Morphine lyrics

[DancingTheDream]

To me when he sings "Demerol, Demerol.. oh god he's taking demerol... hee, hee, heee"

Its almost sarcastic..  like he is laughing at the thought.. thats what he wants people to believe, and everyone is freaking out that he is taking Dermerol and he is just sitting back and laughing.

This song is one of the keys to me..   if MJ is dead then he was psychic.  No other explanation

Cnn demerol make you laugh?

[DancingTheDream]

Cnn demerol make you laugh?

Hm..  dont know.  Its a painkiller thats all i know.  Ive never took it myself.


I listen to it as if Michael is laughing at everyone freaking out that he is taking Dermerol.

Its such a deep song with so many hidden meanings.  Michael was a genious.

I have never really got to understand that song at first i thought it was a cry for help then i thought it was  a song to wind up people that thought he was doing that but it sounds so angry and desperate but I still love that song

I have never really got to understand that song at first i thought it was a cry for help then i thought it was  a song to wind up people that thought he was doing that but it sounds so angry and desperate but I still love that song

The first lines though.. how can we explain them?  A heart attack..  he got flat.. i need your body...

[mumof3]

Then he's pleading trust in me.

[DancingTheDream]

Then he's pleading trust in me.

My thoughts at the beginning were it was the doctor who was saying to Michael,  "relax... just put your trust in me..  i wont convert you (i wont get you addicted)"

OR

Its Michael making a direct plea to US to trust HIM.

Hmmm...  so many layers.

I think it's totally him telling us to trust him. That body part is such a giveaway!

I agree with you, DTD.  Actually the whole song is in a sense sarcastic.  He's telling what people believe about him.   You hate your race, you're just a liar, you hate your kind, you're throwing shame, are all rumors and lies about him, and he is including the "Oh my, its Demerol Michael Jackson is a morphine addict" rumor also.

[suesuzzfaithkeeper]

does anyone have a music program to strip his lyrics where all we hear is the music??..that way we can hear more of what all is going on in the background..
huggs n faith to all

[MashMike]

i have always been sure that this song along with Xcape are the clear evidences of hoaxing his death

[MissG]

I guess that to understand the meaning of the song deeper, I would need to step out of my belief about Michael being some kind of "voice healer".

What I see then is a great artistic piece, where the song becomes tridimensional.

When singing Morphine, the sound, the voice, the music and the lyrics represent an extreme state of mind. Morphine analgesics are used to relieve severe to agonizing pain and suffering.

Demerol is used to treat moderate to severe pain

When he sings about morphine, his pain is extreme, all the unjustice and comments and critics about him.

One last thing before i take my hoax holiday.  

You should read Bonnie Cox latest blog on these lyrics.  She has done a great job.  Ive never noticed the respirator sound in the chorus before.  It gives me the chills.

I'd like to hear the demo for this song, I have all Mikes music on my I pod, but just went and got all of the cds for my car. On the new off the wall and thriller albums they have Quincy Jones and other producers talking about the tracks Mike ect...and demos. I'd like to ask the producer/s whom worked with Mike in the studio on this song. When this song was written.....we all know Mike wrote stuff years before they came out. Just some thoughts.
