Goon Moon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Said he who stands
Behind the chair
A broken table there
Every Christian lion-hearted man will show you
Every Christian lion-hearted man will show you (will show you)
Don't walk so tall
Before you crawl
For every child
Is thinking of something wild
Every Christian lion-hearted man will show you
Every Christian lion-hearted man will show you (will show you)
[?]
Every Christian lion-hearted man will show you
Every Christian lion-hearted man will show you
Every Christian lion-hearted man will show you (will show you)
Every Christian lion-hearted man will show you
Every Christian lion-hearted man will show you (will show you)
Every Christian lion-hearted man will show you
Every Christian lion-hearted man will show you (will show you)
Every Christian lion-hearted man will show you
The lyrics of Goon Moon's song "Every Christian Lion Hearted Man Will Show You" are open to interpretation. The song seems to be about the idea that there is something wild and untamed within all of us, and that it is important to embrace this part of ourselves. The first verse describes a broken table and someone standing behind a chair, which could represent a sense of instability or chaos. The refrain repeats the idea that every "Christian lion-hearted man" will show you something, almost like a promise of guidance or wisdom.
The second verse tells the listener not to "walk so tall before you crawl," which could suggest the importance of humility in embracing our inner wildness. The line "for every child is thinking of something wild" reinforces the idea that this untamed part of ourselves comes naturally, perhaps even before we are fully conscious of it.
Overall, the lyrics of the song seem to suggest that embracing our wild, untamed selves is a key part of our humanity, and that there is something universal about this experience. The use of the phrase "Christian lion-hearted man" is somewhat puzzling, as it is unclear what this phrase means in the context of the song. It could be interpreted as a reference to strength, courage, and religious faith all at once, or it could simply be a poetic phrase meant to convey a sense of power and wisdom.
