This came to me in an odd way, I was flickin thru the channels on TV I heard the words 4 degrees and I stopped and it was on a surgery/medicine show talking about advancements in technolgy ... old methods of surgery doctors had 4 degrees of freedom(movement), new technology gives them 7 degrees so I immediatly thought of this song and figured out what it means to me. but that's about where the similarity ends. The lyrics talk about freeing yourself and doign what you want with what you got, the lyrics are fairly broad and the message is clear - FREEDOM

The anal cavity is 4 degrees higher in temperature than the vagina. Truthfully, that is what this song is "supposed to be" about.

Okay, I read what Zaq said, and then checked out the song very closely. The lyrics paint the pictures in your imagination. I would have to agree that this song is about the first time a person(presumably a woman) receives anal penetration...

Like many other Tool songs, Maynard James Keenan writes songs with 2 meanings. One, the obvious is about anal sex (like Stinkfist is about anal fisting). The butt is both tighter and 4 degrees warmer. But there is some metaphoric purpose that the song expresses, which could be a variety of things. Free thinking, searching for yourself and finding something strong/great/whatever inside your mind. Or maybe questioning authority or conventional ideas; Such as anal sex, an act most people are against, and embracing it to find it may be better than conventional "sex".

I agree with #1 and #3. A lot of Tool songs have 2 or more meanings (interpret as you will) I think it does have to do with exploring that part of yourself. lose yourself in the amazing moment of sex and experience something you didn't know you had in you. right along with meaning number 2. Freedom in a way. There is something in us all that is being suppressed, like a clam beneath castles. Let's go digging and see what we are really capable without fear.
