This is probably a reference to Ghost Dance, the band formed by Gary Marx after he left The Sisters. "A former proprietary name for an amphetamine, methylamphetamine hydrochloride, a soft drug, but used by drug addicts." - Chambers dictionary. I remember taking it once in Chicago, and waking up a week later wondering what had happened in between" - Eldritch (unknown source, quoted on the Dominion mailing list). The comparison between guns and drugs is a typical Eldritch riff, notably "a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain inside" from Temple of Love. 'Hot metal' is probably a reference to the needle, though it might be something to do with guns. Methedrine is a form of amphetamine and is apparently best taken intravenously. Lucretia Borgia was a notorious poisoner, c.f. The Family Borgia were notorious power freaks operating in renaissance Italy, famous for their unscrupulous operating techniques, and much admired by Machiavelli. Eldritch: "Patricia always strikes me as a Lucretia-type person". Lucretia Borgia is the obvious reference, but it might also be referring a number of other historical Lucretias. Translation: "I was the most important one in the band, I'm back, I don't care what anyone else thinks or thinks I should do, I've got a crazy goth bird with me now and I'm going to make a cheeky reference to ex-Sisters member Gary Marx's new band Ghost Dance." Reason: Translation: "I was the most important one in the band, I'm back, I don't care what anyone else thinks or thinks I should do, I've got a crazy goth bird with me now and I'm going to make a cheeky reference to ex-Sisters member Gary Marx's new band Ghost Dance." Lucretia, my reflection, dance the ghost with me" The press coverage of the split and the fallout afterwards.Įveryone thought Eldritch was retired (and/)or dead. The whole thing is a metaphor for the release of the new album and the return of the new incarnation of The Sisters after the breakup of the original. This is Eldritch's "welcome to the band, Patricia (Morrison)!" song.
I think most people know what this is about (maybe?), but in the interest of wasting time while I'm waiting for dinner, here it is again: I agree with xinnieful and errky that the quoted part is definitely the highlight of the song. Lucretia, my direction, dance the ghost with me Such things I hear, they don't make sense Lucretia, my reflection, dance the ghost with me I hear the sons of the city and dispossessed
