Kangaroo Pot

[EleventhEye]

this song refers to 'Kangaroo', as in kangaroo court, which as far as I know means a "show trial", or a trial that is set up so as to superficially resemble a real trial but whose outcome is already determined.

This song has many references to the judicial process:
"burn the evidence down"

" liar, lawyer, mirror show me
what's the difference? "

"kangaroo be stoned, he's guilty
ask the government "

et cetera.

By the way, anyone have any idea what "pissed all over my black kettle" means? (if the lyrics I have are right, from the Winamp plugin)

- Saw that phrase more of just a reference to a pot calling a kettle black. In other words, hypocrisy.

- I looked up kangaroo trial and came up with something similar, being a trial set up for someone (usually pre-determined) due to a direct refusal to obey orders.

Niiice on the pot calling the kettle black. Didn't even think of it.

[ljasonl]

Good catch, I was wondering what the hell he was talking about with a kangaroo

i fucking wish we could get that one line right. it is definately not weeping shades of frozen indigo lemon juice etc.

Pretty sure the lemon juice up in your eye part is correct, referring to the weeping in the previous line being fake. Fits with the hypocrite/liar theme. Dunno what comes after weeping in that line though.

Sounds like "Your weeping tears are chosen ... Got lemon juice up in your eye" to me. Fake tears fit with the liar/hypocrite theme pretty well. Can't decipher the last part of the first line though.

[insaner]

i think we are way off.

[thejesus]

great find...I'm a law student and probably should have known that but didn't...lol

[Supergroup]

It's about that camel-fucker over in Iraq.

[prometheus jones]

Real quick...just off of 3 listens...I am relating this song to 9/11 and Katrina...an upcoming trial putting a certain american figure head on trial for crimes against his own people...a kangaroo court...the illusion of democracy continues...

Kangaroos and kettles.

Makes it as easy as chakras and eggs of satan.

[eksyte]

Sweet. I was wondering what the term "kangarooed" meant.

Along with the BS with current events, I can see this song being about fuckwads who start bullshit "debates" when they're not willing to entertain certain ideas or be a little open-minded. (They appear to be discussing the topic, but they've already made up their mind.)

yep I agree with this one.

[Seethus]

I agree, I think this is about hypocracy. eg 'pot calling the kettle black'

[OneEru]

hey. so im a sociology prof. and i do research on drugs and so i thought i would just put this out there and see what you guys thought.... so like, the pot calling the kettle black maybe they're talking about the hypocracy of making a drug like marijuana illegal but not alcohol or coffee.... i dunno. thats what i got.

This song is defintely about hypocricy, not weed. The only thing that refers to weed is the "Must've been high" line. Probably did that for glazed over stoner kids. "The Pot" as in the pot calling the kettle black..."...pissed all over my black kettle."

[erazorhead]

i wonder if i'll feel like a moron being "high" at the concert.

Both.

Anyways, good find on the kangaroo'd thing guys.

[Ozzzy_SS]

"Steal, borrow, refer, save your shady inference
Kangaroo done hung the juror with the innocent

Now will you weep or, chase the chosen into golden images up in your eye"

Those are the lyrics, where the hell did yall get lemon juice from?
