5-4-1
Aaron Waters Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You'll come calling, slowly crawling
Attitude defined
Take and conquer, is your honor
Weak of soul and mind
Call on the five
Keep hope alive

Call the 5-4-1
Anytime you say you want us
Call the 5-4-1
Everytime you say you need us
Call the 5-4-1
Anytime you say you want us
Call the 5-4-1
Everytime you say you need us

Go!

Anytime you say you want us
Call the 5-4-1
Everytime you say you need us

Overall Meaning

In Aaron Waters's song 5-4-1, he talks about someone who is slowly crawling and comes calling with an attitude defined. The person he is referring to has a "take and conquer" mentality, which is their honor, and they are weak of soul and mind. These lyrics suggest that the person he is talking about is a manipulative and controlling individual who likes to take advantage of weaker people. The line "call on the five" suggests that this person may have a group of people who they manipulate and control, and they call on them whenever they need them. The line "keep hope alive" may suggest that the people who are being controlled by this person are holding onto the hope that they will eventually break free from their control.


The chorus of the song repeatedly says "call the 5-4-1 anytime you say you want us, every time you say you need us." This line suggests that the person who is being controlled is always available to the person in power whenever they call. The repetition of this line may suggest that this is a common occurrence and that the person in power is constantly calling on their group of people to do what they want.


Overall, the lyrics in the song 5-4-1 by Aaron Waters suggest a story of manipulation and control. The person who is being controlled is weak and powerless, and the person in power takes advantage of them whenever they need them.
