Whatevs Kings of Leon: Yo Steps Is on Fire!

Posted by D. Patrick Rodgers on Thu, Jan 8, 2009 at 10:39 AM

You know, I could never really make out what the hell C-Foll is saying in any of his songs. Especially this one. But I'd like to think he's talking about fire safety. If it wasn't for these misheard lyrics, I probably never would have made it all the way through the song.

Anyhow, KOL's Madison Square Garden date is only weeks away, and there may or may not be some tickets left. OK, there definitely are. Could Nashville's prodigal sons sell out the world's most famous arena? I don't know. But I do know that this version of "Sex on Fire" beats the hell out of the weird, chicken-eating bondage fantasy original version.

i think the original title for this song was "piss on fire". much like johnny cash's "ring of fire", it's all about gonorrhea (or as the kids say "the clap")

"Ring of Fire" was about Hemorrhoids.

Doesn't "the clap" refer to chlamydia? Anyway, I always wonder if Followill knew people would accuse him of singing about VD and just didn't give a damn, or if he genuinely had no idea how ridiculous it sounds.

Wow, that song was worse than I thought it would be and I couldn't finish it. I did make it all the way to the picture of Devin Townsend in this fake video though. Now THAT guy is good. What a freak too, haha...

nope, the clap is definitely gonorrhea. people call chlamydia "good time clams"

I remember Dr. House once mentioned that as far as bad news goes, chlamydia is pretty good.
