• A Man With A PlanJust love it for what it was is.
• Real Question from CanadaThis appeared on a Canadian mixed cd in the 90s called 'Hard Rock' -does anyone know the whole album list?
• Lucifer The Light from ErrrrwhereI know Danzig personally. I was the inspiration for the song. It is about the gift I gave those who decide to follow me. If you want to know just ask me and it will be given to you. All knowledge and all truth come from me. Beauty and happiness.
• Graham from Astral Plane One reason you may think Danzig sounds or reminds you of Jim Morrison and the Doors both talked about death and the darker side of the human psyche also both r rock roll blues type rock although in many ways they r quite different.
• Anupam from Los Angeles, CaI can hear so much bitterness, and repressed anger in this song. Clearly the singer is rebelling and telling his elders to essentially part ways with him and totally leave him alone - don't try to convince him - don't try to change him - don't share him any of their "light or wisdom" or face his anger ... And if they want to find hell with him , he is not going hold anything back!
  
  
• Alana from Saint Paul, MnThis song is a mixture of being about censoring music and the PMRC stuff happening at the time it was written, as well as how parents are always trying to shelter children and teens far too much. That dark things, and evil are parts of life, metal and rock music are real life, and you cannot try to tell children to simply not see it or hear it. Using examples of the guy taking out the girl and he may be someone like Glenn,and her mother tried to stop her from going.
• David from London, United KingdomYou know, while there are many interpretations, we can all agree that it's about an unfortunate event that has to do with bringing up or somehow links with his family. Maybe he had underage sex and got a girl pregnant. Maybe he took drugs at some point in his life. He commited robbery, vandalism, or whatever, and is singing to all parents to not let their children 'walk my way' and repeat the same mistakes that he had made. But pretty awesome song though, especially fun hearing it on GTA.
• Mike from Helena, MtThis song is actually about the Parental Advisory label that the PMRC created in 1985 for music containing content which may be seen as inappropriate. It is a protest song.
• Timothy Mcgee from Bethesda, MdDanzig does sound like the late Jim Morrison on this song. In "Mother" he is warning that parents should keep their children safe. Danzig is trying to sound "evil" by talking about hell and all that kind of stuff.
• Khlystimetal from Siberia, Russia FederationIt is obvious, he es evil o he thinks he is evil and prevents mothers and fathers in general that evil is outside, but it is sort of a mocking he does not prevent it for good, it is mocking of overprotective parents
• Fozzy from Phoenix, AzThe meaning of the lyrics are crystal clear. "Mother" is about coming-of-age. In a world where rites-of-passage no longer exist, the song speaks of a young man coming into his own. He is ready to face the real world and break free of the candy-coated illusion presented by his parents all his life.
  
  The friction between mother and child can be seen in lines such as "Tell not to hold my hand. Tell your children not to understand." In other lines he declares his independence and dominion, saying, "Father, do you want to bang heads with me? Do you want to feel everything?" This line comes right after declaring, "Gonna take your daughter out tonight:. The meaning here is very clear in that he is taking someone's virgin daughter out on a date and intends to make her a woman, or in other words "show her my world".
• Chuck from Kewaskum, WiWhat I got from the song is different than everything here. I think that it's kinda saying that you can say all you want about how I live my life and you can go ahead and call me evil and a sinner for my choices, but it's just as much of a sin to hide your children from the truth and not allow them to choose God, your life style or whatever. "Not about to see your light, and if you wanna find hell with me, I can show oyu what it's like"
• Bella from Pretoria, --The vocals remind me a lot of The Doors.Sounds like Jim Morrison put in a different band.
• Billy from Cresco, PaThe song is badass either way.
• Byron from San Antonip, TxWhat its really about is he is a badass and he want the good girl,(gona take your daughter out tonight) the dad of the girl doesn't want it to happen and he will fight him for her( wana bang heads with me) he is bad and corrupted so he warns other parents to keep other away from him ....kinda reminds me of the 1950's guys who rode Motorcycles being hard asses swooping up the cheerleader girls away from the quater backs
• Jeff from Austin, TxThe lyrics to this song are pretty vague, but like all Danzig's songs, it's evil as well as vague. This song is basically about innocent children being seduced by something or someone evil. Whether it's Satan himself, or just a guy trying to score with some chick. It's just referring to the loss of innocence.
• Bella from PretoriaI got the idea that it's about someone else's parents that are overprotective about their children knowing him,("gonna take your daughter out tonight","tell your children not to walk my way,...hear my words" etc),rather than Cristian's fact.Hey,I'm the first person to comment here,I'm honored.
