Cracker Lyrics
Through four albums, the creative core behind Cracker
remains unchanged: Lowery (ex-Camper Van Beethoven) sings
lead on most songs and plays rhythm guitar; Johnny Hickman
plays lead guitar and sings lead and background. Both men
write the songs, sometimes together, sometimes
individually.
Debut single "The Good Life" introduces Gentleman's Blues:
its 16 tracks include some loud songs ("Seven Days," "The
World Is Mine," "Waiting For You Girl," "Wild One"), quiet
songs ("Hallelujah," "James River," the title track
"Gentleman's More...

Review about Cracker songs
"just one rose, it knows your name.." | Reviewer: Trace Tracy
------ About the song Low performed by CrackerPretty sure that's referencing the "bloom" when you're veining it. That's how you know you've hit the vein, by the "rose red bloom" of blood you pull back before pushin in. And, "knows your name"? Yuh, all it really takes is one first successful fix and that shit will be callin your name the rest of your life...even if you quit. Bangin anything is a horrible addiction, 'cause it's not just the drug...it's the love of the needle. Just throwing that bullshit out there, like anyone really cares...amIrite?! Junkie trivia! Good stuff.
D'oh! | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Low performed by CrackerThis song is a total reference to heroin use, addiction, and withdrawal. As well as the symptoms that follow including twisted perception and desire. Most references are obvious such as "her" which IS heroin. When talking about fruits rusting on the vine and calling for trees he is referencing the time since his last fix feels as if the fruit of the poppy is rusting. He can hear it calling his name. He has guilt until he uses it and then he's a million miles away like a (junkie) cosmonaut. "One rose and it knows your name" symbolizes that with a single use of the poppy's flower and "she" has got you. Basically the only woman referred to in this song is lady H herself.
Being with you girl. | Reviewer: Slave!!!!
------ About the song Low performed by CrackerThis song is totally about a heroin addiction,.... When he makes a reference to being with her its her,... her but her as lady heroin or woman super hero. You would think its a love song its,....just it his love of the high the feeling of it.....
(is) like being low | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Low performed by CrackerI thought I had remembered the lyrics as being
"Being with you girl, is like being low,
Hey hey hey, (its) like being stoned"
and thought it was about the way a particular person is making one feel
yet I may have had the lyrics wrong from all that time ago.

Bible refrence etc | Reviewer: michael
------ About the song Low performed by CrackerI believe he is trying to convince a virgin to do heroin and have sex with him when he says
"A million poppies gonna make me sleep.
But just one rose it knows your name
The fruit is rusting on the vine
The fruit is calling from the trees"
the first line is a referance to heroine, the second to her "flower" aka v-card,
the third is to how she wants to have sex but her "fruit" is still on the "tree",
the forth line is refuring to adham and eve by saying he "fruit" is "calling" or her sexual instincts are being excited relating sex to eve's disobedience to God due to her temptations :P
Stone! | Reviewer: zack
------ About the song Low performed by CrackerIf you get the correct lyrics he is saying stone. Like I will be with you girl like being low hey hey like being stone. As in together all the way. There for her. I think it has some drug reference in it too. At least get the lyrics right.

------ About the song Teen Angst (What The World Needs Now) performed by CrackerI'm 62 and this song rocks me, come on all you old timers get out of that old 60's stuff and listen to music as it comes year after year; always new music comin. This one rocks and has great lyrics. thanks
Twisted Lyrics has you all confused | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Low performed by CrackerAfter reading all the reviews most of you think its just about doing drugs, well every song has a drug reference in them, like the Beatles "Hey Jude" is suppose to be about heroin, its also suppose to be about a person. So this is one of them twisted songs, you can think its about being on drugs or think about it as in love with a woman you can't have, or both twisted together. Its still a love song. Some think its love for drugs or in love for a woman... its a twisted love song and you have the right to believe either side because its meant to go both ways depending if your a junkie or just unlucky at love. Twisted love songs are also top sellers and that is why its meant to go both ways.
old but hrmm | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Low performed by CrackerIf you listen to this song then read the lyrics then relisten and the watch the video you will realize that this song is about one of 2 things :
Either his drug addiction and what it has done to him and his life and how it makes him feel or it's about a woman but on the same level.
As in she is no good for him , brings him down and treats him like shit ... but he suffers through it for some moment of bliss at some point.
Although I don't think it's about a woman.. I think "she" is heroin and that he refers to himself in the 3rd person ... the song is like him talking with the "drug" and it talking back to him ... the battle of any addict.
Although I still think it's best to have your own meaning and relationship with a song vs what it really was intended to convey... but usually your self thought meaning will be pretty accurate to the real message just may be applied slightly different..
Either way this is still a great song and I miss the era and all the other good music that came along with it.. Music now days is so boring .. so bland .. so unoriginal and so garbage... I guess I finally understand what my Dad hears in all that music he enjoys so much : )
