Jack Johnson: Taylor Meaning
Song Released: 2004
Taylor Lyrics
complain, express ideas in her brain.
Working on the night shift, passing out the tickets,
You're gonna have to pay her if you want to park here.
Well mommy's little dancer is quite a...

I always thought that the song was about a prostitute. "Gonna have to pay her if you want to park here" makes it seem like she's in a parking booth. But "giving what you got to give to get a dollar bill" makes me think that she is a prostitute. I don't know about it though...

I think the most over looked thing is the whole thing with Sunny's silhouette. I don't think that sunny is a person but is instead symbolic for heaven. Heaven won't let him in because he has been with Taylor. The break lights are on means that his journey to heaven is being stopped because of his visits with Taylor. singing on Sunday is an obvious reference to church. He thinks that going to church will alow him to get to heaven even though he is with taylor. Last thing is that Hawaii is 2000 miles from the mainland u.s, so he is probably referring to Hawaii as where she is imagining herself.

I always thought she was a hooker, "mommy's little dancer is quite a little secret, working on the streets now, never gonna keep it"
But I like #2's version much better. Except, what does verse three have to do with any of this? I don't think that #2 quite has the ending right... -
I don't think it's her dance performances...."you're gonna have to pay here if you wanna park here." Parking lot in the city? That's what I thought, anyways.....

# 2 is totally right
-
This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway
