No No No
A-Bomb and the Destroyers Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I remember a flash of neon
Then after the memory is gone
I was abducted by something strange
And sanity was out of range
I fell down into a rabbit hole
And the ticket price was my soul
Thinking that I would be saved
I fell into something depraved

Why do I do these things to me?
I got no money, I got no memory
Why do I do these things to me?
I got no money, I got no memory
I wonder where did last night go
Was it the juice or the snow?
For why I now feel this numb
Last night's pandemonium
I get flashbacks to top hats and snakes
And people swimming in bloodfilled lakes
I wondered where I did intrude
As I heard 'you'll beg for lube'
Why do I do these things to me?
I got no money, I got no memory
Why do I do these things to me?
I got no money, I got no memory
Neon turns to hellfire
Bringing out the sinners and liars
You become the last to see
Comedy turn to tragedy
Why do I do this to me?
I got no money, no memory
I got no money, I got no memory
I got no money, I got no memory

I got no money, I got no memory
I got no money, I got no memory

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to A-Bomb and the Destroyers' song "No no no" explores themes of self-destructive behavior and memory loss. The opening lines describe a surreal experience of being abducted by something bizarre and losing touch with sanity. The singer then reflects on their own self-destructive tendencies, wondering why they continuously subject themselves to reckless behavior despite having no money and no memory. The chorus repeats this sentiment, emphasizing the feeling of being lost and out of control.

The second half of the song takes a darker turn, referencing disturbing hallucinations involving top hats, snakes, and blood-filled lakes. The singer's confusion and fear are palpable as they try to piece together what happened the night before. The final verse describes a sense of impending doom as the neon turns to hellfire, ushering in sinners and liars. The repeated refrain of "I got no money, no memory" serves as a haunting reminder of the consequences of recklessness and self-destruction.

Overall, "No no no" is a cautionary tale about the dangers of losing control and the importance of taking responsibility for one's actions. The vivid imagery and intense emotions make for a powerful and thought-provoking song.

Line by Line Meaning

I remember a flash of neon
I have a vague memory of bright, flashing lights

Then after the memory is gone
But then I can't recall anything after that

I was abducted by something strange
I was taken by something unfamiliar

And sanity was out of range
I lost my sense of rationality

I fell down into a rabbit hole
I metaphorically fell into a state of confusion

And the ticket price was my soul
I metaphorically paid a high price for this confusion

Thinking that I would be saved
I naively thought something good would come out of it

I fell into something depraved
But instead, I ended up in something morally corrupt

Why do I do these things to me?
I question my own decisions

I got no money, I got no memory
I am broke and can't remember what happened

I wonder where did last night go
I am confused about what happened last night

Was it the juice or the snow?
I wonder if it was the drinks or the drugs

For why I now feel this numb
I am now feeling emotionally numb

Last night's pandemonium
The chaos of last night

I get flashbacks to top hats and snakes
I have unpleasant memories of strange things

And people swimming in bloodfilled lakes
I recall disturbing images of violence and gore

I wondered where I did intrude
I wonder where I got involved

As I heard 'you'll beg for lube'
I heard something inappropriate

Neon turns to hellfire
The bright lights turn into something dangerous

Bringing out the sinners and liars
Revealing those who are immoral and deceitful

You become the last to see
I am the last one to recognize what is happening

Comedy turns to tragedy
What was once funny now turns dark and sad

Why do I do this to me?
I keep putting myself in these situations

I got no money, no memory
I am broke and have no recollection of events

I got no money, I got no memory
I am broke and have no recollection of events

Krishna is Time and Death.
Context: J Robert Oppenheimer used this quote to display regrets about his invention of nuclear weapons.

The quote “Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds” is not directly from the Bhagavad Gita but rather a paraphrase of a verse in the Gita.

Translated into English, this verse means:

“The Supreme Lord said: Time I am, the great destroyer of the worlds, and I have come here to destroy all people.”

The verse is part of a conversation between Lord Krishna and Arjuna on the battlefield of Kurukshetra. Krishna reveals his universal form, a divine manifestation displaying his supreme power and cosmic nature. Arjuna is awe-struck and becomes aware of the immense destructive power that Krishna wields as the God of Time.

Oppenheimer, who was familiar with the Bhagavad Gita, invoked this quote to express the profound impact and consequences of the atomic bomb, which, like Krishna, brought immense destructive power and the potential to annihilate entire worlds.

Shri Bhagavän said: I am time, the mighty destroyer of the worlds, and I am here to annihilate all these people.
Even without your efforts, not one warrior in either army will survive.

SärärthA-VArñIëé PrAkäçIkä-VåttI: Çré Bhagavän is telling Arjuna, “I am all-destroying time, and at present I have accepted this gigantic form.
I am here to annihilate Duryodhana and others.
The result of My action in this form will be that except for you five Päëòavas, no one on this battlefield will remain alive.
Even without your endeavour or the efforts of other warriors like you, all will be devoured within the jaws of terrible time, because in My form as time, I have already taken their lives.
Those heroes who are present on both sides will definitely enter the mouth of death, even without doing battle. Therefore, O Arjuna, if you remain aloof from the battle, you will fall from your svadharma (own duty), and still they will not be saved.”

Vishnu as Krishna says:
कर्मण्ये वाधिका रस्ते मा फलेषु कदाचन।
मा कर्म फल हेतु र्भूर्मा ते सङ्गोऽस्त्व कर्मणि॥

Read as:

Karmanye vadhika raste, Ma phaleshu kadachana
Ma karma phala he tur bhuh, ma te sangotsva karmanye

Mean:
You have a right to “Karma” (actions) but never to any Fruits thereof. You should never be motivated by the results of your actions, nor should there be any attachment in not doing your prescribed activities.

Oppenheimer did what he has to do. It was his karma. In good hands it ll be good. In bad it will be bad. It's upto the person to decide..

Jai Shree Krishna 🙏

@@ximono They began producing the atomic bomb because they saw that Hitler showed no signs of stopping his warpath across Europe, and thought it prudent to have a weapon capable of stopping him. Oppenheimer, as a Jew, was probably pretty unnerved seeing as his people were being genocided at the time. What’s more, any effort to be made to stop Hitler developing his own nuclear weaponry was a prime objective, as you typically don’t want genocidal dictators to have access to weapons of mass destruction.

It wasn’t until Hitler unalived himself, and they had already sunk billions of dollars into development, that Truman ultimately decided to drop the bombs on Japan. But it’s not like he had the capacity to say “hey guys Hitler is dead we can stop production now” and the US government was going to go “oh okay!”

That's all true. I understand the justifications for beating ze nazis to it. And I suppose it would most likely be achieved somewhere sometime anyway. But he chose to take it upon him, and to live with it for the rest of his life. I think most people would have said no to that prospect.

The look in his eyes is the most haunting thing I’ll ever see. He gave humanity the power to destroy each other on a scale that no one had ever seen before, and he died with the blood of several thousand innocents on his hands because of it. The most tragic thing of all is that he died right in the height of the Cold War, when the US and the Soviet Union were engaged in a nuclear arms race, both fearing the one would bomb the other. Oppenheimer died believing that he was responsible for the end of humanity, and that was a burden no man should ever have had to bear.

I don't think people realize that in these words Oppenheimer was not referring to himself with "I am become Death." Death (Vishnu) in this case was the bomb, the pure destructive and chaotic force of atomic weaponry. Oppenheimer is the Prince that is left in absolute awe of what Vishnu can do, the human in the presence of this supernatural force, and has no other choice in the matter but his duty. Oppenheimer is not proud of the decision he had made in what it has led humans to do and what we could almost do, but he knew his responsibilities and he built this terrible weapon because in his mind it was the only way to guarantee peace.

I'm merely stating how Oppenheimer rationalized the situation, which to him was recognizing that the Axis Powers were the gravest threat to the world at that place and time, and he did the only thing he thought would contribute to the preventing of more death.

No one can deny the fact that the number of people died in Japan cannot be justified and it's nerve wrecking to think about what those people would have gone through but seeing the extent of the atomic bomb in action, every nation thinks twice to rage a war. In a way, he did end all war in a way. It takes a lot of courage to go through that kind of emotional damage and public humiliation and still take the responsibility of his actions.

It absolutely can be justified, and to say it can't displays a total misunderstanding of the Japanese empire in that period. The alternative to the nukes was a full on land invasion, which strategists at the time estimated millions of people on both sides would die in. American soldiers, Japanese soldiers, and Japanese civilians. At the time, the Japanese military was training women and children how to make and use improvised weapons such as spears in order to kill as many GIs as possible. The Japanese didn't surrender, ever. They hoped to die for the emperor. They fought to the very last man, and booby trapped their own bodies to take out soldiers after death. Dropping the nukes was the most humane way to end the war.

After the first bomb was dropped, there was talk about surrender in the Japanese government. This was met with a full military coup consisting of nearly half of the military, with the purpose of continuing in with the war. Hirohitos unconditional surrender took place secretly, on a secret location, at a secret time, because of this.

If you don't think that the nuke was justified, ask yourself why it took a second bomb for them to surrender?

@gentlefires

4y↑373

@@duydo7614 Yeah I know. He quotes from the Hindu sacred text, the Bhagavad-Gita. But the context in which he says this quote is important. Its original meaning is different. The scripture is about a warrior prince, Arjuna, and Lord Krishna, an incarnation of Vishnu. Arjuna seeks advice from Krishna as he is torn if he should go into battle against an army comprised of friends and family, to which Krishna responds – transforming into his collosal true from – with what Oppenheimer is quoting here. But Sanskrit scripture is really tricky to translate, and this isn't the only way to translate it. Kirshna teaches Arjuna the philosophy of Dharma, which is the "holy duty". And the word death, can also be translated into "world-destroying time". It's complicated to explain because you have to get into Hindu beliefs of life and death. It's a whole thing. However the meaning Oppenheimer gives to this quote is a lot more literal. This is another quote from him, after the Trinity Test:
"In some sort of crude sense which no vulgarity, no humour, no overstatements can quite extinguish, the physicists have known sin, and this is a knowledge which they cannot lose.”
It's obvious the burden he was carrying at seeing his creation be used to eradicate innocent lives.

@titanqueen7217

One thing that stands out to me is that when Oppenheimer talks about the Bhagavad Gita, he seems to liken himself to the prince, and not to Vishnu. In the Bhagavad Gita, Prince Arjuna is initially reluctant to fight in the battle of Kurukshetra, because some of his family are on the opposing side, and he doesn’t want to have to kill them. It’s then that Krishna reveals his true form, that of Vishnu, and says the ever famous quote. In doing so, Vishnu tells Arjuna that the deaths of his family members are the will of the gods, and even if he doesn’t fight, they will die anyway. I suppose that Oppenheimer thought of the invention of the bomb the same way—If he didn’t do it, someone else would, and the thousands of deaths caused by the bomb were inevitable. Like Arjuna, Oppenheimer was doomed to bear the burden of having blood on his hands.

@Gamerboy-gl7di

@amoeba5547

19w↑9

Maybe you read the wrong book, Krishna tried to stop Duryodhana the antoganist to this war but he wanted to fight. The reasoning to pursue Arjuna was, if he did not fight he would be wiped out and if he left the battle field he would be a disgrace to all the people who looked up to him for abandoning his duties. Instead of fear of death or guilt of killing his relatives, Krishna told Arjuna that it was his duty as a "Kshatriya" warrior to fight irrespective of his emotions. Do the duty sincerely leaving the results to the Lord Krishna, that way he will not be bit back by his actions(karma).
