What Are These Lyrics About??? I was listening to this song, always liked it...  ...but I've never really understood what it's about..lol..only the vaguest of ideas, really. 
Can you decipher it?? Pineapple Head ~Crowded House (and it's actually a very pretty song..) Detective is flat No longer is always flat out got the number of the getaway car didn't get very far As lucid as hell and these images moving so fast like a fever So close to the bone I don't feel too well And if you choose to take that path I will play you like a shark And I'll clutch at your heart I'll come flying like a spark to inflame you Sleeping alone for pleasure The pinapple head It spins and it spins like a number I hold Don't remember if she was my friend It was a long time ago And if you choose to take that path I will play you like a shark And I'll clutch at your heart I'll come flying like a spark to inflame you Sleeping alone for pleasure The pineapple head It spins and it spins like a number I hold Don't remember if she was my friend ...it was a long time ago And if you choose to take that path Would you come to make me pay I will play you like a shark And I'll clutch at your heart I'll come flying like a spark To inflame you Any ideas??...  | |

Pineapple Head always brings to mind Tina Turner's Private Dancer hairstyle. Come to think of it, David Bowie also had a pineapple hairdo at some point.
Don't worry about Crowded House, they're from New Zealand, so we forgive them for not making any sense at all, whatsoever.  | |
