Eulorgy tool lyricsx12/19/2023 it\'s right there beside alice in chains for me. i was 13 or 14 when this album came out though. i think their newer music is mostly better, but it doesn\'t affect me the same emotionally at all. James was so aggressive on these two albums man and they have always been my favorite just because of that, even though they did a lot more interesting, creative, fun concepts in their later stuff. anyway, i wanted to come and add a little of what this song makes me feel like or whatever. "stinkfist" isn\'t about fingering someone\'s butthole. i\'m pretty damn sure that nearly the first two whole albums are perverted as hell now that i\'ve seen what\'s come since then. i don\'t understand why you started your comment by half-way insinuating that you disagree that the topic of this track uses a ton of thinly veiled metaphors for various sexual acts and organs? \r\n\r\nseems a little odd to me. \r\n\r\nthe infant before him being a direct metaphor for masturbation, among other things. This song without a doubt is directly referring to the gory details of intercourse, masturbation, guilt, genitals. He holds THE GRUDGE and wheres it like a crown. Maynard disagrees with this at the time this song was written. Jesus was abused in some of the most wicked ways and yet, he forgave all those who maimed him. It's an image that tells him to love those who have wronged him (forgive them), an image that dictates the way he SHOULD (whether the right way or the wrong way) live his life but that he can't face up to because it is just to painful. The infant haunts him.it's an image that stays with him always, partly from what was preached to him. He associates a harmless, loving, defenseless infant with himself as a child, but he still hates himself for letting that abuse happen.he wants to get away from himself and that time in his life. The ideas and values preached to a young Maynard really confused him because of the abusive relationship his stepfather (the one who was preaching) had with him. The infant mentioned in the song is in part himself in his youth and representative of the infant Jesus Christ. Pushit simply has to do with Maynard's internal struggle with his past and that of religion (Christian Baptist in particular). General CommentI can't believe everyone is obsessed with sex so 's true, some (very few, in fact, of maynard's TOOL songs have to do with sex.many more of his apc have to do with sex) TOOL songs have to do with sex as a metaphor or as an abuse (prison sex), etc., but most of Maynard's songs have intellectual meaning, philisophical meanings, ideological meanings.as does pushit. ![]() If when I say I might fade like a sigh if I stay You're pushing and shoving and scrambling You'd better take care not to make me enterīut I'd trade it all for just a little peace of mind You still love me but you didn't need to shit on me You must be crucified For your sins and your lies.You know that I will choke until I swallow We need the fuckin space to nail the next fool martyr. Why then are you so surprised to hear your own eulogy? You had alot to say. You’ve claimed all this time that you would die for me. Will you? Will you now? Would you die for me? Don’t you fuckin lie. Standing above the crowd, He had a voice so strong and loud and I Swallowed his facade cuz I’m so Eager to identify with Someone above the ground, Someone who seemed to feel the same, Someone prepared to lead the way, with Someone who would die for me. You took a stand on every little thing And so loud. No way to recall What it was that you had said to me, Like I care at all. Ranting and pointing his finger At everything but his heart. Standing above the crowd, He had a voice that was strong and loud. You told us how you weren’t afraid to die.
