Tool - Maynard's Dick Song MeaningsLyrics:It's all an open center Opens up and lets the wind lift him away It doesn't have to feel water It's just a place that feels right with him... (See the rest of these lyrics) Submitted by: anonymous Added: 2006-01-23 13:44:36 Rating:  It's about the great mind of Maynard's dick.
Submitted by: anonymous Its about Maynard having sex
Submitted by: Mrb I agree with the general "having sex" theory. But I think that, as in songs like Stinkfist, there is a moral questioning behind this song. One of the things I noted was that the sexual imagery in the line "kind of like the way you're breathing" (ie. panting, as in sex) is immediately followed by the line "kind of like the way you keep looking away" (as in disgust). This seems to suggest to me that the "receiver" of Maynard's Dick recognises that although she is getting pleasure out of it, she is disgusted by the man psychologically and may have morally compromised herself by engaging in sex with him. Maybe the dick is symbolic of a celebrities (or anyone's) ego. Because of the arrogance of the man with the sizable penis (and consequently, ego) the woman (or whoever) is disgusted by the man. But when it comes down to testing her morals against her more carnal instincts, she ends up giving in to sexual gratification over moral standards. All she can do to keep herself from the reality her own hypocracy is to look away.
Submitted by: anonymous It's funny to see how so many people try to attach a vague meaning to something so obviously written as a joke. The band was named "Tool" after people like that.
Submitted by: anonymous Every song has a meaning. What, did you actually think Tool just pulled this one right out of their ass?
Submitted by: anonymous yea.
Submitted by: sazza I'm pretty sure it's open for interpretation guys... :]
Submitted by: anonymous All Tool songs have subjective meanings. The name "Tool" represents what they want to be; a tool for using one's imagination or triggering our spiritual divinity. You can think it's a joke, just as everyone else can make their own personal interpretation. That's the whole point. To think of the infinite possibilities.
Submitted by: anonymous This song is very obviously a joke. It was released very early in their career. They were probably just throwing something together to get used to playing with each other.
Submitted by: anonymous He was a comedian after all...
