Lyrics
Who's looking for the guilty party
Questioning who is responsible for a situation
Who's gonna stick the blame on you
Asking who will be held accountable
He's angry cause you look so arty
Someone is upset because of the artistic appearance
Playing peek-a-boo
Playing a game of hide and seek
No sticky gonna stop him from smiling through
Unaffected by obstacles, maintaining a positive attitude
And he's a great dictator
Describing a person with authoritative tendencies
He'll bring you in for questioning sooner or late
Suggesting potential interrogation in the future
Stop him if you can (hold the door)
Encouraging to stop the person's entry
No don't let him in
Advising against allowing the person in
Head down and running towards you
Someone approaching with determination
He won't feel a thing when he thunders through
Implying insensitivity or indifference
Leadhead why did you do it when the door was open
Questioning the motivation behind a certain action
We were only playing on the inside
Recalling a playful activity within confined spaces
Leadhead you beat on the glass until it broke
Describing aggressive behavior resulting in breaking glass
Then fell in the hall still looking for more
After breaking in, still seeking more
Still looking for more
Reiteration of the quest for more
He get's a feeling and he must control it
Feeling a need for control and acting against desires
Instead of doing what he wanted to
Choosing not to pursue personal goals
He's got the ball but he just won't roll it
Having opportunities but not taking advantage of them
Playing better than you
Playing skillfully but not progressing
He keeps saying every word that he speaks is true
Insisting on the truthfulness of every spoken word
But he's a great dictator
Reiterating authoritative qualities
He's coming in for questioning sooner or later
Anticipating future questioning by authority
Here he comes again (hold the door)
Warning about the person's imminent arrival
Oh no he's ignoring the danger signs
Ignoring signs of danger
Look out mother he's gathering speed
Alerting someone about the person gaining speed
Leadhead why did you do it when the door was open
Questioning a questionable action when there was an opportunity
We were only playing on the outside
Reflecting on playing outside, contrasting with inside
Leadhead you beat on the glass until it broke
Describing aggressive behavior with glass-breaking
Then fell in the street still looking for more
Falling in the street, still pursuing more
(Inside your head)
Reference to inner thoughts and possibilities
Inside your head is what you might have been
Imagining an alternate self within the mind
Have you a picture of a friend in your soft machinery
Questioning if there's a mental image of a friend
Now who's a great dictator (leadhead).
Reiterating authoritative qualities with the term "leadhead"
