Bagman
« on: May 04, 2010, 05:16:31 PM »
Purple means I'm not sure / I'm crazy / or I have a hearing problem.  Don't make fun of me if I'm totally off.   :P  :D


Bagman honey
Bagman sugar
Bagman honey
Bagman sugar

I know it feels good
But be careful with your vices
Falling, crawling on your knees again
Watch out for the bagman!

Bagman honey
It'll drive us insane
Bagman sugar
Oh, do what you want
Bagman shorty
?? ?? ?? baby
Bagman sleazy / sees it??
Does it hurt?

We almost got it right
Revelation
Conversation made it laden with the
Bagman's bag

Bagman honey
It'll drive us insane
Bagman sugar
Oh, do what you want
Bagman shorty
?? ?? ?? baby
Bagman sleazy / sees it??
Does it hurt?

Then, there was a dream
When you said we would be free-heeeee
But now is the time
To be real-eeee-eeeeal!

Bagman honey
Bagman sugar
Bagman shorty
Bagman sleazy

Bagman honey
It'll drive us insane
Bagman sugar
Oh, do what you want...
How could they not notice it?! Because it's a little mint.  It's a Junior Mint!

I'm hearing something like "fatman shabby" in the 3rd line of the chorus.

so the "bagman" is the actual guy that puts a body bag over you when you die?

Oh, do what you want
That man shouted
Your money good for nothing baby? (Not sure here)
Bagman slings it
Does it all!
Cause she could play the six string better than those macho pendejos

I believe a Bagman is someone who collects money for the mob. So I think the songs is about how much you lose-- money and spirit-- when you act on your vices.

I think I got the "unintelligible" lyrics figured out.

"Bagman honey
Bagman sugar
Bagman honey
Bagman sugar

I know it feels good
But be careful with your vices
Falling
Crawling on your knees again
Watch out for the bagman

Bagman honey
It'll drive us insane
Bagman sugar
Oh do what you want
Fat man shouting
You're holding on for nothing baby
Bagman sleazy
Does it hurt?

We almost got it right
Revelation
Conversation made it laden
With the bagman's bag

Bagman honey
It'll drive us insane
Bagman sugar
Oh do what you want
Fat man shouting
You're holding on for nothing baby
Bagman sleazy
Does it hurt?

Then
There was a dream
When you said we would be free
But now is the time
To be real

Bagman honey
Bagman sugar
Fat man shouting
Bagman sleazy

Bagman honey
It'll drive us insane
Bagman sugar
Oh do what you want
Fat man shouting
You're holding on for nothing baby
Bagman sleazy"


To me, looks like something Scott would write. Weird yet has a meaning beneath it that you have to figure out on your own.
I'm looking for a new meditation, still looking for a new way to fly. Don't want any plastic validation, not looking for a new way to die.

He ain't no travellin' sales man

I agree with you. And I also think he says after that "your money good for nuthin' baby"

I think it's "bagman slings it," not sleazy. I could be wrong.

Yes! I mentioned that above earlier...   ;)

Also, it's that man shouted and not fat man shouted! Although that's pretty funny...cheers.

I will always associate this song with my dog. We put her down on Monday in my house and minutes later, still crying, I logged onto Below Empty to see if the new song was up and listened to it. Its a badass song, musically, but the lyrics are absolutly horrible. I would think that Scott would be able to come up with something better than "Bagman sugar, bagman honey" during the verses.
Sin makes me strong.
