all stimulating ourselves and over-stimulating ourselves with "actual drugs" too which is part of his broad description when he says "internet, gambling, DRUGS, relationships" I think the drugs he speaks of are "actual drugs"! and the other mentioned [habits] are "actual drugs" as well
It think it was really stupid that this song got band on MTV. They showed videos where people are killing other people on all those rap videos throughout the entire 90's, but you can't say drugs on television???
WHITE MEN CANT BE VOOL WITHOUT DRUGS. OH WAIT WHITE MEN CANT BE COOL ATT ALL., Listen To Hämdens Vapen - All Unite Against The White. IF Youre Ready to take revenge !!
No, it's about how people are addicted to gambling, the internet, or just addiction. Contrary to popular belief, it's not about drugs. Or at least not just drugs.
A Lot of people don't realize that realize that this song isn't really about being "On drugs" entirely. It's about how today's society is hyped up on something. Whether it's technology (like cell phones or ipods) or the latest Vera Wang dress. Weezer forever<3 :) WOOT!
