This would be the Red Hot Chili Pepper's song Can't Stop It sounds wicked awesome, but I dont think anyone has a clue what they mean... any one want to give a stab at it? (The seconds verse seems much more random and ununderstandable...)

Can't stop addicted to the shin dig
Cop top he says I'm gonna win big
Choose not a life of imitation
Distant cousin to the reservation
Defunkt the pistol that you pay for
This punk the feeling that you stay for
In time I want to be your best friend
Eastside love is living on the westend
Knock out but boy you better come to
Don't die you know the truth is some do
Go write your message on the pavement
Burnin' so bright I wonder what the wave meant
White heat is screaming in the jungle
Complete the motion if you stumble
Go ask the dust for any answers
Come back strong with 50 belly dancers

[Chorus:]
The world I love
The tears I drop
To be part of
The wave can't stop
Ever wonder if it's all for you
The world I love
The trains I hop
To be part of
The wave can't stop
Come and tell me when it's time to

Sweetheart is bleeding in the snowcone
So smart she's leading me to ozone
Music the great communicator
Use two sticks to make it in the nature
I'll get you into penetration
The gender of a generation
The birth of every other nation
Worth your weight the gold of meditation
This chapter's going to be a close one
Smoke rings I know your going to blow one
All on a spaceship persevering
Use my hands for everything but steering
Can't stop the spirits when they need you
Mop tops are happy when they feed you
J. Butterfly is in the treetop
Birds that blow the meaning into bebop

You'd be surprised how often artists write music simply to satisfy rhythm, rhyme and pronunciation. It's not uncommon for lyrics to have absolutely no meaning intended by the artist.

its about the problems of being truly unique in society, and being able to grasp reality, and the inevitable inability to work outside of the usual compounds, the trappings of conformity in other words its them questioning how relevent their music is if so many ppl like it, when the majority is usually wrong (ei. Bush or Kerry getting elected). its about ppl who've buttons have been pushed, but have stuck, like say if your computer is always on CAPS LOCK, AND THERES NO BUTTON THERE TO TURN IT OFF, ITS SIMPLY FALLEN OFF OF UR KEYBOARD, AND NOW UR STUCK LOOKING AT ALL UR LETTER DIFFERENTLY (THEYRE THE SAME LETTERS, BUT THEY SEEM TO BE AUGMENTED), AND PPL DONT WANNA READ UR POSTS CAUSE IT BEGINS TO HURT THEIR EYES AFTER A WHILE.
