| To finger paint is not a sin (art is a sin, nor is expresng yourself) I put my middle finger in Your monthly blood is what I win (love and sex is nothing more than a game, and the prize for winning is sex) I'm in your house now let me spin (I think this is talking about the fact that they are going out so she shouldn't stop with the lovin) python power straight from Monty (Monty Python, this could just be talking about an experiance the someone had) Celluliod loves got a John Frusciante (maybe John is into freaky love making) Spread your head and spread the blanket She’s too free I’m the patient (he tried to open her mind to new things in bed, she liked it and cought up in it and h went along with it) Black and white red and blue Things that look good on you (she looked good in black, white, red, and bue) And if I scream don’t let me go (they got into bondage and he likes the pain and doesn't want the sex to stop because he's screaming) And purple stain-I know (I haven't figured out what the purple stain is yet) Knock on wood we all stay good ‘Cause we all live in Hollywood With Dracula and Darla Hood (they asume that life will be good as long as thier living in hollywood, and they knocking on wood so they don't jinx it) Unspoken words were understood (they have an understanding about what goes on in the bed room) Up to my ass in alligators Let’s get it on with alligator haters (alligators are the people who are into freaky sex and the alligator haters are the people who don't understand it, the want to try and change there minds) Did what you did-did what you said What’s the point yo what’s the spread (the people trying to stop did what they said they were going to do, but it didn't make a difference so there was no point to doing it) All if I call you to stay Come hit the funk on your way (if he calls her back when she is leaving, it's because he wants one last kiss) It’s the way out there but I don’t care ‘Cause this is where- I go (other people find his life style weird, but he likes it and it's where he goes to get away from his proplems) It’s way out there But I don’t care ‘Cause this is what I want to wear (his life style is weird but he dosen't care) Feather light but you can’t move this (he is light hearted, but you can't change what is in his hart) Farley is and angel and I can prove this Purple stain upon my pillow (this women was a gift from God for him and the purple stain is his profe) Let’s sleep weeping willow (he feels at peace when he is with her) thats what I think of the song anyway sorry about the spelling mistakes. | |

| It's a double meaning, the purple stain left on your pillow by an ex. hair dye...and looking at the song i'm pretty sure you can guess the other meaning Anthony said this himself in an interview.. | |

| Even though this song has perverted intents, its cool cause the purple stain thing has a lot to do with my hair that left a purple stain on an exes pillow. | |

| From Anthony's mouth itself: "purple stain refers to a double entendre of a girl's hair dye staining your pillow and a girl's menstrual flow staining your everything." | |
