Lemon juice up in your eyes = crying fake tears (that’s what actors would do if they needed to cry in a scene).

[@metalteen.]

@@jameswatt5557 ahhh that makes sense, thx I've been wondering about that for days XD

[@jamesnewman9547]

It's also a double entendre like so many of tools lyrics. Lemon juice is also a reference to urine, which you got in your eye when you pissed on his black kettle. While also being a reference to the fake tears as mentioned! Great song lyrically.

[@carlakane3313]

The song is about hypocrisy. "The pot calling the kettle black" is a popular saying.

[@user-wk4iu5sw4y]

TOOL ARMY UNITE!

[@danielkeene3852]

An old saying that points out hypocrisy is "the pot calling the kettle black". In this old saying it's the pot that is the hypocrite. So... the song is about hypocrites with allusions to corrupt justice systems (kangaroo courts) and recreational substances that are banned (pot). Another old saying about hypocrisy is "don't throw stones if you live in a glass house", meaning that if you are engaged in the same behavior/activities you are admonishing that you are no better than the person you are berating. The lemon juice in the eye is a reference to how actors will put lemon juice in their eyes to produce tears for an acting scene, or in this case it's about crocodile tears or fake outrage.

Good call on avoiding official music vids. Tool makes them super freaky. But worse, yet they’re usually censored. Breaks the flow. I didn’t hear a shout out to the drummer, did I? Did I mention Forty Six & 2? That’s a warm-up.🌀

[@lifefordummies]

The part in the beginning you called the guitar part is actually played on the bass! 😀 love this tune. Super fun to play! 🤙

[@johdousha]

Such great Tool and so much more to discover. (Forty-six and 2, Pneuma, Sober, etc.) Suggestion: Cherub Rock by the Smashing Pumpkins.

[@heyskipj]

🤘🏼I was just thinking Forty Six & two but what Smashing Pumpkins song…

[@LanceThompsonKssooner]

Here for TOOL! Greatest band ever. Not a single bad song.

[@AndICanTalk2]

Definitely think with Tool specifically, but a number of other groups, it is best to do lyric videos. Tool has a lot of meaningful lyrics, and sometimes the same verse could mean several things if you think about them. Enjoy learning wherever you can. Explore it all. Listen. Great, yet simple reaction.

[@z.1628]

Just, keep listening to Tool, kids,there's nothing better than that, you'll see when you're 43,like me, and I was just like you, not exactly, but u know what I mean, I was 15 or something like that when I started... Life is crazy, but Tool always does the job, whatever you need, it only keeps giving and giving.. Greetings.

[@crazylegslife]

I remember when these guys came out 30ish years ago and I just kind of avoided them, until recently, it was a reaction video to this song started me on my Tool Journey. I am a guitar player and everything about this band blows my mind. I wish I had been into them when they first came out.

[@rachelhart.2386]

Yasss. Tool. ❤

[@Beachedwhale_]

I dont know what the legalities of pot are over there, but Rosetta Stoned by Tool was one of my favorite songs to jam out to when i was able to smoke. PS, dont smoke unless you're of legal smoking age, lol.

[@guitaroffthecuff-davids5528]

First time watching you. Love your reaction style. You have a new team member. I'm excited to see where your journey takes you, and to see what bands you get most excited about. There is so much out there. I'm 53 and I'm still finding new stuff - current and past. My tastes change. So I appreciate bands or artists today that I didn't before. Your tastes will change over time. You will find new things that will blow your mind, and some simple things that are easily overlooked but just about everyone does because it just works. Anyways, I'm rambling here. I encourage you to stay curious and follow a path that YOU like. This is your journey. We are just viewers. Stay you. And stay awesome.

[@metalteen.]

@@guitaroffthecuff-davids5528 Thank you!!! 🙏

[@Veggamattic]

Tool is what metal aspires to be on it's best day.

[@syntheticvocalist-p472]

Okay cool, you started with the introduction song, now. You should go all the way back and start. As in from the beginning, because only then will you see the timeline, and you will see exactly WHY Tool is an amazing band. Pull a Megamind 1 and go back, all the way back to where it began, and I’ll meet you on the other side. 🌀

[@metalteen.]

@@syntheticvocalist-p472 see you there 🫡

[@RosettaStoned462]

💯

[@dan.j.boydzkreationz]

"The Witness" by Adam Jones maybe. The actual video, because the music is pretty basic and instrumental. It's ¾s of Tool.

[@chadbeast420]

I heard the call. Have fun on the journey.

[@susiejo143]

Best band in the world❤ Danny best living drummer❤ They make no bad music...truth

[@joehochgreve5710]

Tool is the best show in town. The most talented band likely ever. I would strongly recommend Pneuma, Descending, and Lateralus! Welcome to the Tool Army!

[@metalteen.]

@@joehochgreve5710 thx! 🤘

[@timwirasnik5878]

Lemon Juice Up In Your eye means your going to cry ( lemon juice makes you tear up when it hits your eyes) or Fake Tears!

[@crystalscolza1663]

That's a pretty good interpretation. I could see it, thoughts and prayers and all.

[@eatpowder]

Gonna be fun to watch this kid spiral!!! My advice, some songs are much harder to understand in a foreign 2nd language is English. Some songs (Right in Two, Pneuma, The Patient…) let you interpret the meaning for yourself, and no one is wrong. Others (Lateralus, Descending, 46&2, Jambi…) just take you for a ride. (I know they all do!) So, if you get into a song like this one that has a very cryptic slang spoken, just let the lyrics go, and come back to them later… enjoy!! Greetings from Montana

[@metalteen.]

@@eviljeep Thank you!! :)

[@abangbangpow]

Lemon juice up in your eyes means to cry false tears.

[@LemmyGibbler]

Check out All That Remains “divine.” A bit more aggressive but also more modern. Great reaction!

[@mstorrboy]

Tool is timeless. All that remains is pretty dope too.

[@gregfewer5590]

That's a good track! I hadn't listened to Tool before. My suggestion for a track: Crawling by Linkin Park (although KRWLNG, the remix version is good too)

[@wesd3742]

Dig a little deeper, you just found the tip of the iceberg.

[@crystalscolza1663]

These lyrics for this song in particular are the most metaphoric the most confusing out of all of them. Please do continue to do lyrics for the rest of them.

[@PilloryClinton]

Old American guy just discovering your channel this morning. It looks to me as if you put a lot of work into this video and I can appreciate your effort. I’m going to check your playlists to see if you have reacted to any iron maiden, which happens to be my favorite metal band. You definitely have a new sub. Thank you young sir. Greetings from Florida. My recommendation to you is to blow your mind and react to Iron Maiden’s classic song Hallowed Be Thy Name. You will NOT regret it. I highly recommend you listening to the studio version from their Number Of The Beast album before you listen to their fantastic live versions.

[@metalteen.]

@@PilloryClinton Thank you!! 🙏I would love to have a first time reaction to that song but the problem is I also love Iron Maiden! But I sure can react to some songs that havent heard yet! Thx for the idea!!

[@PilloryClinton]

@@metalteen. You are clearly a man of good taste.

[@dilligaf25015]

You should listen to AlterBridge-Words Darker Than Their Wings - live from Royal Albert Hall

[@R8drdave]

Jambi, sober, vicarious, eulogy, pushit list keys/rosetta stoned

[@Kevin-uc4ce]

In my opinion, You can't be a Metalhead unless you pay homage to Black Sabbath I highly recommend Under the Sun (Ozzy) Sign of the Southern Cross (Dio) & Trashed (Gillan). Climb aboard The World of Metal has such an Adventure planned for you....8

[@nephilliumsilver8826]

The tool rabbit hole will scare them lol

[@buck-mq3qo]

I see the guitars in the background so I gotta challenge for you. Do a reaction to "pnueuma" and see if you can call the time signatures for the guitars vs the drums you'll see how/why they sound different from other bands

[@bigdaddypiggy]

Be careful of what rabbit hole you go down. There are 2 clear ones. Follow Maynard and lose the band. Follow the band and you forget that Maynard is also an instrument. The fact that you haven't mentioned the drumming explains you aren't there yet. I can't wait until you get the whole thing and have you oh shit moment.
