Korn - Twisted Transistor Meaning

Song Released: 2005
Twisted Transistor Lyrics
Listening to your Twisted Transistor
Hold it between your legs
Turn it up, turn it up
The wind is coming through
Can't get enough
A lonely life, where no one understands you
But don't give up,...

This song is not about transistors. It is about the life that women who spend their lives at concerts and clubs lead.
there is a comparison between 2 things here: the music, and the transistor. The woman is a socket (or whatever, I don't now the elictrical term) and the music is the transistor. a transistor is something that you INSERT, thus the line:Hold it between your legs." the "wind" is that windy sound that amps make when you plug in a guitar cable. It is all a sexual allusion.
"A lonely life, where no one understands you
But don't give up, because the music do "
this shows the lonely life that these girls lead, where they think that no one loves them. a lot of people submit themselves totally to music becuase they have no one else to submit to (fall in love with).
"Your scream's a whisper"
as the music gets louder, which is what she wants (eg, turn it up! turn it up!) it eventually consumes her, and gets so loud that her screams are drowned out.
"And as your tears fall on
Your breast, your dress
Vibrations coming through "
this part talks about how she has become part of the music, and ceases to exist. It is like when you put a liquid in another liquid: it becomes part of the other liquid. Her tears give proof to this. Sound makes vibrations, and because her tears make vibrations, that means that she is sound itself, she ceases to exist.
i don't understand this part :
"Hey you, hey you, this won't hurt a bit
This won't hurt a bit, this won't hurt
Says who? Says who?
Anesthetize this bitch
Anesthetize this bitch, anesthetize!
Just let me be
Between you and me don't fit "
maybe someone can fill me in -
In the words of monkey, the song is about transistors. That's all I know lol.
