    I'm late, but thank you so much for doing that research! NGL, would love to own a typwriter someday. It's supercool to know which one Lana was (most likely) using in that iconic video.

    My impression is that it's about a feeling of darkness that the narrator has from the place that she's in, while the people around her are getting off on the fact that they're in a place associated with Manson.
    Warning: disgusting imagery in spoiler.
     
     
    The song seems to be about some people escaping into heroin, and some escaping from it. "I'd be lying if I said I wasn't sick of it" is also about the need for escape (similar to the scene in 'Afraid'), and the sickness that surrounds heroin use - the sickness of addiction; the sickness of withdrawal; the existential sickness of being in that physical place.
     
    I've only just heard the song in the past couple of hours so it's still sinking in, but it's one of her best works.

    I think Kathleen Heffernan did the LMLYLAW font/red Chemtrails logo in the same style and Ellie did the VBBOTG and COTCC album cover fonts, so that’s why, but yes! Confirmation!!

    So as usual, I don't have the answer, but I wanted to thank you for asking it, and sending me down a rabbit hole of looking at pictures of old typewriters. This one is an electric typewriter, probably from the 80s onwards, but I couldn't figure out/recognise the logo. I found this blog that is written by someone who hopefully could answer the question with more detail than you ever imagined. Let me know how you go!

    I love the way she sings "control" in White Dress, it sounds like she's saying country and control at the same time

    Favorite Lyrics from Each Song
    White Dress: "Summer, summer's almost gone. We were talking about life, we were sitting outside til dawn. But I would still go back if I could do it all again, I thought. Because it made me feel, made me feel like a god."
    Chemtrails Over the Country Club: "You're in the wind, I'm in the water. Nobody's son, nobody's daughter. Watching the chemtrails over the country club. Suburbia, Barbara Road Market. What to do next? Baby, what of it? White picket chemtrails over the country club."
    Tulsa Jesus Freak: "We should go back to Arkansas. Trade this body for that can of gin, like a little piece of heaven. No more candle in the wind."
    Let Me Love You Like a Woman: "I come from a small town, how bout you? I only mention it cuz I'm ready to leave L.A. and I want you to come. 80 miles north or south will do. I don't care where as long you're with me, and I'm with you."
    Wild at Heart: "Time after time, I think about leaving, but you know that I never do just cuz you keep me believing."
    Dark but Just a Game: "A pretty little fool to think exceptions to the rule just walk around like you and me, this way."
    Not All Who Wander Are Lost: "You talk to God like I do. I think you know the same secrets that I do."
    Yosemite: "I remember watching How Green Was My Valley. Then I was thinking "how deep was the canyon that you came from?" Television static was quite overwhelming. Was it because of the cabin and the candles in the wind?"
    Breaking Up Slowly: "I don't want to live with a life of regret. I don't wanna end up like Tammy Wynette."
    Dance Till We Die: "Clementine's not just a fruit. It's my daughter's chosen name."
    For Free: I don't have a favorite lyric because I don't really like it

    Are there any other veterans of the board here who were here when Chemtrails Over The Country Club was released?

    Madonna did that before the internet and artists being cancelled daily, and got a tonne of grief for it. I can't even imagine the shit storm if Lana did it now.
