Sublime Lyrics

    ------ About the song Santeria performed by Sublime

What he is saying is that he KNOWS she is cheating on him- he doesn't NEED the Santeria or a crystal ball to figure it out, and he would be willing to bet a million dollars that he's right- that's how SURE he is that he's right.

I'm pretty sure that' I don't practice Santeria' then ' I ain't got no crystal ball' and 'i had a million dollars but I , I'd spend it all. ' simply means he'll handle it his own .... He don't need this or this ... And he wouldn't spend a million to get her back . The guys bangin his girl and well he's got his own way to handle his shit. His .45 . Just one of those great chill smokin songs , eh, Haha !

    ------ About the song Santeria performed by Sublime

He says "I don't practice Santeria, I ain't got no crystal ball" Wasn't saying people who do practice Santeria use crystal balls. He's saying he doesn't practice Santeria and he also has no crystal ball. Calm down before you get your testicles in a knot.

    ------ About the song Santeria performed by Sublime

hey to the person who thinks the line is offensive boo fuckin hoo get used to it. Christians both protestant and catholic and just about any other major religions are offended daily by people who don't accept their beliefs. Get used to it and deal with it, and to correct you; you might not use crystal balls correct but that doesn't mean that older generations didn't use them so don't open your mouth unless you have defenitive proof. Also shut up and enjoy the song, you have made yourself look like a complete jackass on the internet by saying a half a lyric offended you.

    ------ About the song New Song performed by Sublime

some of them are wrong its...

He who stands for freedom

But I know I wont live for me

You know I did that line for Flava Flav

Saw you with a gleam,
And the micraphone scene

and

"T" here stands for treason
"D" here stands for Dove

    ------ About the song Perfect World performed by Sublime

This song is about crack and the insanity of life. Yeah, that's right, I've smoked crack and shot smack, and overdosed on a mixture of tranquilizers and heroin...I just got found in time not to die. But that's not what I like about Sublime or this song, being an ex-junky grants me no connection.

I think we can all agree he liked to encourage marijuana and both verses in this song are derogatory to whatever he's referencing. And glass dick is a reference to a crack pipe. I suspect it's an auto-biographical song, I mean look at STP, he talks about the paranoia of knowing the police are watching him and out to get him. Even when using and in the midst of paranoia--much less the next day--you have some idea of how ridiculous your ideas are, it's just more like a hyper-vigilant state of "better safe than sorry" or the possible worst case scenario.

So he's talking about being crazy and knowing it on some level but then looking around at the world and seeing how fucked-up it is and not caring and thus continuing the insanity because what other option is there? Quit self medicating and be attuned to all the real misery of the world or continue using and living in a deluded state where the problems are imaginary. After all, it's a perfect world. Why not?

    ------ About the song Pool Shark performed by Sublime

I'm not trying to put down brad he was an absolutely amazing musician and this song is very sad and I listen to it everyday but that one quote "One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain" isn't Bradley. Trenchtown Rock was a Bob Marley cover, though a great cover.

    ------ About the song 40 Oz to Freedom performed by Sublime

1) You CAN buy beer at the Liquor store. The only 40 oz you can buy at the liquor store for a few bucks is BEER.
2) Liquor store sells nachos?
3) He has a whole other nacho in the freezer?
4) Beer is alcohol.
5) He totally digs perms.
6) Who gives a damn? I give a damn!
7) Yes, because you didn't know this stuff DOES make you a lesser person than MEEEEE. muwhaha.

    ------ About the song 40 Oz to Freedom performed by Sublime

40 oz is the exact weight of a nacho with chili and cheese from am/pm, he is hungry and needs a nacho to cheer him up. Everyone from california loves nachos. And he does not like the girl, she has a perm, who gets a perm after 1987? No one this dude would be with.

    ------ About the song Pool Shark performed by Sublime

I spent an entire car ride today replaying this song over and over. There was something about it that just called out to me. (live version) So I came home to look it up and found the other reviews. I must say that It all makes sense. Its true that his pain just engulfs you. I now realize that its the utter simplicity and rawness that makes this song the way it is.

Its true that he was an amazing singer and writer. He was real. That is what I'll miss most about him. Not trying to cover up who he is. He wore his problems on his sleeve for us all to learn from. RIP BN.
