In typical Kelley Polar form, this song is extremely weird, creepy and confusing but as interesting and addictive as they come. Given title “Chrysanthemum†(mushroom cloud analogy) and lyrics (â€Two atoms kiss and what a funny valentineâ€) I think this song is about a nuclear attack on humanity, tragic. The chorus is nothing short of fu@$%d up goodness.
Make a chrysanthemum of every human head
Make a chrysanthemum and kill them in their beds
Make a chrysanthemum till everybody’s deadâ€
I’ll be posting more from Kelley, his latest album I Need You to Hold on While the Sky Is Falling has been in heavy rotation. Very space age, very good.
