Slutsy Tipsy as reference to life concerns
Every bit of life's experience can hold answers to unsolved puzzles. It's a matter of vision, sight, insight.
In this case, we take the example of Love/Hate's classic rock song "Slutsy Tipsy". At first it appears to be a hedonistic ode to the male-based passion fantasies, culturally gender-biased power-trips and intoxicated nonsense blathered-out by the mushroom/booze/opiatic frontman Jizzy Pearl.
But, upon closer inspection, with the poetic proweress of literature in our corner, we can see a much deeper meaning:
"you thought you'd blow my mind"
-Regards the inherent ignorance of the premature mind. At the same time this stanza reconciles the need for an awakening, a violent and forceful one.
"you thought you'd suck my thumb"
-Describes the recognition of simulated and overtly-sexual innuendo as a means of intimidating and seducing this premature mind. The media acknowledges sex and sexual imagery as a pure force of ensnaring the attention of a pre-awakened state. The sex-content works in an almost sedative manner by distracting an individual from higher causes with the instinctual, animalistic urge to merely propigate it's own genetic matter. This particular stanza cunningly points towards the infantile state of this seduced individual by referencing the child-like past time of thumb-sucking.
"you thought you'd be
sweet a little slutsy tipsy"
-In which the author realizes the ease in which an individual can simulate the sense of connecting with others by merely lowering their inhibitions and servicing the instinctual needs of another. The persoanal needs of the individual remain undiscovered while a satisfaction-like euphoria of feeling necessary presides the consciousness.
"you thought you'd buy some beer"
-On the path towards awakening, the indulgences of the common man are cheap and plentiful. The easy access and potetent numbing of the beer high is staggeringly effective in dumbing-down our culture in much the same way that the indians where wiped out with the aid of whiskey. The natives, while in this desensitized state, where easily tricked out of their land and eventually executed by means of diseased blankets. In this same manner, one can only assume the beer-buzz in reference will only lead towards a similarly negative fate.
"you thought you'd crucify me"
-The fear of religion and religious consequences ironically hinders the spiritual path. The ways of others simply do not mend the gap sought to be healed by true self-recognition. The rewards of consciousness and a true awakening of the soul are not in knowing the answers, but in finding them.
"you thought you'd be
sweet a little slutsy tipsy
sweet a little slutsy tipsy"
-In which the original chorus, as it stresses it's meaning by repeating itself twice, re-occurs as a cyclical draw towards the wrong path. This persistance tells of the worlds unrelenting attack on our individualism and how it compounds itself with each returning strike. The path towards rightiousness is harder than any other and will be booby-trapped with seemingly logical pitfalls and self-serving rewards of no consequence.
"you won't be alone
it's warm inside"
-As a last effort to hold one back, the life of commonality is pitched as being full of others "just like you". Warmth and comfort are temptations hard to pass by. The spirit must have strength and conviction in order to realize that these comforts are only temporary at best.
"love is a special thing"
The final words reveal that Love is ultimately a unique and worthy prize in this quest towards awakening the individual's spirit and feeling the freedom of unshackling the cultural bindings that work to keep our dreams unrealised.
As you can see this simple song holds vast reward for those willing to trust it's meaning as being more than what it initially appears.
Next time we will explore Who, exactly, was shaking Tom Keifer, and you may be suprised to find out the answer.
