Polaroid is spanish (or Español) for "Polaroid".
The name "Polaroid" originates from two words that described a preceding relationship with one of the associates of Polaroid. This member dated a gentlewoman that had been diagnosed with a "bipolar disorder" (manic-depressive illness). The particular Polaroid associate endured the illness for months feeling like a robot and/or "droid", in a sense. The Polaroid colleague finally took the words bi-polar and incorporated the word droid and subsequently resulted with this concept we call: "Polaroid".

Polaroid Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To whomever it may concern
And theres been a fall in the equations
Of what we have
Cause in a town like this
Keeping a secret is a weakness
And I walk these city streets like a plank
And the scene back home is killing everything
Its killing you its killing me
I have been working on this paycheck
I have been working 9 to 5
And theres been a fall in the equations of what
We have
