Actually, it's not. And the lyric is "Burning - like Catherine Wheels".
If you have ever taken Speed on top of other drugs, you know what that means. Especially when mixed with painkillers, skag, weed, alocohol , downers etc.
But yes, it can be about smoking methaphetamine too if you like. It's still valid.
What you haven't said is what it says about the hoplessness some people feel.
THAT is what the song is "about". The method of self-destruction is irrelevant.
F**kin A!!! The Ultimate song to get stoned to!!! What an awesome riff.....they sound like a METAL band here!!! Amazing!I had several bootlegs of their's back in the late 80's and early 90's
At the risk of being shot here................i think if a black metal cover version of this song would work rather well. COF should of tried this song instead, rather than No Time For Crying
Remember going mental to this song when i saw the sisters at reading in 91 ( i think) mind you id done shedloads of speed as well !Hah ! Happy memories

I don't want to be rude but the song title is
"Amphetamine Logic"
and not "Logic"
Phyle9 2 years ago
@Phyle9 it was edited in some countries as just "Logic" because Amphetamine Logic sounded extreme.
PullusPardus 2 years ago
Yes, i know. Those countries are extreme! LOL
Just listen to the lyrics. The song is called Amphetamine Logic and not Logic.
It is how it was intended.
Phyle9 2 years ago
@Phyle9 yes i know...
but thats what its called on the back of the CD case. they talked about it in an interview along with why they call Marian , Marian (Version) .

I think I've heard the cover of ASP too, but I can't find a cover of a SOM song that is actually better than The Sister' version.
ThePoisonDoor 2 years ago
Absolutely brilliant track! One of my all time favourite songs from The Sisters. Andrew's vocals are incredible!
There is a very good cover version done by ASP (a band from Germany). Check it out!

A guy posted a comment saying SOM lyrics were lame!!
Women! only women come and go talking about me like they know men bought and sold
People cold and people burning.
lift up stealing hand
lit up Like candles
burning like catherine wheels
turning on
Lights, Driven like the Snow, and Amphetamine logic are poetry.
Give me more!!!

Incredible bass line, axe crunching rithym guitar, dark synth strings, avalanche percussions. Kick ass song, one of their best.
