Red Hot Chili Peppers - Mellowship Slinky in B Major Meaning

Mellowship Slinky in B Major Lyrics

I've got a mellowship, I've got a fellowship
I've got a nonstop "yo swan" hello chip
Born to adore the big bad bison
Thunderstorm and a man like Tyson
Popcorn peanuts lookin' at big butts
No I can not keep my mouth shut
Rockin' to the beat...

   Anthony mainly wrote about the things he likes, being with his friends, writing music, reading different things, the Lakers, etc. He also refers to famous celebrities and influent people such as Robert De Niro and Mark Twain, obviously a writing inspiration to him. He refers to some other Chili's songs such as True Men Don't Kill Coyotes, Me and My friends, etc; and some other tunes like Sex Machine by James Brown, a huge influence in funk music, or Hendrix's "Purple Haze". There are references to sex through the whole song, as in the whole album, as well as "love" and "brotherhood".

   This song is about th band and its songs. It says "me my friends and the Sex machine" referring to Sir Physco Sexy and My Friends (yes I know my friends was released after, yet they could have written it before.) They also say Sing a song about what true men don't do/given another creature that's kind of blue/ rhyming about the world of the wild coyote/Goman Truman Capote. The 1st and 3rd lines referring to to true men don't kill coyotes.

   This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway
