It makes It's So Easy ("turn around bitch, I got a use for you!") look like nothing!

Quote
Thrown down in the gutter, it?s more than you deserve
Kneeling fucking virgin, you know that's what you are
Pussy for a maggot, isn't that a shock
What can I do?
With a BITCH LIKE YOU!!

Yowsa.

Think maybe Chris was having some hard times with the ladies when he wrote that one??  Shocked

I know GN'R have been accused of sexually degrading lyrics in the past, but I think Silkworms takes the cake.

What do you think?  Huh

I've never been bothered by the lyrics in It's So Easy because they were kids when they wrote that. When young guys get together they can tend to say some pretty sexually-degrading things sometimes.

It's one of the best new songs when performed live though.

This isn't really a thread for feedback on if you like the song, though; I was just curious to see what people consider to be the most misogynist song by the Guns. I think most people would probably agree it's Silkworms, but it's never been discussed before to my knowledge.  Huh

yeah, it does sound pretty misogynistic.  but you never know, it could be metaphors, it could be about how that kind of stuff is bad.  you never know?

i like the song in a strange way though.

Those lyrics seem off... I always thought it was Pussy full of maggots, isn't it absurd.

It is. I copied those from another site. I missed the typo they had.

I like the song structure- the quiet part in the middle in the place of where a typical guitar solo would go.

i think that you just learned the word "misogynistic", and wanted to use it in a sentence and make friends.  Cool

Yes it is.

Ludicrous lyrics aside, I really like the song musically. Maybe bits and pieces of it will show up on the album somewhere.

When you open the can of worms, expect the discussion to expand.

btw Don't self moderate. We have people in the forum with that responsibility.

Back Off Bitch probably was, but now Silkworms takes the cake. No doubt about it.

Very misogynistic, but I still think the title ruler is Back Off Bitch.

"Pussy full of maggots" is one of my favorite lines ever in a song. That's a classic line and a dirty one at that. Hmmmm... Pussy full of maggots... Makes ya kind of horny doesn't it??

yeah, the lyrics are crude and IMO I hate this song.
It's so Easy is one of my fav gnr songs, and for me, I interpret "bitch" as male or female (although generally used for women)

generally I love gnr lyrics, but this one sounds really lame.

Was Dizzy involved in writing this song as well?

Your first verse is wrong.

Silkworms


Listen mother fuckers to this song that should be heard
Dragged down in the gutters, it?s more than you deserve
Screamin fucking banchee, you know that's what you are
Pussy full of maggots, isn't that a shock

What can I do
With a bitch like you
You know that it?s true
All I have
I ask you
I'll be dammed with a bitch like you
With a bitch like you

Get your head down out of the stars
Fucking little schemer got yourself a broken heart
Syphilitic priestess, baby I know who you are
Parasitic demon sucking acid through your heart


What can I do
With a bitch like you
You know that it?s true
All I have
I ask you
I'll be dammed with a bitch like you
A bitch like you

This is for BabyGorilla and the people like him.
Before all my posts about subjective matters there should be an IMO before the post. I took this sig down but of course it has to go back up.
