"Delilah" is a song by the punk cabaret duo The Dresden Dolls, released on their second studio album Yes, Virginia....
The song is speculated to have many meanings, ranging from Delilah (the subject of the ballad) being a woman who continues to come back to a man who doesn't treat her right, from Delilah being a prostitute who has fallen for one of her clients.
Amanda Palmer, the head Doll, wrote herself into the song, being a friend of Delilah.
| “ | In this same bar, Where you slammed |
” |
In the song, Amanda is saying that Delilah is 'an unrescuable schizo' or else she's 'on the rag', blaming either of those for Delilah's actions.
