Sometimes I will look up the lyrics to a song on Genius to make sure I get them right. I really enjoy the annotations on some of them. For instance, the annotations on "Big Bottom" by Spinal Tap:

When he is in her the fit is snug, as if wearing a perfectly tailored piece of eveningwear. However, if she were a battleship, it would be his flesh-colored member that would send her to the bottom of the ocean.

Anybody have their own favorite annotations? They don't all have to be silly. For example, there's an annotation on the lyrics to Talking Heads' "Life During Wartime" that I found really insightful and has stuck with me since.

oh, also, shout-outs to chujfugh, who provided a transfem reading of the "but it's all right, god dug your dance" verse of "My Human Gets Me Blues". it was nice to hear that i wasn't the only person who found that to be a possible interpretation of that verse.
