== Song Meanings/Interpretations == | |||
The lyrics to this song seem to revolve around a character named John, who is brought to the speaker against his will. The speaker also touches upon the theme of identity, referring to the difference in appearance between John and his parents. There are references to household chores, such as doing laundry, and to sports events, like the Olympics. The song seems to question the motivations behind people’s actions and criticize the idea that people are motivated by flashy colors and packaged deals. The refrain “John” and the lines “Turn to the sun and finally awake / Prisons / Turned a noble act of welcoming the rotten” are repeated in the chorus. The meaning of the song is somewhat abstract and may require additional context to fully understand. | |||
