Re: Devo "H" Keenan

i didn't read all the posts here, but i've gained a new insight towards the song I think from reading certain posts.

i just wanted to say that the whole "considerately killing me" line, in context with the rest of the song, and the overall theme of change, could lend itself to the meaning of Death in the tarot. Death doesn't necessarily mean the death of one's self, the death of a habit, death of an attitude, etc.

if we're talking good and evil, the snake could be killing him just the same, but what's being held up could kill him in a truly considerate (positive) way.

interesting. I've never really thought of the song this way before. good stuff
